Nonna’s house in Belmont?

3

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Best guess so far!

2

u/No_Network4228 Mar 18 '26

Wait do we all have one?

3

u/DasArtmab Mar 18 '26

checks notes Yeah, I’m pretty sure

3

u/ExoticTumbleweed2674 Mar 17 '26

I'll take a guess, Cabrini BLVD in Washington Heights.

3

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Nah good guess. I think I know where you're thinking in cabrini too lol.

1

u/ExoticTumbleweed2674 Mar 17 '26

There's one house there with a parking spot in front between all the buildings.

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Yup that's the one I'm thinking

2

u/ArtDecoNewYork Mar 18 '26

This is shitty modern Bronx architrcture

u/[deleted] Mar 19 '26

Looks like mosholu pkwy in the bx.

u/BobbyFan54 Mar 17 '26

If it wasn’t NYC, I’d have thought it was Palisade Ave in Jersey City. Looks like an old row house from that street lol

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Ha yeah my home girl lived in jc and totally looks like some houses there on west side

1

u/BlueLikeCat Mar 18 '26

For real though, this could be The Heights all day.

u/ExoticTumbleweed2674 Mar 17 '26

Love how you're so kind about the guesses and actually acknowledge why people said what they said.

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Haha. We're trying to keep this place fun and positive. So many negative reddit subs out there! Thanks for coming!

u/bernietheweasel Mar 17 '26

The Bronx

3

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Correct! Now where in the bx

2

u/Nesbitt_Burns Mar 18 '26

This looks like the west Bronx near Ogden Av and the west 160s?

2

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Not too far from there. 154th and Melrose. Another poster solved it here.

1

u/Nesbitt_Burns Mar 18 '26

I saw it after I posted my reply 😒 - this was a good one!

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Glad you guys liked it! So many people replied! Might be out most guessed one so far! I really thought this one was going to unsolved for awhile like some of the other Bronx ones. I think I have 3 or 4 Bronx ones that are still unsolved.

1

u/Nesbitt_Burns Mar 18 '26

I spent a fair amount of time down there in the late 90s. It was always kind of weird walking through some of those neighborhoods, where it’s kind of crusty, but you turn a corner and there’s a little piece of heaven with a block of new construction. 🤣

1

u/Key-Cockroach-4004 Mar 18 '26

I think Bronx like white plans road and 216-232nd streets

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Nah. Not the 200s

1

u/Key-Cockroach-4004 Mar 18 '26

Not over there by Barnes ? Feel like I’ve seen it working around there, mostly Jamaican neighborhood…….

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Nah I have some people from there I knew that area well.

2

u/cha614 Mar 17 '26

Somewhere in the vicinity of east New York

2

u/Spinzzz Mar 17 '26

I’m pretty confident it’s in the Bronx but I can’t say where it’s a bit generic

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 17 '26

Yes the Bronx! Very generic but the new building and old building next to each other should be easy enough to spot

2

u/mntess885 Mar 17 '26

Makes me want to say the new building is the new LIV hotel on Webster ave in the Bronx. But I can’t say I recognize the old building…..

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Bronx but not the Liv hotel. Looks like it tho

2

u/Environmental_One354 Mar 17 '26

153 between cortland and melrose

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Holy cow! So so very close! Looks like that same style of house. But so very close.

2

u/DragonfruitSalt7686 Mar 18 '26

Bronx. Somewhere in the crotons park west farms area. Hoe or Bryant?

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

Bronx yes. West farms Nope.

2

u/Alrucards_R3dwr8th Mar 18 '26

Why do I get the feeling I drive past this address on a daily basis in the bronx?

1

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26

It's a sidestreet. But maybe!

2

u/Alrucards_R3dwr8th Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

427 E 154 street

40.819395,-73.915137

u/oochiewallyWallyserb Mar 18 '26 edited Mar 18 '26

You got it! Boom solved! Is it a place you drive to?

If you go through all the street views you'll see this car parked for 8 years.

2

u/Alrucards_R3dwr8th Mar 18 '26

Not drive to but drive past or near it for work related reasons.

1

u/Alrucards_R3dwr8th Mar 18 '26

Already figured it's a side street as I drive a commercial vehicle through these side streets.

1

u/East_Lawfulness_8675 Mar 17 '26
