I also spent so much time there. My grandmother lived on Home Ave a few blocks down. Always picked up a cap at Frizell's for the winter, had coffee with the guys as Sander's and played pinball at Rice's Hole-In-The-Wall.JoeZhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11668412444885079124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19041693.post-42820250492901706892010-04-27T15:16:22.234-04:002010-04-27T15:16:22.234-04:00I agree with everything that Bill said except I ca...I agree with everything that Bill said except I can remember the trolleys and their tracks that gave me a headache everytime I rode them. And down the street was the R.K.O.

Tell Mack this is what the intersection looked like before Wawa was built. ;-) I think the Weinberg's building was standing into the late 70s or maybe later.<br /><br />Across Beatty St, you can see Leigh Frizzell's Men's Shop. I always stopped and shopped there to get one of those "Ties" or a pair of cufflinks for Dad on his birthday.<br /><br />Down S. Broad a ways you can see the what was the old Army-Navy store at the triangular building at Cass St. Across fro that is the tall brick police sub-station on the right.<br /><br />Across from Frizzell's is the still standing Hub City Liquors. <br />Across from Weinberg's is where Sydney Sanders remodeled the buiding and made his soda shop and luncheonette - one of the nicest in the city.<br /><br />The trolley car tracks were long gone before my era.SJBillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01396634140715010591noreply@blogger.com
