Long-time alternative businessman Nick Hess has moved his little shop from a tiny corner shop in Oil City to quaint little historic building next to the library. It has housed several little businesses over the years including Commissioner Chip's business at one time.
Hess is transforming this unique little building into his own thing. He said he was told over and over again to not lose the charm of his Oil City business.
"Hello, have we met?" could easily be his response.
Hess has a style that follows him as he walks down the road and it will be in his new shop that already looks like his old shop, but maybe on steroids. He will open Saturday and though it will always be a work in progress for Hess, it will have much of the same fare his old location had plus.
He was excited that he was able to display new items he just didn't have room for in his old place, plus he has a bathroom/changing room, something he couldn't offer in the past.
