Queens: 81st Street - 19th Avenue

81st Street (foreground hardly shown) west side, between Nineteenth (right foreground, not shown) and Twenty-first Avenues (left foreground, not shown). In the background beyond the bend in the road is the Riker house, a portion of which lies in 80th Street, which when constructed will extend north and south beyond the swimming pool at the left. Views two and three show an old road (tracks thereon) which extends from 81st Street to almost 80th Street. The area in the foreground is a part of the North Beach Amusement Park.
