TENLEYTOWN HARDWARE EXPECTED TO OPEN AT END OF MAY

Logan Circle Hardware begat Glover Park Hardware, which begat soon-to-open Tenleytown Hardware, reported Globest.com. The 12,000 SF store will open in the Cityline condo building, where Hechinger's home improvement used to live.



One has to hand it to Gina and Marc, the proprietors of these three operations. They took on the the big chains, which no one said could be done. They opened urban retail hardware stores, which many said was impossible. We hope they have not expanded too fast.

These stores specialize in service, service, service. Hello Home Depot, anybody listening to that message? We doubt it.
