More History:
Jonathan Kantrowitz
hi, loved the pictures. Can’t believe his car. Pa used to talk to me about his history when I would visit him at the car wash but the only car I remember was his old Cadillac. Just for the record, my father bought the car wash for Pa to run because he wanted to work and was going to buy a liquor store. Dad built the car wash with 3 of his friends and made up a story that he had to buy his partners out of the car wash and needed Pa to be the cashier as they had Juan to make a manager and run the employees. Much safer as liquor stores were open late at night and often robbed! Also the houses on north Ave belonged to my dad. Bubbie and Pa had a yellow house next door on the corner of Iranistan and North. From there they moved to St Pete. We lived in the front house from the time I was 4 until Inwood road was built 1950. Florence lived in the back house then moved to Stonleigh Road. My dad sold the big house but kept the back house and rented it out. When they came back from StPete they had an apartment by seaside park but Bubbie wanted the little house. Pa was already sick so my dad had a bathroom put in downstairs. After Bubbie died my dad sold the house to David.Pa also told me about owning a bank and loosing it during the crash but no one else in the family that I spoke with ever knew anything about it.
