Eddy's Bike Shop opens new temporary location after fire
PENINSULA, Ohio (WJW) – It's been 6 weeks since a piece of history at the heart of Peninsula burned to the ground.
Now, Eddy's Bike Shop has dug itself out of the ashes. On Friday April 11th, it reopens in a new, temporary location mere steps away from the original spot.

The bike shop in Peninsula has been a recognizable piece of the community for as long as anyone can remember.
Built in 1893, that little red building on the banks of the Cuyahoga River survived the great flood of 1913 only to be wiped out by fire in late February.
Eddy's Bike Shop has been operating in Northeast Ohio for 3 generations.
The family-owned company purchased Century Cycle on Main Street in Peninsula last year.
The building was undergoing some minor renovations when the building caught fire.
Flames swiftly reduced it to a pile of ash and twisted metal.

Though investigators have yet to release a cause, the business is moving forward.
Eddy's is opening for the season at a new temporary location which is just a five-minute walk down the tracks from the original building.
It is still along the route of the Cuyahoga Valley Scenic Railroad and close to the Canal Towpath.
