Throwback time in Chagrin Falls

Let's hear your memories of getting toys and bikes from stores in Chagrin. I personally liked seeing the bikes and toys on top of the food shelves in Fisher's during Christmas time in the 1960's

Where is it Wednesday?
HERE IS THE ANSWER:
This was a difficult one. This is a photo of Henry Church Sr.’s backyard. His house was on West Orange Street, where Coach house Square is today. This view is looking south from his backyard towards the river. The Chagrin Valley Little Theater is in this location today. You can see Henry’s blacksmith shop on the left. If you enjoy these pictures, we are having a live Where is it presentation on Oct 21 at 6:30 at the History Center. This program is sponsored by Sue Geiger. An RSVP is needed; light refreshments will be provided. RSVP to Maggie at [email protected] or call 440.247.4695. Free admission, suggested donation of $5.
