Thank yo...I just discovered your podcast on iTunes. Thank you for recognizing Old St Pat's because I went to the school and the church growing up. I actually lived on the same block as the school and no it wasn't NoLIta back then. It was plain old Little Italy and there wasn't any overpriced botiques or trendy little shops. During the '70s and '80s, it was alot of Chinese and Dominican families in the neighborhood.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5206380617235471991.post-8756001187448563442009-05-26T12:19:51.424-04:002009-05-26T12:19:51.424-04:00Good to see recognition of this beautiful old cath...Good to see recognition of this beautiful old cathedral. I grew up in the 1940's and 50's on Mulberry street and St Pat's was a big part of my familie's life. Priest's use to hold "Stick Ball" games on the church walk (Mulberry St) behind the church rvrry Sunday afternoon, Each neghborhood had it's own team and competition was the talk of the surrounding streets.Good to see the old church not many New Yorker's know it exists,Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
