Yes, Lou, I remember it well. As a little boy, I would walk with my dad along Cypress Hills St. going towards the trestle. We rented a garage in the long row of garages near that. There was always a scruffy little dog lying in front. If I recall, Don remembers the dog's name. Just a little past it, on the other side of the street was Katie Sandwina's bar and grill. She was once the worlds strongest woman according to billing. By then she was getting older and I would see her by a side window eating at a table and wave to her. The front window of her bar was replete with many photos and news articles of her heyday. I never went into the Blue Terrace when I got older.
