Tom, I’m surprised you didn’t mention Court Square Diner bc that’s been in LIC for a very long time and it actually used to be called Court House Diner. Also, Five Points used to be called The Phun Factory. I’ve been inside one time being invited by my friends who were “artists” lol and it was really impressive what they did to the inside of it. It’s a shame now it’s all gone but hey at least these new places have washer in units 😂. Great stuff as always Tom, keep them coming baby!

I remember I was in that area on a Saturday a few years back and they let me go in and work around and look at the Art Inside but this guy in the office just said don't take pictures of "artists" because some have open warrants - very cool place for sure the block itself was totally blue-collar businesses and was kind of dicey at the time

I grew up in the QueensBridge Projects. 41-14 12th street until Aug of 1962 when we moved to College Point Queens. I notice the street that Tom is on when he was doing the piece on the "projects" is not within the projects itself and for good reason. It was a fairly dangerous place in 1962 and probably alot more dangerous now so he was very smart to hang on the outskirt of the neighborhood.

In the early 2000s when the city rezoned the waterfront, it closed two private clubs that had been there for years: East River Tennis Club and Tennisport. The river front should absolutely be public space, but it's still jarring to see the waterfront look SO different! Also, RIP Waterfront Crabhouse!

Thank you again tomdnyc for your work/videos with these different historical excursions, stories about New York City... Also, about this Tv series " Sex and City". Even some one tell me that only way I have to stay alive, if I watch Tv series "Sex and City" or someting like this, for one year, I still couldn't watch this Tv series, unlike interesting, different kind other Tv series, like for example Horror tv series " Tales from the Darkside", Tv series " 30Rock", " Curb your Enthusiasm" and others... P.S. I lived 24 years in New York City and this city always remains a part of my life (the same home city, as my home city Tbilisi), with all its pluses and minuses, with its diverse architecture, culture, characters, history of different parts of this City... Sincerely, Alex
