What went in after Lyons, possibly another dealership? Did the original structure remain until the CVS was built in the 90s? I can't recall.

it closed as an auto dealership after Lyon Chevrolet. It must have been torn down and rebuilt in the mid-late 80's when I was out of state. Before CVS it was a national jewelry chain of some sort. Consumers or Liquidators or something like that in the name maybe. Not sure if that was in the current building though. Not really sure how much this matters except to those guys that buy the repop Baldwin stickers and put them on too late of a car.
