Historical Background -
The Bennett’s Cleaning building was built in 1956 and replaced a residence that had been on the site since 1910. Harley Bennett was the original owner of the building and the business. He was born in Rockville, Missouri in March 1901 and came to Greeley in 1921. He married Nona Domke in Greeley in 1925. While he lived in Greeley, he owned and operated several dry cleaning businesses, including Freeman Cleaners and Bennett Cleaners, until 1966, when he moved to California. He was a member of the First Congregational Church in Greeley.
