Hackensack, NJ Community Message Boards

I lived in Hackensack (before that So Hackensack) on Hudson St from 1978-86..then on New St from 1986-95, when I moved to NYC. I have many great memories of our city, including being ON Lodi St during the filming of Jersey Girl.
I went to Immaculate Conception school on Hudson St by Rt.80, and Bergen Tech high school (class of 85) had a few paper routes as a kid, and sampled some of the best Italian food from various deli's I ever had in my life. My neighborhood was very diverse, and I had a mixed bag of friends growing up, from all backgrounds. It was a simple time, and it was great.

Hello again, does anyone remember the little market on Jackson Ave. right off of Hudson Street by Costa Bros? Or the candy store on Hudson by the corner of Kennedy, at one time it was called "Tessie's"

The street now named Wysocki Place used to be called something else, and there was a bar and a used car lot right on the corner. Anyone remember the old name of the street?

sorry, i didn't realize i had posted this question already! 
anyway, i guess no one has any pix of it..oh well 

check this link, good pic of something you might remember!

wow good stuff, i never knew there was a car dealer on that spot. was Eastern Electronics a Foodtown then or was that later on? I never saw the place as a supermarket, just heard about it. any idea when the Foodtown closed?

Does anyone remember Gino's? It was right by the railroad tracks across from Eastern Electronics. It became Roy Rogers and then later Mc Donalds.

Does anyone remember the used car lot next to the bar on the corner of Hudson and Wesley streets...and if I'm not mistaken, the next side street (now called Wysocki place I think) was also named something else...can anyone help?
