Department store closing after 75 years on Chicago's West Side
CHICAGO -- Brothers opened K's Department Store three quarters of a century ago – and now, one of them has to close it for good.The yellow and red storefront stretches across multiple structures at 2816 W. Cermak Rd. in the Little Village community Brothers Sol and Sammie Kaplan first opened it in 1949.'I lived on the West Side all my life,' said Sol Kaplan, now 95.Kaplan has been buying and selling as long as he has been living. He started at the old Maxwell Street Market.
'He was with me until two years ago - he died,' Sol Kaplan said of his brother. 'We were like brothers should be.'Sol Kaplan couldn't have bargained for a better brother – or extended family. Anita Navarro has been on the staff at K's ever since they opened at their current location in 1968.'I was 17 years old, and now I'm 73,' Navarro said. 'Like my second home.'Employees like Navarro stuck by the brothers right up until the end.
