Legal Tender, longstanding bar of yesteryear, was home to booze, cards, 'happy ... - Arizona Daily Star

The same could probably be said for a few reporters, judging from the florid postmortems that ran in the local papers after the Legal Tender fell to urban renewal in the waning days of 1969. By its final "last call," more than 100 "happy... "At one time, the Legal Tender had the longest bar in Tucson," says Eddie Jacobs, whose father, the late Eduardo Jacobs, bought the place in the 1930s, soon as Prohibition ended. Born Downtown in what is now the Sosa-Carrillo-Frémont House, the elder Jacobs was a third-generation descendant of Tucson pioneer Leopoldo Carrillo. Soon after, the original Legal Tender went in a few doors to the west on Congress Street. Then around the turn of the century, the Davis home was remodeled for commercial use, and the Legal Tender moved in for good at 80 W. Congress St. Rooms were let on the second floor to women described as "happy girls. Later on, those rooms became rentals and apartments, says Jacobs, renting from $6 to $8 a week for a room, $45 to $55 a month for an apartment. "People who liked to drink," says Bella Bowerman, Eduardo Jacobs' daughter and sister to Eddie. Besides the long bar, the Legal Tender also had tables and booths, remembers. Source: tucson.com

What the Annex was like in the 1950s and 60s - blogTO (blog)

Not only do I admire the architectural character of the residential streets, such as Howland and Madison (to name only two), but I'm constantly drawn to the stretch of Bloor Street between Bathurst and Spadina on account of the fact that it houses... Jack Batten, in The Annex: The Story of a Toronto Neighbourhood , writes that the middle- and upper-middle class residents gradually began to move to more exclusive neighbourhoods, including Rosedale and Forest Hill. Other older suburbs, such as the ones mentioned above, offered them more land on which bigger houses could be built, whereas in the Annex, lots are close to each other, offering limited opportunities for structural expansion. The move of numerous fraternities to the residential core of the neighbourhood north of Bloor was also seen as a deteriorating factor. University of Toronto expropriated some fraternal residences on St. George Street in order to construct Innis College and other academic buildings. The fraternities posed a problem particularly to the residents of Madison Avenue, Lowther Avenue and the north section of St. George. Trade in illegal drugs began in the 1960s in the Annex, and the residents of Howland Avenue jokingly referred to their street as "speed alley" at that time. Source: www.blogto.com
