The old tailor’s shop is now a Starbucks, the Italian bakery was turned into 400 different things until it settled into a fro-yo shop and don’t get the born-and-breds started on the bars—the real ones.

And yet in this corridor of humming innovation, all well-lit and repaved a thousand times over since the days when the ivy clung to the leftfield wall of Forbes Field, pieces of the past still hold out. On a hot summer day, The Original Hotdog Shop still simmers and smokes out onto Forbes Avenue, and at night, its cursive neon sign still burns red.
