Carlos, 160 W 66th





Carlos was born in Peru. He came to New York in 1982.
First he did various cleaning jobs. He then learned how to make pizzas and worked as a Pizzaiolo for 10 years.

He has been a doorman for 18 years, but that is not all. Being a Deacon in a Catholic Church, he spends all his spare time helping out his community.
During all those years in New York, the thing that bothered him the most was feeling discriminated for his origins.

He is retiring next year. Even though he enjoys living in the Bronx, he will move to Costa Rica. Where his wife is waiting for him.
