Rick grew up in the Bronx and has told me so much of what you wrote about. He asked me to suggest you rent the old movie "Marty" with Ernest Borgnine. The movie has scenes which were shot on the Concourse in 1955. Rick gave me a tour of the Bronx this summer and completed the tour with a Yankee game. It was so much fun.

That's crazy. I used to go up there to do stories whenever I could when I was at the AP in NYC. Nobody else was into going there so I had the beat all to myself! Very cool that you remember the Paradise movie theater as well. Sandy I can’t believe I’ve known you for 20 years and didn’t know you grew up in the South Bronx!! That’s crazy.

My father owned a small supermarket near 149th Street and Southern Blvd. The Paradise Movie was the best for holding hands with a special date. Thanks for reminding me of special memories. Wow!
