| Photo on the left is
my Mother, Marie G. Eubank, standing in front of Warwick's One-Hour Cleaner that was
located on 25th Street, directly behind (and connected to) the main Laundry building on
24th Street. The building in the background is the Warwick Hotel Annex, which housed a series of
lower priced or budget hotel rooms. Between the Annex and the Warwick Hotel main
building, part of which can be seen in far background (upper right side of photo), was a
small park that included a playground for kids. I spent many hours in this
playground before and after school (see A Little Personal History).
The Warwick
Hotel main building still stands and has a fabulous history (National
Register of Historical Places), (National Association of Housing and
Redevelopment Officials). The other photo is my Mom siting inside
the 25th Street office. Both photos was taken in the Winter of 1958. |
