History of Oleson’s Livery, est. 1893

The Livery building is a historical icon in Eau Claire, as it once served as Oleson's Livery (owned by George and Peter Oleson) from the 1880s to the 1920s. It remains one of the few liveries still intact and in use.

Now, back in the day, liveries were an integral part of city life – offering horse transportation to those who could not afford to own a horse of their own. Liveries are also the reason why business/commerce gathered close together, forming downtowns. It was a shorter distance for the horses to travel.

As the economy transformed and automobiles started making long-distance travel easier, the livery building was modified into an automobile garage and has since housed numerous auto-related businesses.

Transforming Downtown…Again.

Today, it is of great significance that the original Oleson's Livery building remains a solid structure, and is once again part of transforming the culture of Eau Claire's downtown area. The North Barstow area continues to grow and offer more amenities, services, and entertainment to nearby residents and workers, including the newly constructed mixed-use buildings for apartments and retail.

We don't mean to brag, but…
