Story 1: |
Thought to have been an empty lot until Robert
"Bob" Corey purchased it from
Louis Bosch in 1947 and built an ice cream parlor in the early 1950s which he and his
wife, Faye, ran for a brief time, selling to Maro Day in 1953.
According to Susan Heil Frank (and others) this was not just an ice cream parlor but a
restaurant called the Parker House and was very popular with the young
people. Faye Corey was the cook. |
|
In 1958 Joseph Nordloh, builder, purchased the building and had his
offices on one side and rented the other to his nephew, Jim, architect. It was
sometimes referred to as the "Nordloh Building". Among other renters were
Trackside Treasures and Styling in the Park, a hairdresser. |
|
In 1966 Charles Wiebold purchased it and moved his Art Restoration
business there from the basement of his residence at 213 Cambridge. The building has been remodeled
and expanded on 3 occasions (1970, 1986 and 1991). He added a storage shed in 1972. Wiebold's
celebrated its 60th anniversary in 2005 and its 70th in 2015 (started in
1945). It is thought to be the oldest business in continuous
operation in Terrace Park. |
|
Wiebold purchased from the Village the back (east) sections of lots 113
and 114 in 1976. Bill Wiebold, Charlie's son, now owns the business.

actually at 411? |
