Welcome to my group. I created this site to share and discuss familiar shopping destinations, past and present, in the DC area. In some photo albums, Baltimore and Philadelphia are included. All photos and images posted by Gary or Gary B. are my exclusive copyrighted images (unless credited to others). The images contained here are NOT public domain material. If you are interested in using images, please email me to confirm ownership. I collected these images for fun and archival purposes. As always, your own photo images are welcomed and encouraged. For great discussions and more photos, I highly recommend the "Remembering Retail" group on Yahoo. Enjoy! Gary
