Butler Bank, founded in 1901 by General Gardner Pearson (1882 - 1953), bought the 1/2 acre piece of property at 16 Main Street, Andover in March of 2006.  The space had been occupied by Friendly's Restaurant from June 1, 1965 until December 24. The property was sold to Butler Bank for $1.45 million. 
The Chic Consignment Closet is located at 46 Main Street and is owned and operated by Lise Nardone.  The boutique opened on June 11, 2009 and replaced Stitch Boutique, which closed in May of 2009.


Friendly's was torn down on September 6, 2006.  Construction for Butler Bank began in October, 2006.  This, Butler Bank's fourth branch, opened on May 24, 2007. CPA John J. Drago and Doherty Law Offices were tenants of the bank at the opening. Boston King Cafe opened in the Butler Bank building on April 26, 2008.   
In April of 2009, Nardone began to sell consignment items in her boutique for young women called Gigi's of Andover on Essex Street. The idea proved to be successful and Nardone decided to open a separate high-end consignment clothing and accessories shop.
