I bet there are a lot of southside natives that remember Dodson's.
We thought Atlantic-Mills and Spartan were the greatest stores in the world. Jim's IGA was our grocery.

I remember Dodson's very well. Was the grocery store on the corner called 'Big Value'? We were members of the Hillcrest C.C.

Katz was there? I'm trying to see the sign. I think I'm only seeing the downtown store on the corner. I don't remember that part of Mayfair Village. J.C. Penny's, Rothschild's and B.C. Clarks were in that SW section of the center as was OTASCO.

Are there any photos on the web of these areas?
