I have to admit I'm drawing a blank on this building. It's on Covenant Road just below the final Forest Lake TV<\/a> location, and just above the former Danielle Le Shay Gallerie<\/a>. In fact, google searches on \"3618 Covenant Road\" turn up the Danielle Le Shay<\/i> name, but that was 3620.<\/p>\n

Anyway I'm sure I've driven past it hundreds of times since 1969<\/a> and must have seen it in operation as a number of different businesses over the years, but none of them is coming to me now. I will say that it has a cleaner-ish<\/i> look to it.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 15 Jan 2011<\/b> -- OK, I spent some time with the city directories, though I only got up to 1995 before the library closed, but here's what I have for this building:<\/p>\n

1970 -1972 -- Powers 60 Minute Cleaners
\n1973 -- Boland's One Hour Martinizing
\n1974 -1977 -- Vacant
\n1978 -- The clock Doctor
\n1979 -- Vacant
\n1980 - 1981 -- Brinson's Quality Cleaners
\n1982 - 1984 -- Vacant
\n1985 -- Haywood Electrical Corp
\n1986 -1987 -- B C Bike Inc
\n1988 - 1990 -- Vacant
\n1991 -- Jomacies Cafeteria (hard to read my handwriting, but I think that's it)
\n1992 - 1995 Vacant (I did not have time to check past 1995)<\/p>\n

I believe The Clock Doctor<\/i> is still around in that little strip of trailers across from the Two Notch K Mart<\/i>.<\/p>\n

UPDATE 3 February 2021<\/b>: This building and the one next door<\/a> were razed in December 2020:<\/p>\n

Also updating tags and adding map icon.<\/p>\n
