Not my favorite but I see the last 84 Lumber (in this area) out there in Owego is closed for good. I've heard they had really GOOD lumber at a reasonable price for the higher quality you got.

Actually, the one in Kirkwood is still open.

The Slocum water gardens on Front Street.

 

Was it Slocum or Lamonica water gardens?

I don't recall these Water Gardens...what exactly were they?

 

It was an aquatic nursery built by Perry Slocum who was a horticulturalist and raised water lilies. Like everything on Front St., I81 displaced it.

Was Popeyes also The Flying Machine, or Snoopys?

 

 

No, Popeye's was in the Northgate Plaza, on Front St.

The bars you mentioned were in Endwell, I believe...I almost think they were the same location, but not being from there, I'm not positive.
