I was born too late...Again...:baby:...Ben
Didn’t even have deposit bottles back then.. people returned their bottles because they said that they would..
BTW.. back then, what is now Construction Ave was a swampy creek.. across Constitution Ave, below 15th street was the “ruff” section of town and wholesale food markets.. all torn down during depression and Federal Triangle was built, there today,, one section of federal triangle was delayed because Old Post Office had to be torn down.. never torn down, is Trump Hotel today
