I grew up on Montclair Avenue between Clifton
Avenue and Ridge Street. Went to Ridge Street School, Broadway Junior
High & Barringer High School. I remember The Kent Theater on
Mount Prospect Avenue, Frank & Pete's Fish store, Carrino's
Deli on Mount Prospect Avenue, Liss, The Old Ladies, Zippos Chicken
Market, Pepes, Webers Hardware, Rainbow Liquors HU3-6123, Mintz's
Department Store, The Elwood Theater, Hatches Garage, coal deliveries,
the knife sharpeners coming around with the grinding wheels, produce
trucks, Branch Brook park...what great memories of a wonderful city.
