Daily Citizen caption:

THE "HUPMOBILE" GARAGE at 9th and Glenwood Ave., Ambridge. It is now L & S Auto Shop. Note the "Hupmobile" ready for action. 

The Daily Citizen didn't provide the date the Hupmobile Garage photo was taken, but Ambridge Central Garage was listed as a Hupmobile dealer in the April 7, 1929, Pittsburgh Press.

The Central Garage building is still standing. Until recently, it was the location of Kal's Body Shop. It looks like the building is currently unoccupied and for sale.

Everything I know about T. C. Pearce, Funeral Director, is in this 1929 ad. If you know anything about Pearce or his business, please leave a comment.

1200 Merchant St. is still standing. According to Beaver County property records, the building was built in 1914. For many years it was the location of an insurance agency. I don't know who occupies the building now.
