A Robinsons-May store in Riverside, CA with its sign removed leaving a 'label scar', shortly before being converted into a Macy's in 2006.

Robinsons-May was a chain of department stores operating in Southern California, Arizona, and Nevada, from 1993 until 2006. It was created when May Department Stores combined two of its chains, May Company California and J. W. Robinson's chains. Its headquarters was at the former May Company California headquarters at its Laurel Plaza store in North Hollywood, Los Angeles. When Federated took over May Department Stores Company on August 30, 2005, Robinsons-May was dissolved, with some stores becoming branches of Macy's, while others were closed, sold, or transformed into branches of Bloomingdale's. Robinsons-May had 45 stores.
