John G. Myers Company was a department store in Albany, New York. The building where the store was located, a five-story structure at 39 N. Pearl St., collapsed on Aug. 8, 1905 killing 13 people. The collapse was the worst disaster of its kind in Albany's history at the time.

After the collapse the store reopened at 37 N. Pearl St. and stayed in business until 1970.
