Photos - Grandmont-Rosedale Area Bars
My Dad grew up in Grandmont - Rosedale area and went to St. Mary's of Redford. Him and I have driven through numerous times and he's recounted a lot of fun stories - he mentions the Montrose Bar and Dooley's quite a bit. Obviously they aren't still around. Was wondering if anyone had photos of either of them, or bars from that area from the 60s and 70s. Or names of any other places in the area you knew or may have frequented.
Thanks!
Grandmont - St. Mary's Bars
I do not have pictures. It was Dooley's Bar [[Woodmont and Grand River). Grandway a little further east. Depending on how old your Dad is he might remember it had a six lane bowling alley. It was owned by Cronyn and Behen. Dooley's was owned by Bob Barry. Montrose Bar was of course on the corner of Montrose and Grand River. It was torn down I think a couple of years ago. Duffy's was on Grand River as well towards Greenfield, it closed in the late 70's. West towards Southfield [[Southside between Rutland and Longacre) the Grandmont Bowling Alley had a bar and at the corner of Grand River and Fenkell was Jordans on the River and the Cartwheel was across the street.
