I've been racking my brain trying to remember the name of the old Polish pharmacy that was on Michigan Avenue near Livernois in the 1960s. I believe it started with the letter "P." Anybody???

That's it! I'd appreciate the correct spelling, if you don't mind. Thanks!
It is not at Livernois.

I did say "near Livernois." I'm amazed that it's still there.
It's "Piaskowski". And it looks like drugs might still be sold out of there.Quote:

The place is about a mile W of Livernois. In my mind it is pretty far when you consider how dense the area is. After all there is a good 3 strip bars between there and Livernois! LOL ;)
Piaskowski Pharmacy was located on the NE corner of Florida and Michigan Ave.Quote:

Pharmacy looks like it's still in business.
