What Is Going On With Ace Hardware In Amarillo, Texas?

What Happened to Ace Hardware on Western in Amarillo?

Ace Hardware was located at 4705 S. Western, and the "Ace" has been removed from the building.

According to a Yelp review, they were permanently closed in January due to rent default.  However, that is a Yelp review, and you should take that with a grain of salt.  If you have driven by the hardware location, you will notice there is a banner hanging in front of the building.

The former Ace Hardware store is now called Paramount Hardware and Supply.  Why the change? We reached out to another Paramount Hardware and Supply store and asked about the change.
