Igf I am not mistaken, The Mick and Billy Martin lived at the Copncourse Plaza during the season.

I remember the movie theatre on 161st off River Ave. The whole area has changed. Still have Stadium Lanes (bowling) and the Yankee Deli, but it just ain't the same.

OK, here's a trivia question for you Yankee buffs:

Pepiton on first, Mantle, Tresh and Maris in the outfield, Ellie Howard behind the plate, Clete Boyer on third, Richardson on 2nd, Whitey on the mound. Who's at short??? Clue: 1964.
I do believe that would be Tony Kubek.

OK, what was the name of the movie theatre on Mount Eden about a block and 1/2 off the Concourse on the west side???

Who were you running from Barry?

What are you talking about. I wasn't running from anyone or anything. I moved to 221st and Bronxwood in 1966 when I got married.

Mike, was the Luxor that little tiny movie theatre not far down on the same side as, the Loews Paradise?
It showed foreign films, if it's that one, I remember seeing Diabolique the original one with Simone Signoret.

Posted

Barb, that one down from the Paradise was the ASCOT.....the LUXOR was at 170 just east of the Concourse.
