The Castle Club was purchased by Lindy Sandlin in the early '50s and moved to Heminger City. It was renovated and they made six apartments in the building.

A lot of the rentals at that time were for the soldiers who were stationed at Camp Hanford. The building is still standing in West Richland. At one time there was a Southern Fried Chicken Restaurant on the road in front of the apartment building. There are storage units where the restaurant used to be.
