I grew up in the heart of Daly City and there wasnt a mention of Serra Theatre. How about Sierra Bowel? Heck; when I was a kid; my friends and I use to slip in there and the smell of smoke and liquor was enough to have you walk out intoxicated.. No mention of the produce market on Hillside Blvd; which had the best oranges in town! What about Totos Pizza; remember! The thick crust and the best cheese; was to die for! How about the cemeteries? Ok; maybe they are in Colma; but that is a mention in itself. You dont mention the scandals at the Mission Bell Hotel; notorious! There is a lot more to Daly City than the top of the hill!1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Where I used to live during childhood years...By Sheila J. SnyderWhen my parents decided to leave New York; we lived in Daly City from 1959-1971. My late aunt had purchased a home there (near Westlake)and told my father we should move there too. Many of the people listed in the book were friends of our family; and their children were classmates of mine. I attended Westmoor High (where the cabbage fields were) and miss the place since we moved from there in early 1971. I remember John Daly Bl. as Alemany Bl.; with much of the area basically brand new when we were there; mainly the Westlake area.The Serra Theater brought back memories after having gone there many weekends with friends for the movies. Westlake was the big shopping center; complete with bowling alleys; restaurants; lots of neat shops.Thanks for the great memories; I am sorry we left the area too soon for all the family friends to be remembered for the groups they belonged to.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
