The Cambridge connection

So, how many of you have been back to Cambridge since that June, 25 years ago? I know I've seen a bunch of you for previous reunions or passing through on business. Some of us still live here, or nearby. But I'm wondering how the Square will seem to those who haven't seen it in a while. For example, the Tasty is long gone – and this year we lost the Greenhouse Cafe, too. Some of us were mighty happy when the Tasty's successor, Abercrombie and Fitch, closed. And as we age, I miss Father's aka the Bow and Arrow Pub less (it's now a Baskin-Robbins). But does the Square really need another bank or cell phone store?

In the interest of looking back, I'd love to compile a list of what was there and what is there now. Contributions welcome - and if you're curious about an old hangout (Casablanca - still there, Hong Kong and Grendel's too), post a note and one of us will check it out.

Wursthaus and Tasty, now a bank
Bow and Arrow Pub, now a Baskin-Robbins
Elsie's, now a wrap/burrito place
Reading International, now an American Apparel
Wordsworth, gone and vacant
