What you should know about Neiman Marcus.
Neiman Marcus is best known for occupying the historic City of Paris Rotunda, the spectacular six-story stained-glass dome and grand interior rotunda preserved after the celebrated City of Paris department store was demolished in the 1970s, saving one of San Francisco's most beloved architectural treasures through an extraordinary feat of engineering and historic preservation.
The painstaking effort to dismantle, protect, and incorporate the grand Beaux-Arts rotunda into the new flagship represented one of the city's most celebrated preservation achievements, ensuring that an architectural masterpiece remained part of Union Square despite the surrounding redevelopment. Today, the soaring stained-glass ceiling continues inspiring visitors much as it did generations ago, while the restored interior seamlessly combines San Francisco's retail heritage with contemporary luxury. Few department stores anywhere in the world possess such a remarkable architectural centerpiece, making the building itself as memorable as the shopping experience it contains.
