 Well, after almost six years of sitting vacant, Bemidji's former Pomita store will see a new tenant. Business and building owner Rob St. Michael says it's an ideal location and he will be moving his furniture store from Union Square in downtown Bemidji across the parking lot to the old Pomita location. St. Michael bought the building last October and will be using 60% of the building, leaving the remaining part of the building available to rent. Demolition on the interior began yesterday and full renovations will begin in mid-April. St. Michael furniture plans to hold a grand opening at its new location sometime in early August.
