Superb-such great variety! Thanks!

Do or die!!!

Chauncey St.? Where's Ralph Kramden?? (although I think he lived in Bensonhurst)

 

I'm under the impression they lived in sunset park, as it's near the bus station on 5th that was named in Jackie Gleasons honor.

that's possible, although I believe the actual address--328 Chauncey St (?)--is fictional. I still love the Ralph Kramden sculpture outside the Port Authority Bus Terminal (although I think it makes him look too svelte)
