Manhattan: Riverside Park - 72nd Street (West).

Riverside Park, north from West 72nd Street, showing the New York Central Railroad tracks, prior to enclosure as a portion of the West Side Improvement Project. Note the wooden forms in position and the concrete retaining walls resulting from same. In 1937 a top will be installed and the extension of the Henry Hudson Parkway run on same. This, in conjunction with major landscaping jobs will radically change the appearance. View 1: July 11, 1931 View 2: April 3, 1932 View 3: June 1, 1934 P. L. Sperr
