Louis Shapiro, who flees violent attacks on the Jewish community in Odessa in early 1906, sells kosher meats and groceries to the Jewish community living on the Indianapolis south side. He moves from 1032 S. Illinois Street to 808 S. Meridian Street in 1912 and then establishes the location as a delicatessen-cafeteria in the 1930s.
