Luigi's Pizza in Park Slope, Brooklyn

Luigi's Pizza in Park Slope, Brooklyn has been in business since 1973. We absolutely love @luigispizzaparkslope 's #signage with the #script #lettering and are huge fans of their fresh mozzarella #pizza ๐Ÿ•which is sprinkled with their home-grown fresh herbs. The 2nd-generation owner Giovanni Lanzo told us, "my father Luigi emigrated here from Calabria where he was a farmer. He opened this #Pizzeria using his family's recipes for the sauce and pizza. He still grows many of the fresh ingredients we use including tomatoes ๐Ÿ… and herbs ๐ŸŒฟ at his farm in Staten Island". Photo from 2006 and full interview with Giovanni appear in our book, "Store Front:The Disappearing Face of New York". #storefront #signgeeks #tv_retrotype #ipulledoverforthis #gas_food_lodging #signcollective #jj_texttypographical #everything_signage #ig_signage #typevstime #fontastic
