Hi,
I'm a new poster here.
I want know if anybody here grew up in Northeast Detroit in the 1970's.
I grew up on Rochelle St. a couple doors from Queen.
I remember we had a Chatham market, on Hayes and Mayfield,an A&P on Houston, Jones Brothers ACE Hardware, Papes [[Pares?) House of Gifts across from there, and my favorites, the Kressgees dime store, and Cunninghams Drugs between Hayes and Kelly.
I had my first bank account at Standard Federal Savings at Kelly and Hayes,
Does anyone remember the little shoe repair shop across the alley from the bank?
We filled our bike tires at Degroff and sons Amoco at Hayes and Rochelle street. [[Free Air!)
We went to movies at the Civic Theatre and bowled at Denby Lanes.
We also had Lopos hobby shop, the Bonnie Lo supermarket, does any one remember the Fotomat in the bonnie Lo parking lot?
I now live in Roseville, but drive through my old neighborhood from time to time, i'm sorry to see how much it has deteriorated.
