Last month the Express & Star revealed that B D Price in Sedgley, which has supplied cycles and toys to generations of youngsters, was to close after 160 years being run by the same family.
Now plans have been submitted to turn the building into a children's day nursery.
Loraine McHale, who runs the Cloud 9 day nursery next door, has applied for permission to use the building for children's day care.
The proposals, if approved, would see a new shop front installed on the building in High Holborn.
They will now be considered by planning officers at Dudley Council.
Owner Dan Price, 84, said he planned to retire after running the business for the past 60 years, along with his sister Pat Smith.
The business dates back to 1865 when their great-grandfather D J Price and his wife opened a cycle shop from the front of their terraced house in High Holborn, Sedgley.
