June 24, 2007 at 3:15 am #46891ErickWeinstetterMemberHey Tom good to see you even if you didnt mention me. Who was that guy I used to hang with from Philly? He lived just off Broad Street, think he was like 17I. I rode downtown with him once gave him a ride home maybe once.
I think he had a sister that used to go with him, Italian guy.June 24, 2007 at 3:15 am #46998ErickWeinstetterMemberHey Tom good to see you even if you didnt mention me.

June 25, 2007 at 1:14 am #46907tommydoneMemberyou talking about frank pinto?
June 25, 2007 at 1:14 am #47014tommydoneMemberyou talking about frank pinto?
July 2, 2007 at 7:54 am #47347ErickWeinstetterMemberYeah Frank sounds right but not Pinto but then again it was 50 years ago.
I can still picture his row home, if you were coming from Broad it was on the right.July 3, 2007 at 3:17 am #47371tommydoneMemberthat wasnt frank then,he lived around 28th street.I am pulling a blank on that.
July 3, 2007 at 6:51 am #47372ErickWeinstetterMemberIt coulda been 25th. Looking at Google Im guessing this rider (Frank sounds right though) lived around 12th or 13th and maybe it was Latona.

The only other street that sounds familiar is Cantrell a few blocks south.
It was a small one way street like those if I remember right.
