Ron: Hello again Teri, I had to smile when I bumped into your posting here. Something I didn't mention in my recent long e-mail was one time when I was playing on the Eastern Parkway mall and......

Esther Herschman (Rechtschafner): I like this site very much,especially when people write about PS 167. I lived at 1125 Sterling Place (between Kinston Ave. and Hampton Place) until I was about 14.I went to the Erasmus Annex......

in response to: Eastern Parkway Memories by Unknown

Doc S.......: Howdy again Willie: It's interesting to know the Franklin Avenue shuttle is running - when I was by there last year sometime it looked abandoned (President Street/"Botanic Garden" entrance)-all boarded and barred-up & overgrown with......

Warren S.: That pic of the CYO entrance is pretty depressing. I lived on church property, adjacent to that entrance. The church used to rent out apartments in the "old rectory," and my dad as the chief......

in response to: Ben\'s Deli by EvilGentleman

Mitch Spector: I took updated photos exactly one week later, on Sunday, October 12th. As they continue to strip away pieces of the building, it's interesting to see what sat hidden underneath the wrap-around sign all those......

in response to: Ben\'s Deli by EvilGentleman

Mitch Spector: These photos were taken during the early morning of October 5th. Despite the former restaurant site still, for the moment, standing, it is an interesting contrast when comparing the photos (above) from 6 months earlier. [[img:29147]] The......

in response to: Ben\'s Deli by EvilGentleman

Allan: Richie, I lived in the same building as Judy Oshinsky. I have a few photos of us back around '55-58. She had 2(I think) brothers. On the corner of Schenectidy and Union was a dry cleaner......

nk: This picture is not a picture of the school - and it's sad that you would want to give the impression that the school actually looks like this. This is the back of the school......

Paul Revere: I'm sure you can never receive enough accolades for your photography. Great work. Personally, I've roamed those tunnels repeatedly for the past year. As someone remarked you can't hear the train untill it's prcaticly upon......

Allen T: I visited New York and found this Pier by accident. What a pity that NYC haven't recognised what a tourist attraction this could be by saving it from just rusting away and turning the entrance......

in response to: Cunard White Star Lines by Peter

janet: Hi Stan--You're probably close to my vintage. I'm trying without luck to call up a memory of Famous on Schenectady--I lived just around the corner and went to 167--so there it was during the......

Galen J: I drove through this tunnel hundreds of times beginning in the mid 1950's. It always amazed me how AM radio stations would immediately go off once you hit the entrance. Driving a motorcycle through......

EvilGentleman: I dunno how terrorism is supposed to be stopped by more guns. If the terrorists are deterred by machine guns on USCG boats, then they are pretty lame terrorists. Fact is, America and Canada are......

in response to: Bishop Castle: Another Self-Made Masterpiece by Jim Bishop

Gregory Brent: Wonderful. Montreal is so livable! In the third photo, the building complex with the green roofs in the left foreground is Ravenscrag, home of Sir Hugh Allan of Allan Lines Shipping Co. It is sadly......

in response to: Mont-Royal Park by CE

CE: Not to be picky but the Metro entrance is actually in the art nouveau style, designed by Hector Guimard. Paris has dozens of them, many of them much more elaborate than this one. ......

in response to: Montreal Scavenger Hunt by CE

EvilGentleman: I am sure the staff at the local Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) store must think I am odd, since I will often hold my breath and dash at high speed through the entrance area, clinging......

Robin Majumdar: Great write-up and nice to include the photos as part of the story. I went to Dawson on Saturday with my 3 and 5 year old boys, who placed a small African Violet flowerpot at......

EvilGentleman: Yesterday's paper had an article about how there are bylaws coming into force to make bars put ashtrays outside their entrances. The city estimates that 600,000 people use the downtown core each weekday (not counting......

in response to: Montreal Goes Non-Smoking: Good or Bad? by EvilGentleman

EvilGentleman: Good point, Chris. Most of the truly spiral staircases are in fact, either fire escapes or accesses to rear balcony entrances. Then there are the double spirals, one for the left side and one for......

in response to: NDG by CE

Chris Erb: When I was in Montreal, I didn't see too many main entrances that were full sprial staircases like the one above. Most of what I saw (Mostly in the [Plateau], I didn't make it......
