☞ REMEMBER: 141st and Amsterdam circa 1910


A photo taken in Hamilton Heights back in 1910 shows a shop on a familiar corner of West Harlem's landmark neighborhood.  A couple of neighborhood ladies catch up with one another in front of what appears to be an old grocery store with Heinz and olive oil brand signage in the window.  Many folks might know this corner as The Grange these days and the popular restaurant has brought back some of that historic charm back to the neighborhood.
