The nexus of the universe in 1975



Here's a photo by Dean Lapinel that Dirty Old 1970's New York City posted on Facebook yesterday…

From East First Street at First Avenue, facing northeast, circa 1975. On the corner now is Juicy Lucy and Golden Cadillac (and Boca Chica before)… Now who's up for some bocci?

  1. Very nice. The neighborhood was far cooler before it was trying to hard to be cool.

  2. What's "bocci"? It would be the plural of "bocce," but that doesn't make any sense.

    I am such a snot.
