Thompson Funeral Home, 200 State Street: 2021 (Moved) 1 comment
Posted at 11:08 pm in closing
According to the Thompson web site, this building was built by the company's founder in 1935 and was
the first building in this area that was built strictly for the use as a funeral home
According to this WestMetroNews article, Thompson's moved their area facility to larger quarters at 4720 Augusta Road in Lexingtion in early 2021.
It's a very nice looking, rather churchlike building and I certainly hope they find a buyer who wants to keep it standing. Currently the lot is apparently being used for paid parking.

I do not have first-hand knowledge but, I've been told the property owners are looking to have someone come in and make it a funeral home again. I've also heard they will not sell the property and only want it to be a funeral home.
I'd wager that property is quite valuable, given the boom in the area. But, that's a very specific field of endeavor and one that requires certified training. Unless the owners have a change of heart, this is likely to sit empty for a good while. That's not a good thing.
