Pampell's was an important place in my childhood. No one could make a chocolate malt like Emmie Kneese. Virgie Morriss kept the best candy bars in stock, and the Hoods ran the pharmacy on which we relied. Here are some images of that part of Water Street, taken from different times and different angles.
