Back Door of Lloyds

I might hazard a guess that the gate over this doorway on Columbus had been closed for well over a decade. The mural was painted over the gate. I never noticed any deliveries coming here. I think it’s the 99 cents store. Or maybe I just never walked by when the gate was up. So notice the lettering on the door, Lloyds Department Store – Receiving – in italics, isn’t that wonderful – 110 Railroad Avenue, when was the last time that was the official name of that street, the 70s, maybe? Well, I don’t have time today to go to Jersey Room at the library to do some research but glimpsing this piece of history this morning was fun.
