The Arnold Building was constructed by R.A. Arnold in 1900 for his hardware store, replacing a frame building. During the 1940s, the Radio Shop, founded by Walter Medearis and Carl Marsh, moved here from down the street and changed its name to Medearis Home Furnishings. In the late 1970s, Centerville Home Furnishings bought out Medearis and remained here for several years. Dell Wayne Etheridge bought the building in 1996 and moved Dale's Superstyles here from the west side of the square. The building's façade was remodeled, apartments were configured on the second floor, the building was sold in 2012, later became New Beginnings Salon under new management, and its interior was remodeled in 2023.
