FROM THE MAILBOX -- MEMORIES OF THE BROOKSIDE TAVERN

Christmas sems to bring out the nostalgia in quite a few folks---especially those who have since left Croton.  A reader was trying to remember the name of the "tavern, a restaurant that existed before the highway came through" where she and her family often marked celebratory affairs like birthdays and holidays.  

It is probably the Brookside Tavern.  Here's a 1949/1950 ad you may enjoy.  There's also a zoomed-in image of Brookside CIRCA 1957. Click on the photos below.
