Woolworth Company Starting Work

Marietta Daily Times, April 2, 1924

Work is starting this week on remodeling of the Union Block, which is to house the F. W. Woolworth Company's five and ten cent store in Marietta, and it is expected that the place will be open for business within 60 days.

The store will occupy two-thirds of the Union Block, the parts that are owned by the Blume estate and by Carrie Greenway. A new front will be put in, an elevator will be installed, and it will be made a thoroughly modern building.

A building permit was granted to a representative of the company on Wednesday. It is estimated that the repairs to the building will cost $13,000.
