Thanks, Boris -

Wow -I took  an insider sign shot :)    I don't think the chicken store 
lasted too much longer after I took
this photo by the way....  The store next to it lasted longer... though 
it moved a few doors down I think.

When I first lived one street over in 1959-60, The famous kosher dairy 
restaurants, Ratners and  Rappaport's
were still here as well as the famous Yiddish theatre, the Andersen on 
2nd ave....  At the same time, there
was a strong Italian population, too, with a great pork store (sorry, 
boris :) ) around the corner and a block
down on 1st ave -- and a real spaghetti factory which was one of the 
first things to go to be replaced by
an enormous and ugly brick building complex.
