This is not correct. My family lived here prior to 1902 through the 1960’s. This building was built prior to 1900.

Do you know when it was built? I don't understand why you say it not correct, there's no building year written for this place.

There was an Italian import store named Serafino Piana at the address around 1900.

HI, My great grandfather had a restaurant at 300 Bowery around 1907. Was 300 Bowery always at the same location or has it changed since then? His place was McDonald's Oyster House.
160 CANAL Street, Manhattan
There used to be a store called Leslie Mark NY that said it was located at 162-163 Canal Street in NYC in 1912. I am trying to find any photos or information about it as I had a cabinet that was made from the store and need to have it reproduced to fit a smaller scaled place. But I cannot find any information on the store, building or anything other than the name and address that is etched on the back of the cabinet. Any help would be appreciated. thank you.
241 MULBERRY Street, Manhattan
my grandparents came from Naples. they had a salumeria on the ground floor. my grandmother had 7 children who were born there including my father in 1910. I am guessing they moved in around 1904. those apartments were only one to a floor I believe. man grandmother was quite the business woman. she learned how to speak English and made the fresh sausage and ravioli and mozzarella. her ravioli was the best.
