| Date: Tue 06/24/08 6:08AM From: John Email: Deaconjms@aol.com Message: A few months ago google maps hadn't done my old neighborhood (Lincoln between Jamaica and Etna) at street level, but I checked yesterday, and it's there. I "toured" the neighborhood and saw the house I grew up in, friend's houses, the Etna Street stores (the candy store is a laundromat, Schmidt's Deli is still a grocery store). P S 171 looks small, so does Blessed Sacrament (compared to some churches here in Michigan). Jack's pizzeria is still on Fulton near Crescent, but I didn't see Crescent Bakery or the Chinese restaurant upstairs. Mellor's and Adelphi are still there, as is Donnelly & Purcell Funeral home. Tilotta's building is still there, but Trunz Meat Market is gone.(I remember the ORIGINAL Tilotta's front, and how it was changed after the fire). The "stoneyard", at the foot of Lincoln sure has changed, too. Good memories, but it made me sad to see so many changes. And, everything seemed so big when I was little - the school, church, even my old house - and it looks so different now. Still, I wouldn't trade the memories of those days. |
