Question: Boise Towne Square is a mall in the western United States, located in Boise, Idaho, it opened in 1988 after more than 20 years of planning, and features over 186 stores, including Macy's (formerly The Bon Marché), that  was a department store chain launched in Seattle, Washington, in which country?
Context: Karcher Mall is an enclosed shopping mall located in Nampa, Idaho, U.S..  The mall opened in August 1965 with Buttrey Food & Drug, Rasco-Tempo, and Skaggs Drug Centers as anchor stores.  The mall was the largest shopping center in the Treasure Valley until 1988 when the Boise Towne Square Mall was opened in Boise.  The new mall directed traffic away for the Karcher Mall and several retailers, including 20-year-old anchor JCPenney, departed the mall to move to Boise.  Since then, the mall has been sold to numerous owners, each of which attempted to revitalize the mall to mixed results.  Today, the mall has 28 stores, including anchor stores Burlington Coat Factory, Discount Furniture, Jo-Ann Fabrics, Ross Dress for Less, and Mor Furniture, and is owned by Milan Properties, Inc. Buttrey Food & Drug was a chain of grocery stores founded in Havre, Montana and formerly headquartered in Great Falls, Montana.  The company was founded in 1896 as a chain of department stores branded Buttrey Department Store.  The company opened grocery stores in 1935 and sold off its department store division following a 1966 acquisition by grocery company The Jewel Companies, Inc. Jewel was sold to American Stores in 1984 and Buttrey was sold off as separate company in 1990.  The company was sold to its main competitor, Boise, Idaho based Albertsons, in January 1998 and the Buttrey name was retired.  At that time, Buttrey was operating 44 stores in Montana, Wyoming, and North Dakota with a revenue of US$391.4 million.  As of today, most former Buttrey stores continue to operate under the Albertsons banner. Charles Towne Square was an indoor shopping mall located in North Charleston, South Carolina opened in 1976 by developer Melvin Simon & Associates.  It was most noted for its large "town square" style clock and children's train ride during Christmas time.  The mall's tenants included original anchors Montgomery Ward, JCPenney and Edward's, a local department store which would later be sold to Kuhn's-Big K and renamed "Big K-Edwards."  Big K-Edwards closed and Wilson's Catalog Showrooms moved into the space.  The Wilson's chain was later sold to Service Merchandise.  In addition to the mall's anchors, the shopping complex also featured approximately 75 specialty stores and a General Cinemas.  The mall opened with great fanfare in 1976 with a Charlestonian bi-centennial theme.  Television celebrity Ed McMahon led the festivities, complete with American revolutionary war-era costumes.  Other luminaries included World War II hero Mark Clark, football great Rosie Grier, and Claude Akins. The Sample, also known as The Sample Dress Shop or The Sample Shop, was a family-owned, high end department store specializing in upscale ladies clothing and furnishings based in Buffalo, New York.  The original store was established by Anne W. Bunis on Hertel Avenue in North Buffalo in 1928.  The company started when Mrs. Bunis returned from a trip to New York City with a set of 48 "sample" dresses, which she in turn sold for $12.75 each.  Expansion occurred during the early 1950s with stores at Lancaster, New York; Lockport, New York; Thruway Plaza (later Thruway Mall) in Cheektowaga, New York; South Buffalo at 2182 Seneca Street; and Downtown Buffalo at 554 Main Street, the former home of Flint & Kent.  The Downtown Buffalo store closed in 1959.  In 1961, a store opened in Amherst, New York and in 1969, a store opened at Seneca Mall in West Seneca, New York.  In 1971, a store opened at Eastern Hills Mall, with another store opening up at the Summit Park Mall in 1972, and in 1985, a store opened in McKinley Mall in Hamburg, New York.  The last store in the then 11-store chain opened in 1988 at Walden Galleria in Cheektowaga, New York.  In 1990, following the death of company chairman Maer Bunis, the company began a rapid descent into bankruptcy.  On January 13, 1991, the flagship Hertel Avenue store closed.

Albertsons Stadium is an outdoor athletic stadium in the western United States, located on the campus of Boise State University in Boise, Idaho.  It is the home field of the Boise State Broncos of the Mountain West Conference.

Gottschalks (former NYSE ticker symbol GOT) was a middle-tier American department store that operated 58 department stores and three specialty apparel stores in six western states (California, Washington, Alaska, Idaho, Oregon, and Nevada); some locations ran as Harris-Gottschalks stores.  Prior to liquidation, it was the largest independently owned, publicly traded department store chain in the United States.  On January 14, 2009, Gottschalks filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.  This bankruptcy became a liquidation on March 31, 2009.  At least 4 prime locations became Macy's stores, while several more became Forever 21 stores. Kaufmann's was a department store that originated in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  It was owned in the early 20th century by Edgar J. Kaufmann, patron of 'Fallingwater'.  In the post-war years, the store became a regional chain in the eastern United States, and was last owned by Federated Department Stores.  At the height of its existence, it had some 59 stores in 5 states.  Formerly part of May Department Stores prior to that company's acquisition by Federated on August 30, 2005, Kaufmann's operated as part of the Filene's organization in Boston, Massachusetts.  On February 1, 2006, the Filene's/Kaufmann's organization was dissolved and the management of its stores was assumed by Macy's East and the new Macy's Midwest.  On September 9, 2006, Macy's retired the Kaufmann's name as Federated Department Stores converted the former May Company brands to its masthead.  In 2015, Macy's closed and sold the iconic Pittsburgh store for redevelopment as part of the company's ongoing reorganization of its owned properties.  Core Reality of Philadelphia, the new owners of the building, have named the proposed mixed-use property "Kaufmann's Grand on Fifth" in honor of the historic property. Le Bon Marché (lit.  "the good market", or "the good deal" in French; ] ) is a department store in Paris.  Founded in 1838 and revamped almost completely by Aristide Boucicaut in 1852, it was the first ever modern department store.  Now the property of LVMH Luxury Group, it sells a wide range of high-end goods, including food in an adjacent building at 38, rue de Sèvres, called La Grande Épicerie de Paris. The Bon Marché, whose French name translates to "the good market" or "the good deal", was a department store chain launched in Seattle, Washington, United States, in 1890 by Edward Nordhoff.  The name was influenced by Le Bon Marché, the noted Parisian retailer.  In 1929, The Bon Marché was acquired by Hahn Department Stores and reorganized as Allied Stores, a few years later.  A solid middle-range store, The Bon served largely working-class Seattle; branches were added in several Northwestern cities.  Among them were Spokane, Tacoma, Yakima, Kennewick, Longview, Walla Walla, Olympia, and Bellingham, Washington, Missoula, Montana, Great Falls, Montana, Idaho Falls, Idaho and Boise, Idaho.  Commonly known to customers as The Bon, the company dropped the Marché from their name in the late 1970s before returning it in the mid-1980s.
