This is the site of the first McIninch Dry Goods Store.
For a number of years, this corner was owned by the Beckley Family and they operated a filling station, a restaurant, a used car business and a repair shop.
The present realty company building is the sum of all these parts.
Located on the south side of the street at 19th & Frederick Avenue.
The Lunch Box cafe was owned by Bradley & Stella Christie who were also the owners of the Snow White.
Emillo "Jimmy" Pinzino purchased the Lunch Box Cafe from the Christies in 1945 and called it the Music Box.
The Music Box became a popular young adult hangout.
The Music Box was later renamed to Dante's Italian American Cuisine.
It became well known around town as just Dante's.
The restaurant closed on New Year's Eve, 1973 and was later sold.
There have been numerous businesses in this building since.
