Those were the days! I’m the amother from the other thread who lived on 89th and Remsen. I figured I’ll make a spinoff.
I mostly remember the people who lived on our block and there were a lot. And the Feins especially since we’re still friends.
I added Canarsie because it was so close and we had friends from there.
We davened in Yodei Binah, which my understanding, chabad owns the building now.
Don’t know how old anyone is, but remember:
Irvings pizza in Canarsie and they had separate prices for chalav yisroel and stam
When Moishe’s used to have his small grocery store
Kosher City
The fire that killed a mother and two of her kids (I don’t remember it, but because of it, my parents discussed and figured out routes to leave the house, just in case. Well, we did have a fire and bh we were all saved)
Walking to Canarsie for tashlich

Here for it. Let's reminisce.
Bnos Yisroel playground equipment, metal frames and wood planks to climb on over cement ground, those were the days, Mrs Pollack bottle of iodine.
The crossing guard, she was there for years, that same one.
A certain family birthday parties with those little sandwiches cut into triangles. I loved those.
Marmaduke who lived on 92nd.
The playground on 88th with that sunken sprinkler area that was fun in the fall to walk around.
The fact that if you say which block and the first letter of the family last name or one thing about them or that they had most people will know who you are referring to

Canarsie girl here. I remember the Feins. And lived only a few blocks from Irving's pizza. Though I don't know anything about separate pricing for cholov yisroel.
Tashlich was practically around the corner for us.
Bnos Yisroel-in 2 different buildings. The spanking machine on the roof! Our playground was the driveway between the 2 buildings.

In bnos yisroel elementary school, the english principal-Mrs. Pollack-would tell us that there was a spanking machine on the roof. For kids who misbehaved. I think she said she would put a quarter in the machine and it would spank the child who misbehaved. No one I know was ever bad enough to find out if this was true, but I'm pretty sure I believed her.

I asked my sister who Marmaduke was and she doesn’t remember. She said to ask our older sister, but didn’t yet. Who was Marmaduke?
That playground! I loved it and the see saws. So much fun!
My sister and I came up with a list of names that we remember. See if you can add some more and is your name there?

How long did you live there? We lived there from I think when my parents got married in 1965 until we moved in 1984. We were one of the first ones to move on our block and our neighbors were very upset who we sold the house to, but that’s all who was buying. We moved because we were growing out of our house BH.
We lived on 89th and for about a year on 92nd when we had the fire.
Not that where we moved we were looked at strangely, but we had a dog and no one blinked and absolutely no issue (as far as I know).

Gindoff
I was friendly with a few of you. I lived in Flatbush and my grandparents lived in Remsen Village. I became friendly with Canarsie girls when Bnos Yisroel closed down I think and the girls started coming to Flatbush schools.

You don’t know if it was my sister or me because when we were living there, we were 3 girls.

Pollak lived in Flatbush. Forgot Weiss, right.
We had a fire in ‘76-‘77, not sure of the exact date. Apricot wasn’t our dog, but we weren’t the only ones with a dog.
Who went to Bnos and remembers Morah Avivia Langsam?

Bnos didn’t close down, they moved.
I’m still friends with Gindoff.
