An old photograph of the main intersection of Uptown Whittier, Philadelphia and Greenleaf. The drugstore on the right stood til the late 1980's or early 1990's when it was converted to a Rocky Cola restaurant. The original Drug Store had a small diner in it that served good basic food. Jeri and I ate there quite bit during the late 70's and throughout the 80's. This was a real deal old school drug store, not a retro. We still miss it. Just one more thing that is disappearing from the American landscape. Also, the shop on the right side of the photograph is now a Starbucks.
