Yeah, Marv, good find. I got the marching clue and figured it out. I don't know what it was called then but now it's Stars & Stripes Playground on Baychester Ave.

Oh ho! I think I got it but I'm not gonna post my answer. The big clue is in the announcements.

It's not Spofford, but there was a playground on Baretto St so maybe that's the Corpus Christie monastery in the background.

There is what appears to be a hi rise building to the letting the background. I don't think it is a NYC Housing Authority building. Looks like a building along the Bruckner Expressway N/B near where the old Korvetts used to be. I believe that would be the Castle Hill area.

After all these years I still can name them.

The playground is like a hundred others, but the building in the background looks pretty serious, like a prison or a reformatory. Could it be Spofford?

I don't know where that playground was, but seeing the sandbox brought back so many memories. Also, the note about the "parkie" made me laugh. Forgot about that too.
