Picture
-Got caught smoking my first cigaret by mom in the arcade and not in school. Boy was that a 10 point day lol
-It was the location of Maw's candy store while I was growing up.
-Gail, wasn't her store just a little bit down from the corner?
-I just remember row housing, Linda Pilgrim. The entrance had a step down into the store. I thought it was the first building but it might have been the 2nd one.
-Spent a lot of time at Maw's when I should have been attending mass at the church on the hill...I think it was the 2nd bldg...Simone Bodin..
-HI Gail. You must be related to the Mrs. Pries that ran the snack bar at the old arena. Such a warm, friendly person! Great memories.
-i think it was jarvis bike shop arcade was beside it?
-I think your right pete
-was the Arcade in the 80s for me.. Danny Edwards owned it
-That pic of the Arcade around1979, we lived in one of the row houses for awhile
-I remember when Jarvie's owned the bike shop downstairs and lived upstairs in the aptment - had some good times babysitting Laurie and Debbie Jarvie lol lots of stories for another time !!
-I'm pretty sure the bike shop moved under Gibbies in 1970 I have a picture of the day Dad opened it Julie was about 2
-What year Jacki
-It would have been in the mid 60's - 1965-69 cause I was in high school then 🙂
-Who remember the monkey in the window, when it Maws? Wasn't it Fosters Cycle, at the corner? The house that was the store burned down, and the concrete thing took its place.
-Okay -- I thought that was the entrance to Maw's?
-I lived in the house that burnt down in around the early 60's....
-I remember Maws and the monkey. Penny candy was great till my mom heard about the monkey. Best penny candy at Joe's Tuck shop on Main St. I remember you living there. I attended your sister's birthday party there.
-Richard, I know the Mr Foster (not sure if it is the same one) had a bike shop at the corner of Maple and Mountainview Road...
-yes, that's him. Right across from Hunter's Inn for many years. I can't remember if he ran the store first and then moved the business into the house, or from the house he moved downtown. I learned that Turtle Was Paste and steel wool can bring back a rusted bike wheel to a new shine.
-When it was built what was occupying it?
-not sure the year they sold it
-I remember hanging at the arcade all the time that was 72-73 then
-I remember the arcade, I had dental surgery with the dentist that had his shop above the arcade, when we were done, can't remember how old I was not very old,but we left the dentist office and started to walk to our car, I passed out ( fainted ) out by the carpet barn, a post man saw my mom struggling to get me up, he carried me in the arcade and put me on the pool table.lol. We interrupted a pool game..sorry!!..lol
-Thanks for the memories Bonnie 😜
-It was a fish store in the mid 90’s for a few years.
-Dr Wolberg! I had so many cavities as a kid.... I hated going there of course.... but he was so nice everytime

-Yes the arcade was in the end unit of those dumpy rowhouses. But didn’t it move into this new building for a brief time??
-Harry Greig had his Dental Office there for many years. Beside Ma's was a dry cleaners and then Steins Dairy. My sister-in-law lived in one of the appartments. Met my future husband across from there.
-Ken and Colin Donaldson live back of that building the Maw's was in the Dairy Bar was at the corner of next to the Hydro Office, Stein's . They home a depot there
-Pretty sure I remember Maws in where the arcade was. Next to the building that burned down. Then the new building was build. When Maw left Georgetown she opened a small store on York Rd in Guelph.

-I spent a lot of money in this arcade during my high school years. I believe Gaunlet was my poison.. good times
-Jean’s Variety was at the end of the row houses before she moved to Steen’s Dairy building. If I’m remembering this correctly this was about 68 or 69.

-It was definitely Lloyd Foster who lived there
-Ya Fosters, then they moved to the corner of Mountainview & Maple, across from Hunters Inn. who remembers?
