How One Store Can Bring Back Your Childhood — 4 Comments

  1. I remember the rocking horse out front…and, of course, the soda fountain…just imagine if we had a five – or dime – for every time we passed that store! Thanks for the stroll….

  2. I remember, the supermarket, on 12th st.? When you would take one box off the line of boxes, another would immediately follow. Also, I can remember there was a Ree’s mart across the street. My mother used to buy fabrics there. One day I was left just outside, in my stroller and was scared almost to death when somebody stuck a mop, out of the window!

  3. Unlike you, I grew up in Knickerbocker Village not Stuyvesant Town.
    We didn’t have such fancy stores there on the Lower East Side.
    What I do remember though, is the bakery! My girlfriend’s grandmother used to send us there every day for a loaf of Italian bread. She never did see the ends lol. My girlfriend and I would break off one each and eat it on the way home.
    Thanks for the memory 😊
