Anyone else still say Genovese
even though the name has changed twice now? DH and I both still call the ones around here Genovese.
I was telling a neighbor where a store was and said "In the shopping center with Genovese" and they had no idea what I was talking about.

I do that with the shopping center near my parents' house. It was Genovese for so long, I can't call it anything else!

Re: Anyone else still say Genovese
Yup, I do that too. There was a place in Levittown called Caruso's for years and years. It's changed names a lot of times but when we were dispatched there from Firecomm in Maspeth, they would always call it "The old Carusos" too.

Re: Anyone else still say Genovese
I also still called it Mid-Island Mall instead of Broadway Mall until a couple years ago.
I'm stuck in the past I guess.
