100 Years Before Gimme

cayugast.jpgIn the very early 1900's, there was still lots of traffic on N Cayuga St, the location of our original Gimme! Coffee espresso bar. In this historic photo, we're looking northwest at Cascadilla Creek flowing toward Cayuga Lake under the Cayuga St bridge. Our first Gimme opened on the corner of Cascadilla and N Cayuga St in 2001, about 100 years after this photo was taken.

What a great picture! Do you know, was the building there yet?

Great photo Janet.
What was in the Cayuga shop before Gimme! arrived?

I'm not sure when the building was built, but I know it was Jae Atchley's chiropractic office in the 90's, an antique shop in the 80's, and a paint store in the 50's.
