File:Post office, across from the YMCA..jpg

Summary
Another view of the late 1950s demolition of buildings, including the old post office, across from the YMCA. The site made way for Brunswick Gas & Go, which opened in 1961. It later became Weil Bros service station and currently is LS Fuel.
Among the buildings left standing in this photo, only the last one to the west is still there today.
We think Werntz's store was at the far end, but not visible around the bend. Mulkey's Maytag Repair was in the building to the far west. Frank Wenner's barber shop was in the building with the double windows and Dr. Thomas Strothers' office was next door.
The buildings that once housed Foster's Lunch Room and Beatty's Sanitary Meat Market were among those removed along with the Post Office that was formerly the Yardley Hotel.
