DiSalvo's fish market was on Main just north of Atlantic St...close to where Woolworths was.

Just curious, is DiSalvo's still on Main St? If not, when did they close up?
When i worked at Guy-Ross Chevy in the late 80s I would get the New England Clam Chowder from there on fridays...great stuff

Oh yes, I do....spent many a friday or saturday (sometimes thursday) nights playing there in my first band in the early to mid 80's. I was a teenager at the time, and Mr Dirt was always there..drunk as a skunk!
I saw lots of great bands pass through there too...RIP Johnny!

The people who bought the franchise from Guy Ross Chevrolet moved it down to where Heritage Lincoln/Mercury was and is now Hackensack Chevrolet...i don't remember the Jeep dealer, must have been before my time..

I think there was a place called Hackensack Suburban, either on Essex St or maybe State St that did conversion vans? I remember something by where Robin Pet Shop was by the S4 military store, and a place called Fun Truck'n, maybe it had something to do with one of those places..either a former or later name.

At one time we had almost all of the GM franchise dealers in Hackensack. Feldner Cadillac in Hackensack (where I started working in 1985).. Guy-Ross Chevrolet (also worked there).. Jack Schlein Buick on Main St....and Joseph's Oldsmobile (formerly Ratner Olds)..the only one we didn't have was Pontiac, and there was Sifford Pontiac-GMC right over the bridge in Bogota, still very close..

We all know and love this great place, but the sign needs some help!

Loved both of those theatres...such a shame they couldn't keep them going. Been well over 20 years now that they've been closed too, time flies

I never saw that one, but I had posted earlier about the milk machine next to the Old Judge on Vreeland Ave.
There also was one by Frontier Liquor and Deli at Hudson and E Moonachie Rd. that later changed to selling cartons of orange drinks
