Mine weren't. My dad moved to the New Haven area in the mid-1940s to work for his uncle and to open his machine shop on a part-time basis. The machine shop became a boat/motor/motorcycle shop right after WWII. I looked on Google Maps recently for the neighborhood where that first store was located, and either I was looking at the wrong block or the building the store was in is still there, but is now an autobody shop. My dad moved his store from there about 10 years later. I'll have to check out the old store site during my upcoming visit to New Haven. -- Republicans . . . the anti-immigrant, anti-contraception, anti-student, anti-middle class, pro-impeachment party that shut down the government last year for no reason. |
