Tweedy and Popp Ace Hardware in Richmond Beach is proceeding with plans to close its store on May 13, 2012.

Owners have just announced they will open a new store in downtown Edmonds in old Milltown.

The new store will not be an Ace store but an independent store - Edmonds Hardware and Paint.

"The merchandise will be tailored to the needs and requests of the neighborhood rather than by national sales advertising campaigns."

An unrelated Ace Hardware left Old Milltown when the weight of the paint began to stress the floor. The new Edmonds Hardware and Paint will be in a different part of Old Milltown.

The new store will open at 201 5th Ave S on August 1, 2012.
