Remembering Lillian Giandolfo and her extensive work in the Greenpoint community
Celebrating Lillian’s Life and 89th Birthday
40th Anniversary of Greenpoint’s Historical Postcard
It has taken me a very long time to go through my mother’s work. Her love of community and family was felt by all around her. Her passion for putting Greenpoint on the map made her a staple in the community.
On February 13th, 1980 my mother ordered 3,000 postcards to be a part of her on going civic pride of Greenpoint. She received them on February 29th, 1980 and presented them to me on my 17th birthday. I cannot believe it has been 40 years.
Happy 40th Anniversary!!
We will be adding additional photos and articles as well as releasing 5 additional postcards later this year!

If ever anyone had a love affair with her neighborhood, Lillian Giandolfo has one with Greenpoint.
Folks in the area call her “Greenpoint’s public relations person”. Small wonder, she’s lived there for most of her 47 years and she never stops boosting the place.
