Manhattan: Monroe Street - Jackson Street

Monroe Street, east from Jackson Street, showing a portion of the demolition for the Vladeck City Houses. Four identical structures are to be erected here; two on either side of Monroe Street, at the corners shown. Behind the photographer will rise the companion USHA project, Vladeck Houses. The latter, a government development and the larger of the two, is not to be confused with the forme.
