Chase-Pitkin

What Chase-Pitkin would look like now (Meta AI)

    
Chase-Pitkin were a home improvement chain that traces their roots back to 1857 and were sold to Wegmans in 1973, who expanded it to 14 locations. Stiff competition from Lowes and Home Depot closed the chain in 2006, which also befell Hechinger, Grossmans, Builders Square, and many mom and pop hardware stores (mainly True Value franchises). I mainly have CNY updates (shock, horror!).
