560-State-0909.jpgNew York Magazine reports (and Curbed picks up) that the new single off Jay-Z’s current album references his former “Stash Box” at 560 State Street.” I used to cop in Harlem, all of my Dominicanos. Right there up on Broadway, pull me back to that McDonald’s. Took it to my stash box, 560 State Street. Catch me in the kitchen like a Simmons with them pastries.” The magazine goes on to say that 560 State would be an ideal location for a stash box, given its proximity to the intersection of Flatbush, Atlantic and Fourth Avenue. It sounds like Jay may be exaggerating the extent of his activities at his former address, however. One neighbor remembers him as a cordial and respectful neighbor. GMAP
