Are you thinking of Foley's? I know here in the Houston area there were several malls that now have two Macy's, like Willowbrook mall and the Galleria.

Macy's bought a number of regional department stores years ago, and then eventually it ditched those names and made them all Macy's. Up here in the Northwest they bought The Bon Marche. But I thought the chains they bought were in markets that didn't already have Macy's...it sounds like that wasn't always the case, though.

I worked for Macy's back in the 80s - they ended up closing almost all of their Texas locations. Then, they purchased Foley's, and made many of their locations into Macy's.
