We will explore The South Bronx during different eras, through photographs, drawings etc. We hope this collection will entertain others as much as it has us in creating it. We originally started this page to share our history and as a way for us to remember our earlier days of growing up in The South Bronx. We did it more for our love of where we grew up and because we have grown to love the histo

rical value of where we came from. We’ve always been a fan of black and white photos and the medium itself. We never could have imagined so many people would also enjoy the photographs and like our page. We now have thousands of photos found throughout the internet and shared with us by our fans. We have, in a sense, become a living archive, filled with people sharing their unique knowledge, history and stories about their lives, along with the curious and those who want to learn more about our history during the years when The Bronx was burning and how we survived it all. This is exactly what we had envisioned becoming. Hopefully people can use it as a basis for knowledge, to learn from and enjoy the historical as well as artistic value of the collection. This is all we wished for. We do not own the photos we only share them. Please enjoy the page, thank you for your participation and continued support.

FROM THE BRONX:
Colagero L. “Chazz” Palminteri

Palminteri was born on May 15, 1952, in the Bronx, the son of Rose, a homemaker, and Lorenzo Palminteri, a bus driver.

He was raised in the Belmont neighborhood of the Bronx. Palminteri is of Sicilian origin, his grandparents, Calogero Palminteri and Rosa Bonfante, married in 1908, immigrated to the United States in 1910 from Menfi in the province of Agrigento, Sicily.

He struggled to become an actor, splitting his time between acting in off-Broadway plays and moonlighting as a bouncer, alongside Dolph Lundgren.

His big break came in 1988 with the premiere of his autobiographical one-man show, A Bronx Tale, which he wrote after being fired from a club for refusing entry to talent agent Swifty Lazar; Robert De Niro later developed and directed a film version (1993).
