The building that we didn't mention the name of that was the building that housed the Utica Floral and Chatterbox. It is the Mayro Building. Most who were born or brought up in Utica would have recognized precisely where we were talking about if we had only remembered the name of that building.
I bet most of us have been in one part of the Mayro Building at one time or another. I had a dentist that was located on the second floor when I was a teenager, also had a lawyer that was located there that handled a divorce for me. The Utica School of Commerce was on the second floor up Bank Place for many years, and many coffee shops have occupied parts of the Bank Place side over the years.

The matchbook cover from the Piccadilly brings back memories. I ate lunch there a few times in the 60's and early 70's, but as time went on, the place changed, and Josie's Piccadilly became a bar the one would not enter unless they were wearing a bullet proof vest and a riot helmet. It got just a tad rowdy. When I rode ambulances as an EMT in the early 80's we picked up many victims of the bar room violence from that place. LOL

I think they were separate places, with the Ten Pin on the north side of Eagle. My grandmother used to take me in the T.P. for a fish fry. |

Does anyone remember the Hunt's Point Diner on Charlotte St? We used to stop there and get warm, over a cup of coffee on our way back to N. Utica from UFA in the early 60's. It was run by a guy who was always there all by himself, doing the serving and the cooking. Typical old fashioned diner with the huge gas burning coffee urns and the cook with a greasy apron and paper hat. We loved the place and would often stop there after school for coffee and pie from the Red Cherry Pie Shop, and then catch the city bus to N Utica from the busy corner. No, but I remember a bar in that block. Was it Luley's? Lubey's? |

Between Elizabeth and Bleecker on the West side of Charlotte was Luberts. Could that be the name you're thing of? |

The Tiki-Toi was just North of Stanley Jones Insurance and possibly just South or in the same place as where Hunt's was.  |

Re the Ten Pin and Picadilly, I don't think I ever went in the Picadilly. Man, it's been a long time since those days, nearly half a century. |
