800-802 Congress Street- Bronco Store; Alterations and non-original materials

Silas W. Koiner was the original owner of 802 Congress Street. The Great Depression hit his family had and in 1934, Koiner built the long narrow building at 800 Congress where he provided haircuts. The business grew to become the Bronco Store selling drinks and lunches, with occasional movies after school, to the students at the Senior High School across the street. The Bronco Store added school supplies and was a staple for the students until 1951.
