Rennebohm's at 1357 University Avenue
Image
The Rennebohm Drug Store #1 at the corner of University Avenue and Randall Avenue, which replaced Rennebohm's first store located just across the street. Although still under construction, the building already housed Rennebohm's Badger Pharmacy which had moved from its former location across the street. A sign indicates that the building was constructed by J.H. Findorff, with J. Gaetli as engineer. Upstairs, realtor Stanley Hanks is preparing to rent space as offices and apartments. The store next to Rennebohm's would eventually become a Western Union office.
1925
