Photo by Tyler A. McNeil, via Wikimedia Commons, licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0. There was a time when a home improvement project in Upstate New York began with a trip to a familiar hardware store, lumberyard, or neighborhood home center. Maybe it was a leaky pipe in a Rochester two-family house, a porch that needed new boards in the Southern Tier, or another winter spent trying to keep the snowblower working in Western New York. Before the largest warehouse chains dominated so many commercial strips, local owners, family businesses, cooperatives, and regional chains supplied the parts and advice that kept homes running.
