“Landmark” Capital Region Furniture Store Closing After 9 Decades

The New Year has kicked off with several Capital Region stores announcing they will close up shop, and now the owners of a long-time furniture store have announced they are retiring.

While we all hate to see any local business close for any reason, these closings are not necessarily a sign of the doom and gloom we have come to expect during the pandemic. Some are a sign of owners simply getting ready to move on to the next phase, and others are restructurings and retoolings.
