I lived on Menahan more or less 20 years ago and it looked the same. I haven't lived in Brooklyn for 10 years now. Gracias for the memories of the neighborhood and shopping with my mom.

Good job, Peter

I live right on Menahan Street this store is not there anymore it has been replaced with a new 99 cent store. I'm happy the store in the picture is gone it had this man who would yell from 9 in the morning till closing time "JEANS FOR 5 DOLLARS!". I could hear him in my apartment it was awful!

I lived at 49 Menahan and attended PS 75 in the 30's. The neighbor hood was 'family' and we all knew each other very well. Summers in the evening were sat on the 'Stoop'. I remember Skillman and Porter families. There was a saloon somewhere to the left of 49 and some wild goings on. I forgot the name of the candy store owner but he did chase us a lot. My family name was Warnke.

sorry, I am new at the computer game, forgot to include my email address. My name at the time of the Menahan childhood ( circa 1930-1938 ) was Minni Warnke.
