REMEMBER: TILLIE'S NEON ON LENOX 2020



Harlem Bespoke:  The answer to this week's archival block photo question is of course Lenox and 121st Street where Sottocasa pizzeria currently presides.   We ended finding old photos of the massive Tillie's signage and merged with a current photo of the building to provide the scale of everything.  This would have been a sight to see going down the block and is definitely an amazing way to draw attention to the lower level brownstone shop.  More on the legendary Tillie Fripp who first made southern cuisine famous in Harlem: LINK
