Let’s go inside the downtown Huntsville hardware store that still looks like 1901
Join Teena and me in downtown Huntsville, Alabama, where we’ll be going inside an 1897 hardware store that still looks much like it did 120+ years ago.
Video: Walk with fine art photographer Keith Dotson through the oldest hardware store in Alabama
I was in the city doing some photography but there’s no photography in this video — just a quick walk around the inside pf the store, with it’s creaky old wood floors.
The historical marker says Harrison Brothers is the oldest operating hardware store in Alabama, founded in 1879, and in this building since 1897.
They remodeled after a fire in 1901, and that’s the last time any real alterations were made.
Look at those floors! Awesome!
