What about the Diner on Bruckner b4 Tremont ave. Or the Theater on Tremont, before Martin Paints & around the corner, the precinct. The pvt clinics & lil lawyers offices down Tremont ( away from Bruckner). I dated a gal who lived by the tollbooth plaza. God, was it noisy @ all hours.

Kinda mad that they didn't include Throggs Neck Housing Projects, but I guess that doesn't go along with the whole image they're trying to portray.

The unfortunate thing is when I grew up in the projects (1963-1980) it wasn't like that.There were nice wooden benches, the landscaping was always taken care of and you neighbors (regardless of color) looked out for each other. I remember my dad leaving the door of our apartment open all night during the summer to catch the breeze coming in the hallway window from Ferry Point Park. In 1981, when I came home from Army Basic Training, my car was torched in the parking lot. That and the growing influx of drugs in the neighborhood was my wake-up call to leave...

I agree. I lived in Throgg's Neck (Clarence and Layfette) from 1962 until 1968 and lived in West Palm Beach from 2012 to 2013 and never saw the resemblence. How high do you have to be to confuse the two?

I went to Preston High School in Throggs Neck. The original school building, also known as "The Huntington Mansion" or "the mansion" to students & faculty, was the 19th century waterfront home of Collis P. Huntington, who purchased the property from Frederick C. Havemeyer, Jr. in 1883. Havemeyer had purchased the property earlier from Thomas Ash in 1862. Prestonites believe the mansion is haunted by a ghost named Archie who often gets the blame when things go missing around the building.

Wait a minute. The most interesting thing in Throggs Neck, and you literally "mention" it for 3 seconds? Fort Schuyler aka "Maritime College" is the oldest Maritime academy in the U.S. there is also a naval Base adjacent to the campus. There is a 565' training vessel docked under Neath the Throggs Neck bridge and a large military "community" affiliated with Maritime College. Not to mention cannons being blasted across the way during home coming football games and Cadet inauguration ceremonies.....and you people yap about the friggin streets 🤦

+Frank White (frankwhite8e) I grew up there and it was always referred to as the Northeast bronx relative to the West bronx Fordham Road and the South Bronx that burned up in the early 70's. The difference between Pelham Bay Park and Coop City is small difference, youre talking a few miles versus that whole area and the rest of the Bronx. If you go a few miles north you're in Westchester county. You cant get too much further north from the areas you mentioned and you are out of the City.

I lived on Revere Avenue for my firs 27 years. Attended St. Benedict's School, St. Helena's H.S., and Christopher Columbus H.S. Two of my sisters attended P.S. 14. We had an Irish setter, Corky, who wandered freely around the neighborhood and was loved by all. There were eight kids in our family, ten people living in a semi-attached house, beginning in 1937.
