There are A few "hubs" in the Bronx.One of them was West Farms. Between Boston Road and Bronx street there was all kinds of shops.Three bars(with 4 more on Boston),Bickfords,Liquor stores,banks,bowling alley,pork store,RKO Chester,army/navy mens shop.hell all that you needed.Behind the stories was A bum camp,And of course the Bronx River.A Huck Finn playground for kids.The bars and Bickfords provided enough wack-os to add "street life".Where was your "Hub"
