 Pittsburgh-Oakland, Pennsylvania
3401 Blvd. of the Allies

 

 An elaborate-for-its-day complex, Oakland was overshadow a couple of years later when the luxurious Chatham Center facility was opened. With its lobby on the lower level and Restaurant/cocktail lounge on the first floor, the complex opened in the winter of 1964.

Note the Isley's sign in the lower left corner of the aerial shot seen above. Isley's was once the world's largest dairy store chain boasting more than 400 outlets. Just across form the Howard Johnson's was a 4-acre site that housed Isley's Pittsburgh plant. One of Isley's legacies lives on--the Klondike Bar!
