We know Sunset Park’s 8th Avenue today as Brooklyn's Chinatown - an incredible place to eat - but a hundred years ago this part of town was not only considered Bay Ridge, it was almost entirely Scandinavian - particularly Norwegian. Back then, this stretch was called Lapskaus Boulevard after the hearty and filling stew eaten by their people.
The Scandinavians once dominated this place but to look at it today you would hardly know it. What happened to them? Where did they all go? What gets lost, and what remains, when an entire community - its people, its restaurants and public hangouts - its way of life - just completely vanishes from the face of the Earth?
