Where I grew up.
Most of the businesses have changed, buildings have not.

There 's one restaurant way down on the right that has been in the same location, same families owned, for over 100 years.
The oldest in New York state.
When I started working, it was right across the street. Went over for lunch every day. Was there so often, sometimes when I went to pay would be "no charge!"
Or "let the Greeks buy it!"
