gnu Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 sorry to pass along this news... The current Pupuseria and former Chuck Wagon on the corner of Broadway and Hartford (i think) has been demolished. Also the car lot next door - which is a former drive-in burger joint - is also gone. A new "boring" strip center will be replacing these two structures.

Vertigo58 Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 They demolished the wrong one. Should have mowed down the other former Chuck Wagon on Lawndale & Des Jardines. (Now a low down beer joint) We WISH there were a new shopping center in this exact spot. New topic. Its just as well though that was an ugly site to see but matches the underpass at 45/Wayside.

NenaE Posted May 7, 2008 Share Posted May 7, 2008 The one in Park Place, on Telephone Rd. was still there a month ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vertigo58 Posted May 8, 2008 Share Posted May 8, 2008 Hopefully the palm in the background wil be saved? This must have been the big hang out for local teens in it's hey day from nearby Dee Dee and Milby I'm sure. Just think, someone out there probably has pictures of the cool cars & crowd hanging around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
