Businessman Marty Mathews fills retail gap along Madison west of Overton Square
Since purchasing the nearly-century-old building located at 1482 Madison Ave. in 2015, Marty Mathews has spent more than $1 million to bring the once-decapitated Midtown building back to life. He spent a lot more than he planned, but has said preserving the old architecture was “the right thing to do.’’ (Patrick Lantrip/Daily Memphian)
