My sister and I loved the Kinema! I’ll remember Abbott and Costello meet6 Frankenstein seen there all my life. we lived on Essex Street. I went to P.S. 158 thru 4th grade and my sister went to BJHS in the early fifties. Does anyone remember the pizza place on Pitkin somewhere between the Kinema and Essex Street? That specific pizza taste has stayed with me like a Proustian memory. And does anyone remember St. Rita’s street fair that went on for blocks, especially at night when the string lights were on? Is it possible to start a blog about this neighborhood in the 50’s?
