And he was old then !!!!

TOM; I LIVED IN 1465 NELSON AVE. FROM 53 TO 64

Herb & Larry,
We lived at 1382 Plimpton Ave, 47 to 59. My brother Bob worked delivering orders at the butcher shop on the corner of Shakesphere & Boscobel. I went to PS 11, he went to Sacred Heart.

Michael, I lived at 1000 Grand Concourse for many years through the 50's and 60's. My bedroom overlooked the Ursline Academy which was a catholic girl's school. I remember watching the girls playing on the grounds. Executive Towers went up shortly before my father died and my mother moved in there in 1970. She lived there for several years before moving to Florida. It was a great building and I hope you enjoy it as much as she did. Margie

David King of the Bx- RE:"when did you move"
I hoped around in the 1970's; lived in a pvt house betw. 166th and 165th on the Grand concourse, west of Carroll Pl, moved to Inwood (upper Manhattan), then Pelham Pkwy (2 blocks south of Jacobi Hospital) then from 1975 have lived on City Island

Mtbny et al- The name of the Church adjacent to Executive Towers was St. Simeons- an Episcopal Church; I had my confirmation there around 1964 at a ripe age of 15. Happy new year all!

Parkchester! Graduated St Raymond's Grammer School in '61.Moved to LI.Got married and moved back to the Bronx in '69. My ex was attending Fordham at the time.Lived on the Concourse and about 165th St then.
Beautiful apartment.Hardwood floors,magical molding through out and the rent was $72 a month.(And all the roaches you could eat)

I lived on 197th st. and Pond Pl. in one of the two brownstones(324 E. 197th. St.) Pond Pl. was only one block long and went from 197th to 198th Sts. At 198th. St. was Mt.Saint Ursula, an all girls high school. It owned property from 200th. St. to 198th. St. and from Bainbridge Ave. to Marion Ave. One very large block. Could it be the same school??

I lived on Calhoun ave
Williamsbridge Road
Burke ave
Library ave

and then I escaped !

Here are by Bronx abodes with approximate years.
1- 138th St.& Brook- 1961
2- 139th St. & Brook-1965
3- 143rd St. & 3rd Ave.- 1979

I then left the Bronx and got married to a Trenton, NJ girl, and moved to Hamilton, NJ. I've been in Jersey since, however, not with the same girl, and a lot closer to the Bronx, in Englewood, NJ.

I lived in the Morris Park section of the Bronx for 34 years. I now reside in beautiful Melbourne, Florida.

Lived in Morris Park area( near pierce ave) til 1987, Great neighborhood miss it

Not the best places to grow up, I lived in my whole life.

I lived...

-Near E Burnside Avenue and Grand Concourse.
-Near the Cross Bronx Expressway and University Avenue. (Limited time)
-Watson Avenue and Morrison.
-Randall Avenue and Rosedale, Soundview Projects (Limited time)
-Then again Watson Avenue and Morrison.

Bxone,
i was on my way back to ga yesterday i was on the
crossbronx i looked over on 3rd ave and noticed new stores how long have they been there and how's it helping the neihborhood?

Oh you must be talking about the new super market near Southern Blvd and Boston Road, not 3rd Ave. Yeah thats brand new and giving the community some new jobs and a source of more food. 3rd Avenue and the Cross Bronx is just factories and a bunch of empty lots.

Another positive thing trying to help the lives of my soldiers, trying hard to live in the face of hate. Many more jobs are still needed.

Spent 1953 through 1962 at 2880 Morris Park Ave, now St Theresa's Ave. Attended St Theresa Grade School and Cardinal Hayes High School. Moved to Kansas as a High School Sophomore. I remember Bob and Jacks Candy Store and Soda Shop on Westchester Ave, and Mike and Tony's Barber Shop two doors down. Spent most of my time at the Library and the Movie Theater at Westchester Square, RKO Castle Hill, Loews Parkchester, etc. Went to lots of Yankee games and played little league baseball in Pelham Park near those huge cement bleachers that used to be there.

Happy New Year,everyone. New to the site...grew up on Claflin Ave between University Ave. and Webb Ave. Down the block from Our Lady Of Angels school. Graduated from that school in '66. Went on to Hayes and grad De Witt Clinton in '70. This site brings back great memories.
