Meanwhile, in the right front window...Let's see how much longer the landlord will allow the memories to last...I took these photos late Sunday afternoon...[Update: See the comments...Jeremiah reports that the thank-you sign and photos are gone...while another commenter correctly points out that the landlord is the former owner of the business.]

fantastic!
i went by recently and these old photos were no longer in the window.
Wow. Thanks for letting me know, Jeremiah. Guess the landlord doesn't want us to remember!
Aren't the original owners and the landlord one and the same? The family that ran Rosemaries (later Five Roses) still lives in the apartment above the storefront. My guess is that all those photos and text were not from Krystyna but from that family. They passed the business to Krystyna about a decade ago but still feel for it's history.
You're right, anonymous... I didn't read Jeremiah's post closely enough!
I've lived here my whole life and it was one of my favorite pizza joints.
Goodbye roses.
