My Comment about the YouTube montage/video of Our Lady of Mount Carmel

 NOTE:  Click on the link below to view my comment. When I viewed this slideshow, I noticed that many of the photos used to make this montage are MINE! There was no mention of me or my website, www.myitalianharlem.com as a source for these photos. If you go to my other website and view my photo gallery page, you will see these photos and more pics that I took the day of the Procession Mass of Our Lady of Mount Carmel.(July of 2008)

The New York Times-Dec.12, 2004- "FYI"

Short, but Sweet

Q. My family comes from a short street called Pleasant Avenue in East Harlem. Can you tell me where the name came from and when it originated? And why was a nearby street renamed Paladino Avenue?

A. According to "The Street Book" by Henry Moscow, Pleasant Avenue was called Avenue A when the city's street grid plan was adopted in 1811. (It was still Avenue A in an 1875 insurance atlas, reports Sanna Feirstein, author of "Naming New York.") There were two sections of Avenue A, separated by a bend in the East River coastline, and in 1879 the upper part was given its own name, Pleasant Avenue, a nod to its attractive waterfront setting.

Paladino Avenue, which curves around the Wagner Houses, was an extension of Pleasant Avenue until the 1950's, Ms. Feirstein wrote. It was renamed to honor both Anthony C. Paladino, a construction company owner and associate of Gov. Alfred E. Smith's, and the Paladino family, an important one in Italian East Harlem.

Talking about YouTube - Processione di Sant'Antimo

This is the parish church of my paternal ancestors. It is the "Santuario di Sant'Antimo" which is located about 10 miles north of the city of Naples, Italy. My great-grandparents were married in this church on the 25th of November 1892. My grandfather's first name was Antimo, as was his grandfather...
