Manhattan: Houston Street (East) - Norfolk Street

East Houston Street (running from right to left), north side, west from Norfolk Street (right), to and including Ave A (where street car is seen), showing a 4-story house and its 2-story adjunct which together bear the No. 2-4 Ave A. Also shown, across the 2-story house are Nos. 244 to 248 East Houston Street, adjoining and east of the N.E. corner of Ave. A. The clearance seen in the foreground is on the south side of the street between Norfolk and Essex (left) Streets and was created as a result of the demolition of P.S. No. 13. (Essex Street southward from East Houston Street is actually a continuation of Ave. A). May 8, 1934. P. L. Sperr.
