Port Jefferson village in the '60's
Lower Port Jefferson had changed so drastically over the years and has become so cold and impersonal.
I grew up in there in the 1960's and I remember when ( most ) all the shops were named after their owners , and went you went in , that was
usually the person you dealt with. It really felt like a community back then.
Do these names bring back memories ?
