I too grew up just a few blocks form the Oriental on Bay 16th Street. Whenever I saw that beautiful building it meant home for me. I lived in that area from 73-03. The Loew’s will always be a part of who I am. I’d love to see more pics of it from the 70s and or 80s or any old pics of 86th st. I really whole heartedly thank each and every one of you for your wonderful stories and memories. They made me feel so good to hear about times past. If anyone has any pics of the old neighborhood could you forward to ? I’d be so appreciative. I’ve been looking for a pic of “Leisure World” Toy store that was located on 18th ave just a few short blocks from the Lowe’s. Thanks so much again for the great reading. I wish you all much happiness and heath!

I’d really love to see a photo of the Benson from the 70s or 80s. I remember seeing Return of the Jedi, Grease, Superman, Goonies, Karate Kid and countless other flicks there. I’d love to see any old pics of 86st. Thanks for this site. It’s like the closest thing to a time machine and I am very grateful for all of you who left a comment with your wonderful memories. Best of luck n health to you all.
