I remember all the places you mention except The Corned Beef Center. How could I possibly not remember a place called that?
I happened upon your site because I was remembering my days at Nettlehorst and the gyp joint. You mentioned them in an article 3 years ago about Mr. Richman. I cannot describe the place other than to say the candy was stacked to the ceiling and aisles barely wide enough for a skinny 9 year old. I miss it, along with the Corned Beef Center, Clayton's Shoes, Simon's Drug Store and Dews Hardware. A small town in the big city. Richard levy
