5444) Nancy Vitelli Bruno nancyvf827@gmail.com Long Island Posted on: Dec 31 2011 | Just sitting here and thinking about days gone by. Guess it's a New Year's Eve thought. Mike Garrigan came to mind and I stumbled upon the Bay Ridge Site. This was hot about 10 years ago for Saint Anselm's Youth Center kids. We had our own link but I guess it gone but my memories of Bay Ridge will never fade. I had a blast and I am so glad to say I was a part of a fantastic place to grow up and had the coolest band in Bay Ridge. |

5427) John White jawjajon@msn.com Kathleen, Ga. Posted on: Oct 05 2011 | I just got a clipping from the Bay Ridge Home Reporter paper stating that Hinche's Luncheonette closed Sept. 29th. The primary reason was its monthly rent was raised from $7,500 a month to $10,000. Spent a lot of time both in Hinche's and on the corner of 5th and 86th in the early 50's. At least until the cops made us move!! LOL |
