The DeWitt-Seitz Marketplace stands at the center of Duluth's waterfront in the heart of Canal Park. Architect John Wangenstein designed the building in the mainstream of the commercial style, developed first by Louis Sullivan. Built in 1909 for the DeWitt-Seitz Co., a furniture jobber and mattress manufacturer, this eight story building has undergone several transformations over the years. At its start the building functioned primarily as a furniture warehouse. Changes during the depression and after WW II led to the decline of the jobber's middleman role and with it the DeWitt-Seitz furniture business. The company became almost exclusively, a manufacturer and distributor of mattresses and related products. There are 11 locally owned, wonderfully different shops and restaurants on the lower three floors.
