How about I throw my 2 cents in? I was born and raised in the old Highland Park area, Park Blvd, Crittenden Drive, James Russell Lowell School. There was St Joe's Catholic School, Patterson Bakery and Ducky's Ice Cream store. Then there was the old Highland Park Theater which turned into a roller skating rink. Ruby's Drug Store, Thrift Dept Store, Silverman's, Goldstein's, Mohawk Drugs. We had the rag man and strawberry man walking the neighborhood. We were a tight knit neighborhood and when I misbehaved, the info got back to my mother before I even walked in the door. All that is gone now......... Pam Live simply, Love generously Care Deeply Speak kindly Leave the rest to God.

Speaking of memories... Does anybody have any recollections of the "Old Louisville Hotel"? I have information that my gg grandmother was born there in 1840. Why would someone be born in a hotel if they already lived in Louisville? Did it double as a hospital? Thanks, Tim Jones Austin TX
