pepegot1, I’m not familiar with 703 Amsterdam as all of the buildings on the East side of Amsterdam btw 94-96st were demolished for 711 and 733 Amsterdam Ave. My Grandmother owned the Chow Yee hand laundry, and yes, it was Chinese. There were a few Chinese hand laundrys that she was involved with but she sold them all to raise us from the 70’s on. I remember going to all of them after school with her so she can check up on them. There was a Chinese hand laundry called Joe Sings at 210 West 94th St, btw Amst & Bway ,
Leonglie on 95th St btw Broadway and WEA (next to The Thalia). I am slowly going through and scanning my dad’s negatives. Lots of Upper West Side photos from the late 60’s
My Grandparents owned a hand laundry located on 702 Amsterdam Ave. In the window is in an advertisement for the Parkwest Theater. After Googling the dates and name of the theater, This is the only site I found that acknowledges the theaters' existence. Since I found no photos of this theater, I decided to share my photo for the advertisement of it in the window
