Hi, I would like to know if you have any pictures or information about The Black and White Snack Bar on the corner of D'leglies and Ross Street in Verdun in the 1960s
My father * Larry Paxton *ran a depeneur. Which is now D'leglies metro station ,I've been searching for a while and never had any luck. It would be amazing to have any information. Thank you
I will do what I can if I come across some photos from Church Av deps I will post them for you.
D'leglies and Ross.
I don't remember anything other than the old Greenberg's Clothing store at the corner of Wellington & Galt Av being replaced for the Church Metro station? The store relocated diagonally across the block to Gordon and Wellington for a while before disappearing.
Cheers ! Les
Thanks for the request and for surfing by.
I was in foster care as well, Elsie Meikle looked after me, she was an elderly lady back then.
