ON THIS SITE in 1915 Dr. Newton Stillwagon Constructed this building and divided it into two businesses, one occupied by McMullen Brothers Hardware and Harness Shop. In 1934, L.M. Rodgers opened a plumbing and hardware shop. At some point, Mr. Rodgers bought the whole building and it became L.M. Rodgers Hardware. In 1951, his son-in-law, Fred Meier, bought the building and operated Meier Hardware until 1984, when again, the building was sold and converted into Lenz Travel Services. Other businesses operating here have been RE/MAX, Prudential, later to become Berkshire Hathaway Home Services, and Airport Orbit.
Meier Hardware was on this spot from 1951-1984
In 1985, Lenz Travel opened on this spot. Lenz remained here until around 2003, when they moved the office to the basement of this building.
