⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking NYC : The 'Real' Little Italy (Arthur Avenue, Belmont, Bronx)

I walk through the "Real" Little Italy on Arthur Avenue in Belmont, Bronx from Fordham Road to the D'Auria-Murphy Triangle.

From Wikipedia:
"Arthur Avenue is a street in the Belmont neighborhood of the Bronx, New York City, which serves as the center of the Bronx's "Little Italy". Although the historical and commercial center of Little Italy is Arthur Avenue itself, the area stretches across East 187th Street from Arthur Avenue to Beaumont Avenue, and is similarly lined with delis, bakeries, cafes and various Italian merchants.

The Bronx's Little Italy has an Italian immigrant heritage that dates back to the 1850s. Arthur Avenue and Morris Park are viewed as the Bronx's primary Italian American communities. Other Italian American communities in the Bronx are the middle and upper class neighborhoods of Schuylerville and Country Club. The avenue itself is named for former U.S. president Chester A. Arthur."

Looks a nice neighbourhood. I believe the movie "A Bronx Tale" was set in Belmont

Thanks again, ActionKid, always something interesting going on!

You're pulling at my heart strings...first San Gennaro then Arthur Avenue..I went to high school on Belmont Avenue a couple of blocks away! I may have missed..but have you ever gone to City Island...like a New England fishing village in the Bronx...great seafood restaurants (go hungry)...it's a great time to go. The summers are way to crowded..fall and spring are the best times ..I think you can get a bus from Fordham Road..or Express buses from the City (which would probably be easiest). Thanks for the memories!
