Well this is REALLY awesome. Thanks to K Love for writing when we posted about the Biergarten Haus find: “This is my family’s old house and shoe store (later a 5&10).
I’ve also attached a photo of the building in an earlier iteration, when my great grandpa had a shoe store there (not sure the date on the photo, but my family was in the building from 1911 on).
When I was looking thru pics to find you an older one, I realized my family has a bunch of photos of H street back in the day (undated, sorry!). Thought you might like to see some of my favorites.”
