Longtime shoe sale, repair shop to get new owner
Feb. 26, 2018
Park Ridge Shoes & Shoe Repair will soon have a new owner.
Longtime employee Ever Urbina is buying the Park Ridge Galleria business, which was founded in 1955. He has worked in shoe repair and shoe sales there for the past decade.
“It’s something I really enjoy,” Urbina said.
He plans to keep his four-person team and potentially add staff if he is able to grow the business.
He takes over March 1.
The business is in lower level of Park Ridge Galleria at 26th Street and Western Avenue. There’s an inventory reduction sale going on until the end of the month in a space on the main level that used to be The Book Shop.
Signs were posted that the store was going out of business before the sale agreement was completed.
