Sunday, I went driving across Calvalcade going towards 59 and came to Irvington. I decided that since there was ample time, I'd drive by the old Matranga's Italian Restaurant to see what the old building looks like these days. (Mr. Matranga and my father went back a good ways) The problem was that I couldn't find the building. It was on the east side of Irvington, south of Calvalcade about 1/4 mile away from the Burger King. Either the building has been changed dramatically or it has been demo'ed. Nothing seemed to look familiar along that block, with the exception of the BK. Still standing strong after all of these years.

Does anyone know if Matranga's was bulldozed, had one heck of a face lift, or am I just blind? It was one of the finest Italian spots in the City. Winner of numerous Marvin Zindler Blue Ribbons.
