Ganahl Lumber paid close to $10 million for a closed Chevrolet dealership in Pasadena, Ca., and hopes to open its 10th lumberyard there next spring. 

The new store will mark the company's return to Pasadena after 100 years. Now based in Anaheim, Ca., the company opened in Los Angeles in 1884 and ran a yard in what is now downtown Pasadena from about 1900 to 1910.
