He lived on Knapp Street in Brooklyn. He went to sheepshead bay high school.
I know the area. I went fishing out of Sheepshead Bay many time. It was and still is a nice area. I lived less than 10 minutes away by the Belt Parkway.

My dad knows that area very good. Have you been by the sewer plant? My dad and uncle named it "smelly acres" when they would walk to school. They had to walk by it every day!

That's acually not a sewage plant, it's just New Jersey. That's actually their Capitol Building.

I don't have much recollection of that sewer plant. There was another sewage plant down by the 69th Street pier. We used to fish there and we sold the fish we caught to the Fulton Fish Market. The finest Manhattan restaurants served fish that we caught at the sewage plant.

Welcome! I went to San Francisco and Oakland last August and saw the Padres beat the Giants and A's beat the Rays.
