This alley goes back to the 1920's back in the days when there were human pin setters. It was once ran by Anthony Choucri Riff who passed away in 2021 at the age of 82. He operated the place with his brother whose name was George. He passed away in 1995. The alley originally had 20 lanes but was later expanded to 40.
