As long as I've been here in JH (73+) years, the cinema was referred to as the Colony. You can see it on the marquee of the theater. I don't know why it was called Citadel.

At one point there, closer to 37th Ave there was a Fannie Farmer Candy store - was it on the corner? On 82nd there was a Barton's candy store, too.

The company is called Window Fix. That's probably their email address, too.

They were completely professional, cleaned up after themselves and fixed a double hung window which hadn't worked in years.

If I find the card I will repost.

I like the WC the way it is.

It would make a wonderful modernist makeover home. Noisy, yes.

I guess it wasn't landmarked or historiczided.

I hope it is better than dorm food. Columbia must have terrific graduates who've eaten the food and still want to go into the restaurant business.

The food of the country, Colombia, is most likely not like institutional academic food.

They've been there every 4 years (presidential elections) for decades. You might talk to some adults who attended Q69 to see if they've been permanently traumatized.

On April 18th, next Saturday, there will be a fashion shoot, canine costume style. Bring your dog over to Saint Mark's Church - 3350 82nd St, with or without costume and share the fun with your neighbors.

See how Spot and Lassie compare to the others.

Tiaras are fine. Prizes, I hear, will be given out.

I wish YouTube had moderators, but she would be screaming FREE SPEECH at us.
Has anyone heard from her recently?

Since the windows face PS 69, I'm not sure the alcohol/school rule wouldn't apply. Esp. since the kids are in there at lunch time.

I think you mean it is on 37th Avenue. See Google map.

Black Tie is on 80th and the new deli is on 79th St.
