      <marmot:placeNotes>A florist business established by Stephen Barnwell Johnson Sr. and his son Steve Jr. in 1937. Johnson purchased greenhouses from the Arcieri family located at Struthers Avenue and 7th Street and opened a shop at 455 Main Street, where he stayed for two years. He then moved the greenhouses to 1350 North Avenue, where he also opened a storefront after purchasing the land from a man named Growner. An architect who worked for the Independent Lumber Company drew plans for the flower shop. The business remained open at least until the 1990&#x2019;s, and was the oldest existing business on North Avenue at that time.</marmot:placeNotes>
