92 South Street: 1928, Another View

92 South Street: 1928


This was directly to the left of Sloppy Louie's, but it was still part of the building that housed the Fulton Ferry Hotel, aka "The Old Hotel"in 1928.

Up In The Old Hotel: Mazie

Mazie Hotel
Here are the pages in the book that refers to Mazie

Up In The Old Hotel

Up in the New Old Hotel
We mentioned this book and its reference to former Knickerbocker resident Mazie Phillips (or Gordon) before Recently I found a picture of the Venice Theater where she worked. I met a current KVer, Bruno, in Tanahey Park recently who remembered Mazie and remembered how she would let him sneak in to see a movie when he was kid living on Baxter and Roosevelt. That was not too far away from the theater which was located at 209 Park Row. The hotel referred to in the article, the Fulton Ferry Hotel, was right where Sloppy Louie's was on Fulton and South Street.
