Hicksville's Revitalization
By Wendy Elkis Girnis ('77)
If you grew up in Hicksville, chances are you either worked at one of the stores in Mid-Island Plaza, or you worked at Sears. You probably hung out at the mall with your friends on a Friday or Saturday night, or maybe you went to see a movie at the Twin Theaters during the summer or during winter break. Maybe you took the LIRR to the city to see a play or skate at Rockerfeller Center. Those days are over. Hicksville’s downtown is going through revitalization.
