The real estate company with an Independence office plans to construct apartments above and around a group of three buildings at 1720 Columbus Road. The plan would add new residential uses to the Columbus Road Peninsula just west of downtown Cleveland.
For those who grew up with the neon pink signage of Edwards Furniture in downtown Logan, the removal of the 1960s-era facade might feel like losing a bit of Cache Valleyâs past. But preserved underneath is a piece of history dating back to the 1880s â the buildingâs original storefront.
The metal facade is being removed as owner Kent Ricks hopes to restore that original storefront, with some small adjustments for modern tastes.
Edwards Furniture ended a 138-year run when it closed in Nov. 2018, and Ricks moved quickly after purchasing the building. Curate Company opened at its new location in March of the following year â meaning 26 S. Main St. has been home to the furniture business for a continuous 141 years.
