Built in the early 1900s, the building opened in 1906 and was originally home to the Kalamazoo Loose Leaf Binder Co., and the Saniwax Paper Co., with "Saniwax Building" still visible on the exterior brick structure. In 1982 the property was purchased, repurposed, and renamed as the Park Trades Center. References
