Here’s a classic Colonial Plaza photo from the 70s when “cruising the plaza” offered a chance to show off your ride.

Also known as the “line-up”, it was where young people would drive through repeatedly, meet up with friends, grab a bite at the nearby McDonalds or Burger King, and basically hang out. If you had a muscle car, all the better, but the family station wagon would also suffice.

Note the old style Burger King in the distance. Burger King is still there today (198 Thomaston Avenue) but it has been remodeled a couple times since the 70s.

I won’t ID the GTO guy here. Maybe he’ll stop by and ID himself.
