Description 

Erected in 1924, the Schlosburg Building originally served as the flourishing Schlosburg Department Store—a local commercial cornerstone born from the entrepreneurial vision of Russian immigrant Harry Leon Schlosburg, who had opened a Chester branch in 1916 before elevating it to full department-store status by 1924. Though the store closed circa 1930, the building continued as a vibrant commercial hub, housing retail and professional tenants for decades. Today, it stands as a contributing landmark within the
Chester Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

In 2024, Kuester Commercial began to sympathetically renovate the structure into a dynamic restaurant and retail destination, marrying its rich historic legacy with modern
urban vitality. The redevelopment preserves the architectural integrity of the historic façade and structural elements while reimagining interior spaces to serve both diners and
shoppers—reactivating a treasured Gadsden Street property and fueling downtown Chester’s resurgence.
