Highrise Tower Posted August 10, 2022 Share Posted August 10, 2022 I was browsing an old neighborhood newspaper called Southwestern Times. The issue is dated September 13, 1945. Noticed an add for Mading's Drug Stores that had 3 store numbers and addresses listed. They must have been later stores since they are counting into the teens. Mading's Drug Stores No. 14 - 6602 South Main No. 15 - 2402 University Boulevard No. 19 - 1930 Bissonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboybud Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 The remaining stores became Eckerd's in the late 60s/early 70s. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Posted August 13, 2023 Share Posted August 13, 2023 That was an Eckerds in 1976 when I started at Rice. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
