I've noticed that many of the members here have quite a lot of pictures. In that vein, I've started this thread off. To start I'm posting 3 pictures. In picture #1, name the location. #2, name the site. #3, name the object.
THANKS for stopping by, I do my best to acknowledge when someone leaves a comment,you do not have to be a member here & everyone is welcome. Ps: This site is monitored but not actively posting on a regular basis. Mostly these are stories & some photos saved from a defunct site known as Verdun Connections which was on MSN Groups initially then on a social network called Multiply.
Athis time the pictures are delayed as they won't upload. I'll try later.

ReplyDeleteWhat bar was in this strip mall? Hint, it's in Lasalle. #6
ReplyDeleteHere this shot might be more helpful.............. ..................................how's that better...............hahahahah HF&RV
ReplyDeleteI agree,,,LMAO
ReplyDeleteI guess that little sign over to the right of the entrance that says Wax Museum entrance ,...sort of gices it away a bit. hahahahahaha I Remember this place had a Catacomb type tunnel entrance ,...kind of a good idea since it was close to the old StJoseph's Oratory,..... it was a neat old place,.................... HF&RV
ReplyDeleteGood call...but what is in the building now? It has a very different use now.
ReplyDeleteI don't know if this is correct or not,.but I'm lead to believe it's now a 24hr Pharmaprix ??? hf&rv
ReplyDeleteThat's right. Big change from being the wax museum!
ReplyDeleteYes I would imagine they've narrowed down the amount of dummies considerably.............hahahahahah hf&rv
ReplyDelete.too bad in a way,.Cause with that elaborate Entrance or at least unique style entrance ,it would make a good dinner theater or even a new restaurant ,........ala the old Kon-Tiki Remember the sort of arches they had,. ...Could be Kon-Tiki revisited,............. hf&rv
ReplyDeleteNow for the other picture. Which metro station is it?
ReplyDeletepicture number 5 looks like verdun metro..........................carol richer
ReplyDeleteGood guess Carol...You're right!
ReplyDeleteCan anyone name the bar in #6?
ReplyDeleteWell ;if the shot was from the inside looking out,and not much had changed over a 35 to 40 year span,.I think I'd have a better shot at guessing,..but seeing there was not one bar or private clun that I hadn't been in in Lasalle .////////I would have to say that even though the photo is rather dark-ish,...I would guess that ,the upholstered sewer in question,would have to be the Haraki........based on the shot being taken from across the street,and a boulevard of sorts appears to be separating one side of the street from the other,..and seeing the only street's otherthan Newman Blvd ,having an actual island blvd separating them ,was Shevshenko ,.( and of course Bishop Power ,on the lower side of the Acquduct) & Airlie ( was it? or 90th)......I can't Remember rightly ,all these years later,........but I will guess Haraki ,.seeing it would have been at that end of a very small mini-mall type of spot,.......Bert's would have had a separation Btwn. the little mini-mall ( where Mama's Restaurant was ,Miss Dollard for those who prefer the real name) & it's building which I believe stood completely separate of any adjoining structures........but I digress,..........What is it? hahahahahahaha HF&RV
ReplyDeleteIt's the Hariki Bar. Anyone else have a picture or two to post?
ReplyDeleteYup!
ReplyDeleteHere's an oldie. Steve
