The experience
The modest brick house at 34-56 107th Street where Louis and Lucille Armstrong lived from 1943 until his death in 1971, kept largely as Lucille left it and now a National Historic Landmark. Visitors are walked through the rooms where Armstrong lived, practised and entertained. Across the street the newer Louis Armstrong Center holds the permanent Here to Stay exhibition, the rotating Corona Collection, the shop and a garden. Open Thursday to Saturday only.
The greatest trumpeter of the century stayed in a modest Queens side street, and the house proves it.
