To continue our barbecue-filled celebration for the Labor` Day weekend, we are highlighting William’s BAR-B-Q on Broadway in the Upper West Side of Manhattan.

This barbecue spot, was founded in 1952 by Harry Williams and became well known for its barbecue chicken 🍗 served hot off the spit. 

Many famous customers frequented the small take away joint, including Liza Minnelli, Harry Belafonte, Wade Boggs, Isaac Stern and Itzhak Perlman before it closed in 2005. 

Our 35 mm film photo taken in 2004 is an outside from our book “Store Front: The Disappearing Face of New York”.
