New York’s oldest woman still ‘dancing’ after 113th birthday: ‘A beautiful person’

New York City’s oldest woman is still “dancing” months after her 113th birthday.

Louise Jean Signore — born over a century ago in 1912 — recently dropped by the Bartow Center near her Co-Op City apartment in the Bronx to listen to some music like she used to.

“She loved to dance and when she heard the music she began tapping her feet,” her close friend and neighbor, Frances Perkins, told The Post.

“She used to go to hang out, play bingo and do line dancing,” Perkins added, explaining the supercentenarian has slowed down a bit but still requested the trip to hear music at the Bartow Center herself.

Louise celebrated her 113th birthday in July, securing her position as the third oldest American alive.

She holds the spot behind Pennsylvanian Naomi Whitehead, who is 115, and 114-year-old Michigander Bonita Gibson, according to longeviquest.com.

And the oldest person alive — Ethel Caterham, of Britain — is not far off at 116.

Louise’s latest birthday was commemorated with a plaque in the garden of her Co-Op City complex, and she enjoyed a cake and her favorite Italian dinner of sole and pasta with friends and family.

“She’s such a dear friend and I’ll always stay with her. I used to see her around but we became friends when she was 97 years old and we just clicked,” Perkins, 77, said.

“She is a beautiful person. I want her to have peace and happiness and enjoy the years to come,” Perkins added.

The Titanic had been on the bottom of the Atlantic just over three months when Louise was born in late July 1912 to Italian immigrants in Harlem.

She was a 2-year-old when World War I broke out, and the 1929 Wall Street crash that sparked the Great Depression was still five years off when she moved to the Bronx at 12.

Louise was 29 when the US entered World War II in 1941, and watched her brothers go off to fight and come home alive.

She was 44 when Elvis Presley first shocked the world on the Ed Sullivan Show in 1956, and 57 when man first walked on the moon in 1969.

Louise — who worked for the MTA for 39 years — previously told The Post the secret to her success was never getting married or having kids, and always listening to what your body wants you to do.

“You know, I’m systematic. I do the same thing every day at the same time. I don’t change. If I take a nap at 8 o’clock, I don’t change, I take a nap,” she said.

“It’s my body. Nobody tells me what to do. I do what I think is best. It works.”
