Today's #ThrowbackThursday features a photo from February 1963 of Hermann's Shoe Store at 42 N. Third Street, next to the Esquire Bar at the former Penn-Harris Hotel. In October 1937, Hermann Latt opened his second shoe store at this location. His first store nearby sold women's shoes, but this one specialized in "distinctive shoes for men." Unfortunately, the Penn-Harris would be demolished in 1973. (fb)

In September 1961, Uptown Lanes, a bowling alley located at 7th and Woodland Streets near Uptown Plaza, opened its doors. Brothers Ron, Bruce, and Mervin Isaacman operated the venue, making it a popular destination for "keglers." On Sundays, WTPA Channel 27 broadcast a live "Queen of the Hill" bowling contest. In 1981, the business was sold to Rob Lehman and renamed Capitol Lanes, which continued operating until its closure in 1999. #ThrowbackThursday #UptownHarrisburg (fb)
