Weeks Hardware is a historic two-story brick 1913 hardware store building in Brooksville, Florida, located at 115 North Main. The store was called Miro Hardware through the end of World War II, as a combination of the first names of Rosie and Mammie Weeks. As of 2003, the store was the "oldest active business in town," according to the St. Petersburg Times, which added: The reluctance to modernize is evident everywhere. The ceiling is high, made of elaborately patterned tin and in need of paint. The freight elevator in the back of the store is powered by hand.

  • Weeks Hardware is a historic two-story brick 1913 hardware store building in Brooksville, Florida, located at 115 North Main. The store was called Miro Hardware through the end of World War II, as a combination of the first names of Rosie and Mammie Weeks. As of 2003, the store was the "oldest active business in town," according to the St. Petersburg Times, which added: The reluctance to modernize is evident everywhere. The ceiling is high, made of elaborately patterned tin and in need of paint. The freight elevator in the back of the store is powered by hand. A tall, darkly stained plywood case that holds bolts and screws in its dozens of drawers, was built, according to a little brass label on one corner, by A.R. Brown on May 7, 1901. The founder's grandson, Joseph C. Weeks, worked in the store since childhood, and took over the business after returning from naval service and graduating from the University of Florida. Mr. Weeks, aged 82, was honored by the Brooksville City Council as "the 2009 Great Brooksvillian." The building was owned by John Weeks, the first President of the First Federal Bank. The historic J.M. Rogers Department Store built in 1912 is located across the street at 120 North Main. (en)
