Nope, Harmon's on Forest Ave. Been there too many times in the last few years as the last generation of family passes on.

Didn't hang at any of those places.

Did used to go to the stock car races at Weissglas in Port Richmond quite often. Entered a demolition derby there once, what a hoot!

Oh, yeah, I remember the stink. There was a riding stable out near the Goethal's bridge we went to not long before I left the Island for good. I remember watching the expressway construction from there.

There was an employee at Harmon's who still lives right near PS 45 who remembers everything and everybody from that area and time. His name is escaping me right now, but he was a Catholic school veteran and I'm sure you would have known him. He had a couple of older brothers if I remember correctly. We all used to hang out at the Carvel at Bard & Forest before we discovered bars.
