Moved to ENY (Berriman corner of New Lots Ave)1964-1972. Nothing like the good old days in Brooklyn. Does anyone out there remember the Romano twins in Franklin K. Lane. They were very popular back then. Everybody wanted to hang around with them. Like they said in east n.y there is no place like home!!!!! Regards to all my fellow East newyorkers |
