Thanks for the soda fountain name (Loures) and the names /locations of the candy stores (Paula’s and Moe’s). On the south side of 231st at Corlear Ave on the corner there was the public library and around the corner on Tibbets Ave. Bohacks supermarket was located. On the north side of 231st right up from Broadway was Shelvyns Bakery (sp?) and I believe the bank on the NW corner of Bway and 231st was Chemical Bank.
The articles bring back memories. I was raised on 230th st and attended St Johns Grammar School. I remember Duffys . Butcher shop, Moes candy store next to McGlynns and Ehrings Bar. Does anyone recall the name of the soda fountain place on the corner of 231st and Broadway. Thank you.
