Description

Dennis Bradley sent in this black and white photo of most of the 1961 graduating class of the Lincoln School located between Willow Avenue (Park Avenue) and Boulevard East. The teacher of the class was Mrs. Taylor. This photo was taken on the steps on the Park Avenue side of the school.According to Time Machine contributor Tom Cheplic, "My understanding is that Lincoln School was located on the property where the 19th Street firehouse is presently between Willow & Park Avenues. I don't know when they knocked the school down but I remember it as a big old empty lot as a kid. During my Little League years, the coaches would occasionally hold practice there when we couldn't get time at the Stadium."James Chieco emailed in this list of names for this photo:First row front from Left to right;James Chieco, Robert Manzari, Dennis Lundy, Dennis Bradley, Irene Trifoglio, Kathleen Rohrbeck, and Laverne Hunt.
