The name 'Brady' has been associated with the area around Leavitt Road and West 21st Street for some time. Back when there were just two Brady families on the west side of Lorain, it was the other Brady Bunch that owned a lot of land near that intersection.
Brady's Restaurant (which was located just north of where Burger King is today) has been a favorite topic on this blog – even though it's becoming increasingly difficult to find anyone who remembers this well-named restaurant. Brady's Chuckwagon Chicken House was another business owned by John Brady. It was located next door to Brady's Restaurant to the north, in the building where Marco's Pizza is located today.
But did you know there was a third Brady standalone food enterprise near that intersection?
Brady's Dairyland was located "Just Around the Corner From ... Brady's Restaurant" as the Grand Opening ad below says. It ran in the Lorain Journal back on June 5, 1962.
(Brady's Dairyland had actually opened in late May 1962 as noted in this post.)

I think we got ice cream there a few times while going to Oberlin to visit relatives on the weekend.
I wonder what an "old-type" frosted malt is, sounds delicious!
Trust me, it is; if you run across them anywhere,try one.
