Keenan's Laundry - 152 E College St

Starch to order. Older gentlemen prefer this laundry over the others in town. It is almost always warm and humid here due to the quantities of hot water, steam, and machines (steam presses, etc). In addition, there is an intense smell of detergent in the air which dulls the senses after a while.   Edward Throckmorton works at Keenan’s Laundry and always comes across as being older than he is. His tastes match those of the older gentlemen who frequent the laundry, and in terms of general clothing taste and manner he matches them as well. Said gentlemen prefer to deal with Edward, seeing in him a kindred spirit; others consider Edward to be prematurely old, not in appearance but in personality, which is something that Edward himself isn’t too bothered about.   Here, almost any time of day, can be found the cat Phyllis and her kittens (as of yet unnamed). Recently while roaming around, her kittens found the horribly butchered corpse of a cat behind the laundry buildings. He was lying between stacks of wooden pallets in front of the delivery door and was already quite stiff. The kittens naturally ran completely terrified to their mother (“and they’re still jittery today!”) who finally went to look herself.
