Boyden Landmark Had Interesting History
One of Boyden's oldest landmarks, now known as the old bakery
building, is being razed. The building was built in 1887 by Mr.
Allen and used for a postoffice, and later for a hardware store. It
was then converted into a saloon. Afterward Walter Vefr Hoef
profited by using it for the "Cozy Corner" Cafe. Later on the
Stevens family fortune rose and fell within its spacious walls. It
was subject to an occasional fire, and was finally condemned after
the last fire several months ago. It was then occupied by the Boyden
Bakery. The former City Bakery property and building have been
purchased by Ed Diekevefrs. Eric Hirt began wrecking the building
Monday.
