Interesting. It was actually more profitable as a REIT than a store. I worked a Milford, Ct one a while, shopped at Fordham Rd one while at Fordham U. Liked store.
There was a little pharmacy that my parents used to take me to that was in Wavecrest Shopping Center in Far Rockaway back in the 1980s, I think the owners were Jewish. Thats one place I miss. That pharmacy also sold all little types of toys and other cool stuff for kids. We used to go there and buy a dollar pack of balloons to make pea shooters with.
Ah, yes. The old neighborhood pharmacies thst had a spinning rack of paperback novels. Good memories.
Lamston’s. As a kid did all my Christmas shopping there. Rappaport’s. Old school toy store with narrow aisles, stacked high. Rexall drug stores; Schrafft’s.
Mt. Carmel Candy Store on 187th Street (Belmont). It had a great looking fountain soda setup, and the best malted/egg cream sodas I've ever tasted.
I'd add original Full Moon Restaurant with nice, quiet dining room. Family would eat there around 8-9 each night, many generations, when I attended Fordham.
