All I remember is it was on a downtown street, its doors faced South, and the back area was empty & lit, a place which looked like beatniks read their beat poetry in the '50s. It might had been a book store.Markhttp://www.www.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043052320137043563.post-38421857848156458112009-10-27T20:35:28.800-07:002009-10-27T20:35:28.800-07:00A '50s coffee place?

Otherwise, I'm not sure.<br /><br />The big news in "Uptown" Normal is that the Radisson Hotel across the street from Watterson Towers will finally open in November. It's ten stories high and took more than three years to build (there were issues with funding).Stuart A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/16841927313842218715noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6043052320137043563.post-8475588608254333582009-10-22T09:41:16.957-07:002009-10-22T09:41:16.957-07:00Those parents should be fined, and be convicted as...Those parents should be fined, and be convicted as felons so they never have the right to vote again. If you throw their asses in jail, who's going to watch the kids? I think the whole family should be blown up, so they're made into an example for society: you dupe us, we blow you up. Simple as that. It's pretty obvious the whole family is mentally unstable. Real good job by the parents by letting their little dipshit kids in on the plot... it's not like they're going to blow their cover or anything.

I...Let me guess... the 1950s coffee diner is gone. I always liked hanging out there. I remember a pizza place that had pictures of celebrities all over the wall. Can't remember the name but I bet that's gone too.<br /><br />Question: do you remember when they expanded Ogden Avenue? I want to say 1991-92, but it may had been more late 80s. Ask your parents, they should know. Man, I hate it when towns change radically. I'm still trying to piece what things were like here 20 to 30 years ago. Cee Bee's, Tasty Bakery, Eagle, Omni, Cock Robin, Pharmor, Sizzler, Builders Square. Shoulda taken pictures.Markhttp://www.www.comnoreply@blogger.com
