Would you go to a restaurant that displayed this sign? A clothing store? A dental office? What about a dry cleaner? That’s where I saw this sign. If it falls down, the store owners might write the hours on the wall with an El Marko.

Tony Manero and Stephanie are back on the dance floor! Bell bottoms, platform shoes, 2001 Odyssey … it’s Saturday Night Fever. Tony’s right arm is itching to point skyward, and she is looking away, feigning immunity to his rough charm. Time has been crueler to Stephanie. Those pants look like jodphurs, or maybe the calzones caught up to her once the disco pace slowed down.
Pacheco dry cleaner, at Fifth Avenue just past 15th St., is about three miles from where the real-life disco stood. Torn down long ago, the neighborhood has become Brooklyn’s Chinatown. (Learn more about where Saturday Night Fever at this movie location website.)
