I live in NJ, about 45 miles from Brownsville. My Wife was a teacher

at PS268 Clarkson and E.53 st from 1987-2002

I still use a dentist on Ralph ave and Glenwood Rd

I never go to Brownsville, now Ocean Hill Brownsville.

But when I enter Brooklyn I feel I have returned home.

BUT it has changed for the very worse.

El was not heard. I was not into Rock then. I grew up seeing movies.

My Mother took me to Ambassador on Tues eves. She collected dishes and wanted more than 1 set, so she took me so I got a free dish with admission. While you watched film, people would fall asleep and the dish would crash to the floor. The theatre would not replace so they would pay another admission. If you did not then your set would be short that place setting. It was torture to sit thru those joan Crawford films.
