You may not remember that Dee's Cigar Store used to be near the corner of 18th and Peach Street before this was demolished for the construction of the Holiday Inn. The address for the corner store was 1729 Peach, and 1725 Peach was next door. The Redevelopment Authority demolished the entire section across the street between Peach and Sassafras, from 18th Street north to the railroad tracks, for the construction of the Central Mall. This shot shows the northeast corner of 18th and Peach Street. Dee's was the second store north of the corner. Dee's current address is 1705 State Street in Erie, Pennsylvania.
