Former Hansen’s Furniture
Ray & Sylvia Hansen founded Hansen Furniture at 703 Memorial Highway. In 1959, they commenced construction on a 100×60-foot, $40,000 new store on the northeast corner of Main Avenue and Fraine Barracks Road, near the Liberty Memorial Bridge. It remained there until closing 2005.
A second location was established at 201 E Main Avenue in 1983, replacing Conlin’s Furniture at that site. Zimmerman’s Furniture now operates its clearance center from that building.
After several years vacant, the former building became home to Epic Sports in 2013. Its original store has long been home to Bill’s Upholstery.
