The RoomPlace Sticky Post-it Note Pad brings a Chicago-area retail name to everyday lists, reminders, and desk notes. The company’s story spans a West Town furniture store founded in 1912, a Harlem Avenue location opened in 1950, regional expansion, and its later name change from Harlem Furniture. Its short return to the original name in 2024 adds a final twist for collectors of store ephemera. A useful desk keepsake for former shoppers and Midwest retail history enthusiasts.
The RoomPlace began in 1912, when Sam Berman opened a small furniture store in Chicago’s West Town neighborhood. In 1950, the business opened a store on Harlem Avenue under the name Harlem Furniture. It added a Chicago store near 79th Street and Cicero Avenue in 1985, then expanded to Hoffman Estates, Homewood and Vernon Hills by 1990. A distribution center opened in Hillside by 1988. In the early 2000s, Harlem Furniture adopted the name The RoomPlace; later growth included an Orland Park store and an expansion of its distribution center from 200,000 to more than 300,000 square feet. In 2011, former CEO Bruce Berman acquired the retailer for $15.1 million. A 2016 fire destroyed its Woodridge distribution center, and the company announced an Indianapolis-area expansion that year. The RoomPlace filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in February 2024. After attempts to sell its assets and an announcement that remaining stores would close, it briefly resumed operations under its original Harlem Furniture name, opening four stores. That venture lasted only a few months.
