Well, let's see here. In Cooper, Kong's Restaurant has been around for a half century. The Diner on 26th and 27th about the same. River-Lake Hardware is very old. The White Castle at 36th and Lake as been around, I think, since the 40's. Hi-Lake True Value is about the only thing left in Hi-Lake that hasn't become something other than what I originally saw there. The Savers used to be a Country Store. The Reuse store used to be a J C Penney. The Bumper to Bumper used to be a Champion Auto. The #1 Vietnamese Restaurant used to be a liquor store.
Oh, and there's an office redevelopment right across the street that once was a Furniture Barn where most of my furniture (which is pretty old) came from. ===== Jim Mork Cooper Neighborhood Longfellow Community Minneapolis A great town, which can and WILL BE greater! __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
