Book Lane in Levittown? That's where my SIL used to live.



Yes! They lived there from about 1951 to 1984.

Re: Do you like the name of your street?

I didn't like the street name of our old house in NY. It sounded like you were trying to say another name but with a brooklyn accent. Our house now is fine - I like it better than some of the other ones in the neighborhood.

I apparently am destined to live on streets with REALLY long names, so they never fit on those address lines on ANY forms. My old address was the best though! People never thought it was real or would laugh hysterically when I'd say it. Fort Salongites or Northportians would know it right away (think food and dairy on a log) Chat Icon

Chat Icon I got it!
I grew up also in the 'northport" area and all the streets were named after Presidents, which is pretty cool.
I like my street name now too.Chat Icon
