Blue Skies Over Morris Avenue, The Burg



Blue Skies Over Morris Avenue, The Burg
This is a picture I got in spring 2010 on a Burg
area walk. This was taken from where Chambers Street
meets Morris Avenue in the Burg. Click it and fill your
screen with Morris Avenue:))

Hi Mack: Bartolini's Liquor Store and Bar on the right hand side. Is it still the same business?

HI MAC...THAT CORNER IS WHERE TWO OF THE REAL POPULAR GIN MILLS OF THE BURG WERE LOCATED, BARTOLINI'S AND ROSSI'S. BEING LOCATED NEAR WETZEL FIELD WAS ALSO A BIG FACTOR. IT SURE BRINGS BACK MANY MEMORIES OF THE AREA. BEST REGARDS

Hi JoeZ & Ralph:)

Bartolini's is now a sports bar but appears to be doing OK biz..as least any time I am around the place it has people going in and out.

I love the term Gin Mill and Ralph is correct, Rossi's nearby:)

Gin Mill there is a term I haven't heard in years, my aunts use to call any bar a gin mill. LOL
