My family moved into cottage #2 in 1966. The mill was a barber shop at that time; I played with my dolls on the back steps. On the east side of the trailer court was The Courtesy Motel, now The Mon Chalet. The original Zephyr Lounge was a trolley car and was just across the street on the south side of Colfax. All gone now, sadly.
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother lived many years at this location in Aurora when the place was called Dutch Mill trailer court.
