For displaced, misplaced, and nostalgic ex-Bronxites

Posted by John on Wednesday, May 7th 2025: In Reply to: Re: JFK in the Bronx posted by Edwin Martinez on Saturday, May 3rd 2025: There was Riverdale and there was Bronx 63 and I grew up on Tyndall Avenue and 262nd Street which was “Riverdale” but as unassuming a Bronx neighborhood as there ever was, and my best buddy lived (gasp!) deep in the heart of “Riverdale-Fieldston” just off the highway at 246th street – “real” Riverdale. To those of us kids who went to Saint Margaret's and (later) Saint Gabriel’s and/or PS86, we knew who the hell we were and it didn’t matter then and it really doesn’t now. I’m 96 years old and all of my great old memories have dates on them but none seem to have zip codes. Reference ID: BX92908 Responses:
