Gianni Marchesotti posted on Facebook today that he, Heather LaHuis and Carrie-Sue Marchesotti went “road trippin'” on a Sunday afternoon and came across the old Goldsmith Shoppe that once stood next door to the Henika District Library on South Main Street in Wayland. He was kind enough to stop take a photo graph.
The Goldsmith Shoppe was home to the longtime jewelry and watch repair business of Mike and Clare Vilenski, who closed it several years ago. Once the location of Dr. Arthur Larson’s dental practice, it was sold to a woman from Grand Haven, who had it put up on blocks and taken to South Haven, where it stands as a quaint residence today.
