Do You Remember Imagine Gift Store?

This week's location to get your wheels turning is Imagine Gift Store in Warren.

 

Businesses come and go in every state and town. But how far back can you remember?

You can't miss that big blue building and colorful cow next to Warren Baptist Church while traveling down Main Street in Warren. Today, Imagine Gift Store, located on the corner of Miller and Main Streets, is home to a retro ice cream parlor and three floors full of interesting knick-knacks and novelties. But think further back and try to remember what other businesses inhabited this location that you may have frequented in past decades.

Post your memories in the comments section below.

I remeber seeing the Beatles movie "Yellow Submarine" with my brothers as a child at the old Lyric Theater.

I spent many a happy Saturday afternoon with my best friend Debbie watching movies at the Lyric Theater. Those were wonderful times. I miss the Lyric and I miss my dearest friend Debbie.
