Looking Back : Photos from the Archive
This image shows the corner of Castro Street and Evelyn Avenue ( then called Front Street ). Both buildings still stand today , although the one on the corner has been heavily remodeled . Johnny ’ s Cafe is now the long-time home of Vaso Azurro Ristorante , and the Post Office is now the location of Mongolian Hot Pot . After decades of operating out of various storefronts on the 100 block of Castro Street , the Mountain View Post Office relocated to a new building on the corner of Villa and Hope streets in 1960 . The post office remains there today , in a structure built in 2002 . A big thanks to Jim Pedersen for donating this and other images from his family albums . For more information on other items recently donated to our archives , see page 3 !
