FURNITURE HUB
OF COUNTRY IN
5-BLOCK AREA
Sixteen Stores Do Business
on Vast Scale Along
East Washington Street.

No certain limited section of any
city in the nation has the number
of furniture stores in one area that
is contained in the five blocks east
of Pennsylvania street on -.Shing-
ton street, according to data COM
piled by the East Washington Street
Merchants Association, whose annu-
al harvest festival week will begin
Saturday.
In the five blocks there are six
teen furniture stores, all engaged in
the handling of thousands of dollars
of merchandise each year.
That section If the city long has
been noted for its Importance as a
furniture mart.
In the volume of "Recources and
Industries of Indiana" published
here in 1888, considerably more than
a page is devoted to the now de-
funct Spiegel, Thomas & Co., manu-
facturerS of furniture and chairs,
at II and 83 East Washington street.
That company was established in
1855 and at the time of the COM
pilation had a factory consisting of
two large brick buildings, five stories
high, containing 22,500 square feet
of floor space.
"An average of 100 was employed
and the pay roll amounted to $4,000
a month";" the chronicle sets forth.
Annually the company consumes
material costing $4,000 and is the
largest furniture factory in point of
capacity in the state.
The factory is gone, but the path
it indicated is shown through the
fact that the sixteen furniture store
do an annual total business of more
than one million dollars.
