On two recent trips to New York City, we visited Little Italy with our Italian kinfolk from New Jersey. A subsequent week-long stay highlighted memories from 1939 to 2014, a 75-year period that demonstrates what things remain the same and what things are refreshed on every visit. These highlights deal primarily with landmarks which are permanent.
