Thanks for posting this. I used to live on 33rd street, years ago. I remember Leisure video, and still eat at Romanos to this day. If you have any other old Astoria videos please post em :-)

Memories buddy memories no web, no cell,no facebook, no EU,The USSR was around, US was alone and mighty, no globalist sellouts then ,it was the School yard,stickball,touch Football,and Girls,We were all close growing up RIP Nicky theos mazi sou
This is so fascinating, I used to live on 33rd street next to St. Catherine’s church. I was born in New York and we my family left back to Greece in 1984, I was just a toddler. I have some memories of Astoria but mainly it is photographs and my parents telling nostalgic stories of those times. This video is just something amazing. Can’t wait to share it with my mother, she might even recognize some of the people
Does anyone have picture of crystal gardens? It was on 24th ave from 27th st through 29th street. I have yet to see an image of it. I’ve heard about it my entire life (46 years) of how beautiful it was. If anyone has an image, please contact me.
Me and my family still dine at Romanos Pizza. It was such a pleasure to see Romanos the way it looked back in the 80s. Thank you for posting!

What Month and Date was it in 1984? Was it April 1984? I think it was blizzard in April 1984.
