Lets take a trip down the memory lane, 1960s: From Paco, where all buses still passes thru Herran St., one will take De Castro Bus to Quiapo. The bus goes straight up to Taft Avenue turning right. Going straight, the bus will pass Jai-Alai Fronton heading towards MacArthur Bridge and you will see the Matropolitan Theater and Post Office. Upon reaching Sta. Cruz near Feati U. It will turn right at Carriedo and one will see Clover Theater and Commando Karate where Rolando Gonzales and his brother teached. Walking to Avenida, one will choose whether Good Earth Emporium (classier) or Madison Department Store. That time a saleslady will approached you, give you the right shoe size, get your money and return with the goods and change. Heading to Paco, will ride again the De Castro Bus that goes straight up under Quezon Bridge turning left to Quezon Avenue. It goes straight up to Azcarraga (Roman Super Cinerama) turning right there. Heading straight again up to Malacanang, turning left heading towards Rotunda (where the original fountain stands) turning right to wooden Nagtahan Bridge, turning right again at Otis going straight till Isaac Peral. (Rice and Corn Administration where Adriano was beheaded) right turn at Paz St. Fare then was only PhP 2.00/one way.
