A grand dame of Chicago retailing, Carson Pirie Scott & Co. operates about 55 department stores in Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, and Wisconsin under the Carson Pirie Scott, Boston Store, and Bergner's names. Founded in 1854, Carson Pirie Scott was bought in 1989 by P.A. Bergner & Co., operator of the Bergner's and Boston Store chains. After a trip through Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, P.A. Bergner took the Carson Pirie Scott name. The company was bought in 1998 by Proffitt's, which was later renamed Saks Incorporated. Under Saks, Carson Pirie Scott's formerly leased shoe departments have been brought in-house.
