Jean; I remember Your Host restaurants very well. The other one you were thinking of was "Decco" Restaurants they were all over the city when I was a kid. The one thing I remember about Decco was their coffee and their peanut stick donut, they were great.

Anyone remember a restaurant on Delaware Ave in Kenmore maybe called Your Host? From the early 1960's?they use to grill cinnamon rolls. I think it was also another restaurant named something else?? Trying to remember the name ! Jeanlannen@mac.com

I have an old picture of City hall taken during construction. The building is totally wrapped in wooded scaffolding. Also have a few of the Central train station taken during it's construction
