Development of a Modern Store
A retrospective on Lawrence’s Ober store from 1894 to 1916 traces the rise from a narrow, dim room to a modern, well lighted men’s clothing and furnishings house. It notes key changes including removal of fixtures, new fronts, expanded display space, arcade windows, rear additions, and improved cabinets to boost service, efficiency, and merchandise.
