Lee Street Near Fruth School This photo was taken in the early 60s on Lee Street. That's the old Fruth School on the right. Today it's a parking lot and this old apartment building has made way for a Bank. Through the parking lot also on the right you can see the top of Lucenti's Boat Sales that sat on Washington Street where another bank building now stands. Let's blow this photo up and take a closer look...... Ahhh... the good old days when you could have a beer joint right across the street from a school. Heck, at Thomas Jefferson Jr High, and Charleston High School, all the kids went to one of the several beer joints for lunch! I'm sure that same could be said for many schools back then. The poster in the window to the right is advertising something going on at the new Civic Center on Nov 11th. The guys on the porch appear to be typical late 50s teens that are enjoying having their picture taken. TODAY
