Downtown Altoona

by Matthew Villani
(Altoona, PA, USA)

11th Avenue

11th Avenue

Here's a picture of downtown Altoona on 11th avenue. Mostly what I remember is that although downtown was past its heyday, it was more active when I was little than it is now. For example, Woolworth's was still open and doing great.

Thank you Matthew for sharing your downtown Altoona photo with us.

Yes, downtown Altoona was once a goldmine for any business. I can remember when everybody walked through the downtown and the streetcars ran right down the middle of 11th Avenue. Gable's Department Store was like Macy's in NYC.

I wonder how many visitors remember the good old days in Altoona.

Don't be shy, tell us some of your memories.
