GROWING WITH THE CITY: In 1923, Bon Marché relocated to the corner of Haywood Street and Battery Park Avenue. On Nov. 11 of that year, The Sunday Citizen noted: “Bon Marche grew up with Asheville and in the acquisition of this new home it is felt that the store is merely keeping pace with the progress that is certain to be made by the city that supports it.” Photo courtesy of North Carolina Collection, Pack Memorial Public Library, Asheville
