Haney Frew merger dims motel plans
The Haney Furniture Co and J R Frew Co merge decorating divisions to form Haney Frew Studio of Decorating and Design. This move effectively blocks constructing a Howard Johnson motor lodge on the Frew building site at Kennedy Square unless the lease is vacated. Shenkin says Haney's has a long term lease on Frew showroom and could vacate if the Howard Johnson deal proceeds. Howard Johnson's representative says the project is at a standstill as the Frew family considers other locations and the Frew building site is no longer seen as suitable.
