Soundview
Memories
It is funny but it
seems like when you once lived in the Bronx it is always home. I
moved to Queens 40 years ago but my heart is home in the Bronx.
I
lived in the Soundview section of the Bronx. I grew up on Boynton
Ave off Westchester. The 6 train was down the block from us as
was the old Ward Theater. I went back about a year ago and found
it to be a one price store.
No
matter what changes have been made it is still home. James Monroe
High School was just up the block and PS 77 was on Ward Ave. I
also attended JHS 123 which was open only 1 year at that time.
I
remember once a year the carnival came and we all would spend the day.
It was held in an empty lot not far from Soundview Ave.
I
hope this brought back some happy thoughts for some of you.
