Yep, if I remember correctly, the bicycle shop was Zeug's, and the restaurant next to Heinz field was Cole's.  There was a small grocery just across the alley from the Rock A Bye.  It was called Cutler's Market.  There were grocery stores in every neighborhood.   This was a carryover from the days of no or limited refrigeration.  Ice sometimes melted.  And Mom often sent us to the store once a day.

Up, I forgot Zeug's last name, and thank you for reminding me of the name of Cole's.  My 1st love (she didn't know it), worked there.  I went there a lot

BB, it was Benner Tea Company, and, also it was Paetz Super Value, on 2nd street, next to Mad Creek.  Benners was at 4th and Cedar/Sycamore.


It was also Giant Foods - I had relatives that worked there.

Gosh, I don't remember that.  Was it before Benner Tea Company?  I was in grade/high school, when it was Benners.
