Six Business Buildings Unoccupied in Village
In Middleport at least six business structures sit vacant after Christmas. The Bob Coats building spurred vacancies as Dutton Drug Store and Ohio Fuel Gas Co. moved in, while Factory Outlet closed a large salesroom. Mill Street sees two boarded up structures, including the Stansbury building after a fire, and a storage room formerly used by Howard the Trader. Other vacant spaces include the former Baker Furniture site on North Second, the Michael building once handling phone bills, Becky Baby Shop’s former site now housing D. L. Beck’s new project, Pratt Beauty Parlor relocated, and Hudson Market now used as storage for H&R Firestone.
