Where is Bliss, Queens. I'm a true Queens boy and I've never heard of it.

There was a Bliss Street in Sunnyside. I'm assuming that's where the picture was taken. I believe it is now called 46th Street.
There used to be a neat sign for "Bliss Street" on the 46th Street station on the number 7 line. I don't know if it's still there.
I remember taking the train home early one morning from 46 and Bliss. There was a tried/drunk man on the station across the tracks slouched on a seat underneath the Bliss Street sign . Above, the sky was just being lit by the raising sun and there was the most unusual cloud cover I had ever seen. But alas, no camera.
For a while I lived off of the 40th street stop on the number 7. In other words, one stop from Bliss. :)

hey, I know that CLUB...I played bagpipes in that back room every night for 7 years, it's the County Cork BP+P Association. Sometimes this Indian guy in a turban would come hang out and watch us play bagpipes.

I live in Sunnyside, off the 46 Street/Bliss Street #7 stop in fact. Roosevelt Avenue all the way; there's a great thrift store between 46th and 47th Streets, and there used to be a nice movie theater years ago.
