It was formerly a mattress shop and my grandfather made it into a one bay automobile service shop ... Triangle Auto Service, hence the triangular piece of property that it sat on. My father would go by after school and work there with him. <br />My father bought the building and company from my grandfather in the early 70's and operated it into the mid 80's on Stovall Street. I have such fond memories of the shop and the area. My sister and I would get to visit when we were little and loved playing in the playground across the street! Although it was a one bay garage, they could pull two cars in to work on and if they played their cards right and turned the cars sideways, via a car jack, they could fit three cars in. My father would park his car each morning in the "backyard". Back then, the shop was pine green and had a big iron gate across the front opening. For 20+ years this very property was a very important part of my family's life. <br />What a lovely surprise to run across this post. Thank you so much for sharing these beautiful pictures and this post and thank you for your admiration of this building .. and, for the record, my daddy would have gladly welcomed you in to peek around :)<br /><br />mrscmyeager at hotmailcmyeagernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595423154503946022.post-71262827007056545032017-11-03T16:57:56.534-04:002017-11-03T16:57:56.534-04:00The mechanic shop was Triangle Auto Service.

My father-in-law purchased the building many years ago and because it was in a triangle, that is how the name came to be. conyerss490@yahoo.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595423154503946022.post-67875808525458665102014-12-08T16:12:50.841-05:002014-12-08T16:12:50.841-05:00Corrections are always welcome and ususally needed...Corrections are always welcome and ususally needed, thanks so much.Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14154846109609330503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595423154503946022.post-66561470611253794042014-12-08T12:16:25.641-05:002014-12-08T12:16:25.641-05:00Please edit, it's Reynoldstown...

In the 80's it was a mechanic shop, you could drive your car right into the large square opening in the front. I believe it was once a pharmacy very early on, but haven't been able to find out for sure. (I used to work in the bright blue building across the street.)Meganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12993983414211985570noreply@blogger.com
