The 1650 Central Parkway location was connected by a skywalk across the Aley to the 1801 Elm Street location. When Globe closed this location in 2003, the business was in the process of closure, the second location on Montgomery Rd closed in 2005 when the lease was up.

I have the original ink block print that was used for newspapers. It shows that the building started as a furniture store. I always wanted to ink up this block print because it's very detailed. This was in the basement in what was the coal bin which the space was being cleared out and I grabbed it out of the trash, when the store was about to close. This building was a Luegers Furniture store till they moved in the 1950s to Glenway Avenue in Western Hills. Globe Furniture owned by the Meisel family purchased the building around 1955 after having to move from Pearl Street, now the ball park occupies a portion of the space, because Fort Washington Way was in the process of being constructed. Later in 1983-84 Alvin "Bunny" Meisel built the new addition to Globe Furniture facing 1650 Central Parkway. Globe Furniture Galleries was a great place to work and there was no furniture store like it because the owner loved people and his business but this all changed with the sale in 2000...the new owner was not prepared to lead this family owned company and in 5 years a healthy company was dead.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12902563890582425869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2756157783370608109.post-19277506720631796142014-07-25T12:57:27.832-04:002014-07-25T12:57:27.832-04:00A friend gave me a bookcase which comes apart.
