Bensonhurst- Then and Now

It's wonderful to have memories of a happy childhood, living in a neighborhood that was as comfortable as your own home.

But life moves ever forward and change is a constant thing.

I hope to document the place of my past and show the cultural diversity, some of which always existed and some of which are new. I hope the photos alone can capture the changes and also capture the feel of the neighborhood.

I'm always being told that change is a good thing. We shall see.
I'm asking for contributions to this site. Please leave comments about your experience in Bensonhurst, good, bad or indifferent. You will not only be helping me to focus on key points but I think it would be a fun experience.

Thanks..... Terie
