I remember most of these places, but I specifically remember Taco Tico, Zayre, Montgomery Wards, and the old ice skating rink. I'm not going to lie I shed a tear for the Orlando I knew, miss those days.

Thank you for this. I grew up in Orlando, 2nd generation and I can not wait to show this to my mom. Odds are she will cry from the memories just like I did watching this. God I so miss Old Orlando, simple, easy, beautiful....

it's gone forever. grew up there. breaks my heart.

I was raised in pine hills and still live here and this was so awesome! I tried to see if I could remember some of the places…talk about a step back in time 🫶🏽

That's back when Pine Hills was a good place to live

Thank you for the Beautiful memories of Pinehills. A better change is coming soon.

We moved to pine hills in 1989. DAMN how times have changed. I miss the old days

Thank you so much. I wish I had taken more photos of places where I grew up - it's funny what we take for granted. I enjoyed revisiting my childhood!

I grew up in Pine Hills, and I remember all the places in the video. They bring back a lot of great memories. Pine Hills was a great place to grow up in the 50's through the 70's, but I wouldn't want to live there now. It makes me rather sad to think of the area's decline.

Wow trip down memory lane thank you my mother worked at the bar in that parking lot Anthony's liquor for 30 years

Thank you for the beautiful content! My family began in Pine Hills with my great grandparents of Lee and Rick’s… My grandfather owned Skate World and seeing that photo gave me a piece of him. Thank you!!

I grew up in that area where that Publix is at I was born in 71 grew up there through the '80s early '90s I was born and raised there used to be one of the nicest places in Orlando to move to there and Rosemont

Man,you nailed it.Every place i loved.The smokey pine hills theatre.Robinswood park!

Thanks for the walk down memory lane

I grew up in Pine Hill and remember it very fondly.

Well done. I moved to Central Florida in '92 and Pine Hills 6 years ago. I'm struggling to remember where many of these places are and what they've become. Thank you for sharing this collection.

I grew up in PH in the 70s and 80s I went to the OLD Ridgewood Elementary School. I don't remember a Frisch's Bigboy restaurant being there. I do remember the giant peaches on the corner of N Pine Hills road and W Colonial Dr. and the Taco Tico on Silver Star Rd. now Dominos Pizza. There use to be a Publix right behind it. I use to like pushing the returnable bottles on the belt of rollers in the back of the store for my mom and watching them go to infinity and beyond!

I grew up there. Went to Pine Hills elementary, Eccleston Elementary School, Meadow Brook Middle and Evans High school. Left they 29 years ago when I was 15

Thanks for the memories! Lived there since 1954

Nice! Grew up there ground zero, good photos; hard to find....love to see more.

This shows how nice and beautiful that place was. I hear stories of what Pine hills was back in the day. Now it’s a dump!!

Rimar was my backyard in Lockhart. Great vid.

I grew up in Winter Garden and spent a lot of time in Pine Hills area. Thanks, it was nice seeing these places.

I graduated from that high School in 1990

And the snow?!!! How wild is that?

I worked at piggley wiggley in the 80’s… I was looking for it

Even today Pine Hills is far different, but is still a Goldmine… Many places in PineHills are still the same. For those of you who left, you actually may have caused some of the downfalls.. ijs.. Cherish what you have and make the best of it.. Once you upgrade and start spreading the good news, there begins the abandoning process which allows new families from all over to take your old places

Taco Tico! 25 cent tacos..and Tom's Pizza! 15 cents a slice!! ...life was so much better then../sigh

I'm from here but was born 2011

Breezewood . Powers drive . 1974 / 1979

There was a musical instrument store in this plaza when I moved here in 1971. Does anyone remember it's name?

Mr Quicks Restaurant still open 2022 on hwy 50 and governs

Where did you find Hiawassee Elementary? Best lunch ever! Homemade yeast rolls every day!

I run a youtube channel with a buddy I met in Meadowbrook Junior High (not middle); the intro is about 'Pine HIlls Palace' where I go on about the 'hood...think of Graceland estate...

I went to Robinswood. Nightmare.

Pine Hills when it wasn't quite so crazy. Also from 3:40 on, that's considered part of the hills? I thought it was more Rock Lake area then the Hills.

Crime hills USED to be a nice place.i remember all those places!!

I actually know the people that own skate world it was a Delta family his dad built to Elvis Mansion over off hiawassee road

What happened hmmm!

Then crime hills happened

Air conditioning created life for southern America.
