When it was on the news that Woolworth's was closing, I went there for a malted at the lunch counter. My mom took me there when I was little because her parents took her there. It was one of the few places that made an actual malted.
I miss Alexanders in Manhattan. You could get really inexpensive stuff there. It was across the street from Bloomingdale's. If you had money, you went to Bloomie's. If not, you went to Alexander's. Construction is almost completed the new Bloomberg building on the former site of Alexander's. It will be 54 stories and over 800 feet. It's huge.
