 Fiona, yes, I think that's the store I remember as Wicks and Greenman up from the Busy Corner, I think on the corner of Deveraux and Genesee. I remember buying two beautiful sweaters in there in the early sixties. Very nice clothing store. Here's an ad from '41.  |

Yes. Of course, it's gone now, torn down during so called "Urban renewal" to be replaced by the perenially ugly and socially useless State office Building. What a pure and abyssmal waste. Some days I could cry.

Too bad. There were numerous beautiful buildings that with some care would have lasted forever. But they were not efficient in a modern sense of that word. Still, as long as the elevators worked, I'd rather work in an old building than the new modern monstrosities.
