S & Q Clothiers

 

It's ThrowBack Thursday!  While looking for images for another project, I came across this picture taken a decade ago.  Broadway may be the main drag, but the alleys still have character.   S & Q Clothiers, part of a chain, was a premiere men's clothing store downtown about 1950-70s.  I haven't checked recently but assume the sign is still on the backside of the empty building.  Lubbock laid its first brick streets in 1920. One of the first projects was Broadway from Avenue F west to Avenue K. In all, 20 downtown blocks were paved with bricks at a cost of just less than $200,000.  And yes, the alleys were paved as well.
