Once upon a time

Places from the past - Hinsdale's building services supervisor, Jim Piontkowski, a Hinsdale Central graduate, moved to Hinsdale in 1971 and spent many years here in his youth. Having spent more than 40 years with the village, there isn't a lot about Hinsdale he doesn't know or hasn't photographed. This photo from 1979 is of the space that currently houses Que Miso and Vistro. And if you thinking parking is a challenge, consider the sign that is telling motorists to "back in only" to park. Do you have a Hinsdale photo that is at least 25 years old? We'd love to share it with our readers. Stop by our office at 7 W. First St. or email it to [email protected].
