Everyone wants a piece of MAE - - and even Polish radio is willing to massage the facts.
• • Today broadcast journalist program Danusia Szafraniec was doing a close-up on the Polish district of Greenpoint in New York - - once referred to as "Little Warsaw" - - which is a neighborhood in transition. . . .

Apart from affordable rents, the view of the Manhattan skyline from Greenpoint's waterfront is one of the best around. ..." [Source: Polskie Radio SA - - www.polskieradio.pl]
• • TRUTH: Though MAE WEST once resided in Greenpoint (whose borders were drawn differently in the 1890s than today), the entertainer was actually born in Bushwick.
