This will be the third Papa Murphy's in the Kalamazoo area. The other two locations are 3942 South Westnedge Avenue and 7926 Oakland Drive. Kalamazoo's first Noodles & Co. is located at 6150 South Westnedge Avenue in Portage, on the Southland Mall pad also owned by the Meyer C. Weiner Company.
This demolition leaves at least two former Bill Knapp's buildings standing in the Kalamazoo area. One is now Brewster's at 5315 Portage Road. The other is Remax of Kalamazoo real estate at 1517 South Park Street at Crosstown Parkway. When this location was Bill Knapp's, the address was 234 Balch Street.
When the Bill Knapp's chain went entirely out of business, only the West Main and Portage Street locations had been in recent operation. Brewster's has been the only subsequent tenant on Portage Road. Schafer's Flowers was the only tenant on West Main between closing and demolition. Schafer's recently moved to a new shopping development at 3274 Stadium Drive.
