Noblesville Antique Mall

The Noblesville Antique Mall has been owned and operated for the last three years by Craig and Tonya Ogden. The upbeat couple bring such a warm and friendly atmosphere to their mall. You can feel it, as soon as you walk in. A visitor is greeted with a cheerful welcome and is delighted with three levels of treasures to hunt through. There is just something for everyone's taste in collecting.

When the couple had the opportunity to purchase this well established antique mall three years ago, they realized the significance of its location. Noblesville is the county seat of Hamilton County and is rich with history and historical buildings. The building that you see at the right is the old courthouse located on what is called Courthouse Square and it is right across the street from Craig and Tonya's 130 year old building.

The Odgens are not new to collecting or the business of antiques. Craig shared with me that he has been a major collector of advertising for many years. His love of the old advertising comes natural as he spent 20 years in the Ad Agency business. Craig was also a dealer in antiques for about 8 years before the opportunity to buy the Noblesville Antique Mall presented itself. He explained to me in a recent interview that he had been looking for a change when the previous owners of the mall talked to him about the purchase of the business. He and his lovely wife Tonya embraced the idea and have made some wonderful improvements since they took over.

Craig, said in the interview, that he and Tonya bought the Noblesville Antique Mall to have fun and as a major collector himself, he wanted to cater to the passionate collectors of antiques. When you come to visit, you will see that they have accomplished that very thing!

The building which houses the Noblesville Antique Mall is known as the Wild Building. Built in 1880 by Leonard Wild the building originally housed Wild's Dry Goods Store for the first 15 years of its history. The building was designed by Huebner and Mueller of Indianapolis, Indiana.

Leonard Wild was known as the "merchant prince" and was one of the largest builders in his home city.
