Man, this topic makes me feel old.... I went to Lincoln too, also lived close to the school after moving from Grant. I spent alot of time in John's.
I had a great time living on Grant ave, I was young but it had everything a kid could ask for, corner store, huge lot to play in at the end of Grant and lots of other kids to play with. Remember the ramp to get on 280 was at the end of Grant...
By the way the Fish Market was Quincy's...
