Answer
No, Macy's Herald Square wasn't the full block when it opened in 1902, according to Macy's own history site: from http://www.macys.com/store/about/history/index_my.jsp?bhcp=1
As for the Gimbels question, I managed to find that the Pittsburgh Downtown store closed 13 September 1986, and it seems like BATUS closed the whole chain at approximately the same time in 1986.
