Louis Armstrong in NYC

The legendary jazz musician Louis Armstrong lived in NYC for decades and can you guess where?

Somewhere in Manhattan? Harlem, perhaps, the African-American capital of the USA and a cultural mecca? No.

Brooklyn, that forever funky borough? Nope.

Maybe he had a nice house in Riverdale, up in the Bronx? Wrong again.

Actually he lived in Corona, Queens and you can visit his house there. How cool is that -- and how un-touristy?

Louis Armstrong loved to smoke marijuana and someday we may have legal weed here in NYC. If so, I hope the Louis Armstrong house and museum will open a dispensary in tribute to the great man.
