j123 Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 It was at Central and Indian School Rd just south. The S/W corner of Central and Indian School had a Der Weinerschnitzel. The only fast-food place I ever worked. . . Correction, SE corner was DW. I ate lunch there enough in HS that I wouldn't forget. NE was Indian School and NW was empty lot with a billboard. Just north of IS on the westside was Carnation. Just north of that was Shakey's Pizza. It was at Central and Indian School Rd just south. What was the amusement ride next to it? Can't place an amusement ride but I'll probably remember when you post it. The super slide, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddie44 Posted June 24, 2010 Author Share Posted June 24, 2010 I vaguely remember that but I was in HS so I probably thought I was too cool to actually care about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chameleon Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Lost me when it got east of Phx/Tempe border. Me too. Back then, anything east of Scottsdale road was another country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jack52r Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 My family moved to Mesa in 1947. At first we lived in an RV park on Main St at Alma School road. There was a small airstrip at the NW quad that had a silver Aircoupe plane on it. I was in the first grade. There was a lot of empty area between Mesa and Tempe.

You were right down the street from the first Mesa Community College. It's located on the southwest corner of Main & Extension. It's currently called The Landmark Restaurant.

Eddie44 Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 We've been to the Landmark but I didn't know that was the first MCC. Anyone remember the trail that lead from the Biltmore Hotel under what is now Lincoln Dr and up into Squaw Peak? It had a special name. What was it called? In HS we used to go up there to party until the security guards chased us off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The "Pink Sidewalk" It was an actual cement sidewalk that went up into the Squaw Peak area from the Biltmore. They used it to do western bbq's for the tourists. We used it to party. Okay, we have some hockey fans here. Who were the minor league hockey team in Phx in the 70's and where did they play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie44 Posted July 3, 2010 Author Share Posted July 3, 2010 How about the restaurant that was on the NE corner of Central and Thomas. Hint: they had carhops. If you cruised Central this one should be easy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
