At the Center of a Downtown Renaissance

Creating a Future by Building on the Past

Built in 1903, the Alpena landmark, now known as the Center Building, was originally owned by David D. Hanover and known as the Hanover block.

The Center Building has been home to many successful businesses whose owners have shared a vision of a vibrant, revitalized downtown. That revival is happening and can be seen in the visitors and residents shopping, eating, and strolling in downtown Alpena as our community re-discovers its greatest treasures.
