Tenkhoff Pharmacy opened at 801 Broadway in 1943. The building had been occupied by the county Office of Civilian Defense.
Tenkhoff moved from 630 Good Hope. The Unnerstall Drug Store, 628 Good Hope, expanded to the former Tenkhoff location.
On Jan. 1, 1964, Tenkhoff Pharmacy became Bill's Pharmacy, owned by Bill Smirl, who later moved the business to 735 Broadway.
Shakey's Pizza Parlor and Ye Public House opened at 801 Broadway on July 1, 1968. The building was heavily damaged by fire in 1981 and never repaired. It was demolished in 1994 and the site became a parking lot for Kerasotes Theaters, which owned the adjacent Broadway Theater.
