        The U.S. post service building at 5517 Broadway in Kingsbridge, Bronx  was sold on September 6th, 2017 for $7,000,000. The sale was recorded on September 13th, 2017.  5517 is the address for one of the two buildings.  I do not know if the Post Office will have to move again soon, but I do not see any details about the post office status.

          Dear Mr. Baker,  ??

          I am hoping it makes the October issue of Excelsior!  it is the publication of the Empire State Postal History Society.  I will post it also on this web page if agreed to with the Kingsbridge Historical Society.

                  Those are the ugliest signs and  they are all unnecessary.

                    Is that a smaller Apple Tree just around the back of the Church on the left side ?

                          Dear Dana,

                          Of course, please share.    I have attached a listing of Bronx Bottles ( Beer, Soda, Medical ) that I donated to the Huntington Free Library & Reading Room at 9 Westchester Square Bronx NY 10461.  The letters next to the name was for a guide I put together for the  glass display cabinets.
