We’ve Been Here.
We’ll Be Here.

Fort Jewelry & Loan has been around since 1944. (We used to be called Sid’s Loans.) In 1974, we moved from Detroit to Lincoln Park, and we’ve been
here ever since.

Through three generations and more than 75 years, we’ve been giving people the loans they need, selling them the goods they want, and treating everyone that walks through our doors with the respect they deserve.
