This sentence in the opening paragraph is meaningless to the average reader (and missing a comma): "Historically Burdines was known as the carriage-trade store in Florida". I'm tempted to remove it but I don't know if its trying to convey something useful. Is it trying to say that the chain was previously named "The Carriage-Trade Store" or is it trying to indicate that the chain was a "carriage trade store" (I could find few references to "carriage trade stores" in Google).

Burdines was merged with Macy's not acquired by it. Much like the other regional department stores owned by Federated Retail Holdings the store was renamed Burdines-Macy's in 2003. Then in 2005 Burdines along with the other stores was consolidated into Macy's because Federated decided to make the store a national brand.
