York Avenue, June 1906

This photo was taken in front of my great-grandparents fruit stand on the southwest corner of 75th Street & Avenue A, later named, York Avenue.

From left to right, my great-aunt Mary (b. 1899), my great-grandmother Giovanni Cuccia, eight months pregnant with my grandmother. Anna Cuccia, later Ann Pryor Rode, to her right, two great cousins.

My family's been on York Avenue since 1896.

If you can come to the reading tonight, I'll tell about old Yorkville.

be well, Tommy
