Lol let me help with that one Bronx .... Louie prima, Sicilian from New Orleans lol but yeah, i am 33 Bronx. Born in 81 lol and correct me if I am wrong but damone lived close to St finbar Catholic Church on benson st and bay 20th so I am guessing he did live on bay 16th like you said. Either bay 16th st and benson or bay 16th and bath. He was church choir's finest there as a kid.

did you go to the wreck bar castaways? That place was wiseguy central back in the '80s. The Sheraton completely redid the place recently. It's all families now.

that whole strip is changed..diplomat was international union conventions.. thunderbird ,chinees restaurant..rascal house,,julius larossa's lets see who remembers that far..ia getting a headache knocking off the rust.. The Diplomat is a fucking behemoth now. I liked it better the old way. Not to mention the fact that Hallandale is a slum now. Don't get me wrong, the Diplomat is a beautiful resort today. But there's nothing there, and you don't want to get lost in that neighborhood at night. The Rascal House. My father and his coomps would go there just to order Jell-O .

60' and 70's hollywood hallendale were great quiet towns.. two tracks, valentino disco, lots of italians from NY some from chicago golden beach sunny isles..can not replace those times.. I'm 55, Bronx. I started going to Florida as a young kid in the '60s. By the mid '70s my parents had a place in Sunny Isles and they were splitting their time between Florida and New York. There were LOADS of Italians in that area back then. Today it's mostly Russians and Brazilians.

nino lived in sunny isles Jimmy Blue Eyes owned an entire high rise there. He never bothered to convert it into a hotel. But he'd set up a lot the Westside guys down there in the winter. Bal Harbour is still gorgeous. Barney has a place there. But since his wife passed away I doubt he'll ever use it again.

I was just talking about Runway 84. Same crowd as Martorano's. Except at Martorano's they make no bones about where they come from. At Runway 84, Anthony's father was the crookedest politician to ever set foot in the Queens courthouse, which is really saying something. But they would have had you believe that the old man was Gandhi. That said, I like Runway 84 because they're stuck in the past. Just like me . The Tack Room, yeah. That's where all the babas met up. Fuck the pool bar .
