Looks like my memory is off a little. The liquor store must have been on the corner of Douglas and Humbolt with the entrance on Humbolt. The address was 634 Humbolt.

I don't remember which was the first liquor I went into either.

That looks like a '55 Chevy or Pontiac.

Buy liquor, go around the corner and get pie eyed.

Pontiac
I had a '55 Chevy 4 door with the six cyclinder, but I always dreamed of the '55 Chevy 2 door hardtop with a 265 V8.

I guess as long as we have moderators hijacking this thread all is good.
But I really do love sidewalks too.

New post up on all the change going on in Harris Green. http://sidewalkingvi...ly-coolest.html
I think that in two years the way we all see our city is going to be changed by this mini-boom in this area. What are your thoughts?

Also for all you planning nerds, I got a copy of the 1997 Harris Green Charrette. It is an amazing (if misguided in my opinion) document that until now is not currently available online. I highly suggest checking out my post just to read it.

Harris Green should have a broken compass as its logo.
But then again, maybe it will end up being a more authentic and interesting place because of it. I'm glad that it didn't get built out during the 1990s with a few more copies of Regent Park & the Manhattan & that mini-tower on Pandora (I never remember the name of that place).
