Newark - Do You Remember? Part 1

[Soulthinker2007]

My grandmother still lives in Newark and it brought memories when I read a coffee table book about Newark.

[Sakja]

I miss Newark. We used to go to Weequahic Diner after a night out. Their strawberry shortcake was so good. And Bamberger's! I spent a lot of Saturdays and lunch hours in Bamberger's. When I was a tween, my friends and I would skate Saturdays at Twin City. I remember S. Klein, Woolworth's and McCrory's, and I loved shopping at Hahne's. I went to South Side High. Remember the Milk Bar on Clinton Avenue? And I miss Hobby's Restaurant. They've never heard of half sour pickles in Georgia!

Thanks for taking me back......I lived right across the street from West Side High School. I don't even think that tree is there anymore. Puts tears to my eyes to see just how much the city has changed from being what it was til what it is now. So many great city landmarks gone. Thank you so much for sharing this. If you are a child of Newark, These are your memories......This was your city

Nice job!! Pabst bottle was such a landmark...!

[123RickGee]

I'm so very happy someone was wise enough to save such valuable photos. I'm now living in Florida, and have been blessed to have reached age 75. I remember working at S. Klein on the Square, my 1st real job at .80 cents an hour. Got my 1st .10 cents raise within 6 months and thought I was the "Cat's Meow!"

[ntvamrn]

Nice! But kinda fast. =)

[lyricsforever]

BRAVO!!!!!!! I can relate to diamond176, I remember a lot of this...thanks for the memories.

[diamond176]

It was great but it should have been slower..wow pictures went by too fast..I started to cry when I remembered all those things..wow I was there born and raised..i remember it all..

[vivrospetjon]

wrazzaq: thanks for the collage, but agree, much too fast.

[Augjim]

Nice job. Part 1 was good. All I can say about part 2 is, "what a shame"!

[jerryvitale427]

Thanks.... This is the best collage of Newark I've ever seen. BUT, I wish it was SLOWER.... Pics fly by too fast.

[wrazzaq]

Thanks Jerry, I know the speed was a little fast, the origional video is much longer. I promise that sometime in the future I'll do a slower more comprehensive video of Newark and its neighborhoods -

[jjrrhh1983]

@jerryvitale427 When i was watching this video i said the same thing u said the pics go by too fast, i had to pause the video just to get a good look at the different pics.

My old turf where I grew up. Such nostalgia

[jeriatric]

The buildings behind Woolworths were pre-Prudential....:52 sec mark. Too old for me. Sorry he didn't get a picture of the old Lackawana Broad st. station or the trolley exit behind Kleins (the tunnel exit from Penn station is still there). Thanks Wrazzaq
