A LITTLE HISTORY
The warehouse at 160 Bluenose Drive was originally built by Lewis Anderson and Co. in the 1880's. The side addition was made by Zwicker and Company in the 1940's.
Letson's 1896 biographical profile in "Historic Lunenburg" reads as follows:
In 1873, Lewis Anderson left the firm of James Eisenhauer and Co. and started his own business. Lewis Anderson for many years occupied a prominent place among the businessmen of Lunenburg and it was mainly through his enterprise that Lunenburg entered upon the career of business prosperity which she today enjoys. It was through his energy that the West India trade which had almost entirely ceased was revived. Withdrawing from the firm of J. E. Eisenhower and Co. he took as a partner, James R. Rudolf esq., who still continues this business under the name of Lewis Anderson & Co. Mr. Anderson died in 1888 respected and esteemed for his sterling qualities of mind and heart. About 1910, the Anderson premises were acquired by Zwicker and Company and were in turn sold off by the company in 1977.
