Fitzgerald's Furniture Moves to Clinton Street Location
Fitzgerald's Furniture relocates to the two story building at 101 EB Clinton Street. Wartime priorities and staff shortages prompted the move from its 16 year site at 355 BE Cass Street. The Elgin Joliet and Eastern Railway Company's former building will house the same merchandise with improvements planned after the war. A new modern building will be constructed on the site in the future.
