SOUTHGATE, Mich. – After 72 years, McLinden's Shoes in Southgate is closing for good.
The family-owned shoe store on Fort Street got its start in 1947. It's thriving, but the owners said it's just time to close.
"I want to do some traveling. I want to spend more time with my grandson," Margret McLinden said.
A going out of business celebration and sale will be held Thursday. There will be deals, games and prizes. Everything, including the building, is for sale.
