- Boston Stores, originally and later still often called The Boston Store was a chain of department stores based in Inglewood, California, just southwest of Central Los Angeles, operating from 1934 through 1996. The chain grew to 20 stores by 1990, 14 in California and 6 in Arizona, with around 1,000 employees. By 1990 the headquarters had been relocated to Carson, around 13 miles south of Inglewood. There have been dozens of stores called "Boston Store" in the U.S., including J. W. Robinson's which went by that name in the late 19th and early 20th century in its downtown Los Angeles locations, and two unrelated "Boston Stores"- on operating in 1925 at 320 S. Broadway in Downtown Los Angeles in the old Blackstone's Department Store building and another in 1939 with branches at 331 S. Broadway in the old Jacoby Bros. store and at 4755 Whittier Blvd. in East Los Angeles. Neither of them are related to the Inglewood-based Boston Stores. Ira Kaufman started the chain with a single store in downtown Inglewood in 1934. (en)
