Picture Windsor - Then And Now
An old photograph and brief story from Windsor's past, and how that site appears today.
WINDSOR, CT — This periodic informal series on Windsor Patch highlights businesses from the town's past and what those locations look like today.
The Windsor Historical Society has compiled digitized versions of the Windsor High School yearbook, Tunxis, dating back to 1951. Today's offering takes us back to the 1973 edition, and an ad from one of the town's longest-tenured car dealers: Ardery Chevrolet.
According to state business records, Ardery Chevrolet was incorporated in 1955. The dealership at 125 Poquonock Avenue was operated for many years by Frederick Ardery III. He passed away in 2022.
