Wish Upon Waverly

Wish upon Waverly brought out shoppers, merchants, kids of all ages, Engine #31, Councilwoman Mary Pat Clarke and Waverly Main Street volunteers Saturday.

On Merryman Lane there were photos with Santa, a bake sale, tours of the new Waverly Main Street office and the decoration and lighting of a Christmas tree.

Santa also roamed Waverly Farmers Market and Greenmount Avenue while St Johns in the Village hosted its annual Christmas Bazaar.

I learned that the space now occupied by Waverly Main Street used to be a shoe shine parlor run by Whitely Barnes and that it sat next to a busy branch of Western Union that sat just below a Little Tavern on the corner of 32nd Street, Greenmount Avenue and Merryman Lane.

One of my father's and my favorite past times when I was a kid was going to Little Tavern and sitting at the counter - those mini burgers were the best!
