Bay Ridge Avenue - David Lind Band

[bayridge108]

awesome ,  Vesuvios the pier , Lowens ... I remember on the wall on the side of Lowens was a graffiti wall mural for Robert Nelson Aka BOSS from 69 troopers which said " Heaven found a Trooper "

[MRKandyman1]

@vanillacokejunky Lentos had the best thin crust pizza now its called yellow hook the people from longs liquor store own it

[MrJimKent]

Excellent! But, LENTO'S gone!? (I'm a frmr Brooklynite - rsd in Bay Ridge through my 20s, then Nyack, N J now...South Dakota. I recall going there during the 90s when we'd come to visit my mother. The restaurant had changed, but the same name. First stopped in there (regularly) when I was a kid - on our way home from summer visits with my father at Manhattan Beach. Great baked ziti and THE BEST pizza (THIN crust). When did the name change - and is it still Italian food??

[Pablo11209]

The artist, producer, and the David Lind Band did a great job portraying vintage BayRidge. Thanks guys! ...for those looking to taste that great thin crust pizza, there's a Lento's on New Dorp lane in S.I.

@dlind36 my last year there was in 2004 and at the time, it was still being used

[drjaydc1]

Born and Raised, went to both 102 and OLA

[ProductFRED]

@drjaydc1 same here. high 5

[lawyernurse08]

Thanks for the video. I am actually relocating to Bay Ridge (from out of state) for a job. Thanks to this video I am pretty psyched for the move!

[Zotic147]

@dlind36 it does, p.s.102 is a great school, and our principal told me aobut that joke to the whole school in 2007 when i graduated :)

[albanymike]

Haha. I went to both P.S. 102 and OLA. Great video. Unbelievable. Its like an acid trip through my childhood.

[nickara78]

I went to P.S.102 from 1957 - 1963. Back then we had a little rhyme: "All the monkeys in the zoo go to PS 102...All the fishes in the bay go to smelly OLA." As first graders back then, we thought that was the coolest poem in the world.

[trainfreaksmama]

I remember it as:

All the monkeys in the zoo go to P.S. 102

All the fishes in the bay go to LOVELY O.L.A.

At any rate, I guess it's no longer floating around, because O.L.A. is now Angel's Academy, and that's a whole different rhyme!

[ProductFRED]

@nickara78 haha. I transfered out of OLA during the beginning of 4th grade (2001) and transferred to PS 102. Best decision ever. The teachers in OLA were HORRIBLE, aside for one or two. I live right across the street from OLA and I was never on time XD

[annikee59]

"All the monkeys in the zoo go to PS 102; all the fishes in the bay go to stinky OLA!" LMAO!

[ARecycledBox]

[LANCER80215]

Loved ur song. Lived on Bay RIdge Ave of Ft Hamlton Pkwy. I remember 69 St pier was the Bklyn-SI Ferry terminal.

[ecina1]

Bay Ridge is really a great neighborhood!

[margotttx3]

[vanillacokejunky]

Awesome! I live here ;)

The vid shows Lentos, which is no longer there. Well the restaurant is still there but it was renamed

[dlind36]

Yeah, it's meant to be kind of retro, vintage Bay Ridge.

[kanexperience]

It wouldn't be Bay Ridge Avenue w/o the 69th Street Pier! mBop!

[xxmirchinxx]

[seaverhp]

Very well done, dlind. Only thing that could improve this--having ME in the video...!! All kidding aside...great job....!!

[dlind36]

Thanks, M.B. We'll edit you in for the improved MTV version.

[gratefuldan54]

The picture of an elderly man on bench looks familiar. Can you tell me where it was taken? May have been my father.

[dlind36]

None of the people in the video (except the singer) are based on real-life characters. Any resemblance is pure coincidence.

[spotlightsean]

Awesome! Great specifics and a catchy beat. I'm subscribing!
