Manhattan: 27th Street (West) - 9th Avenue

Chelsea Park: A partial view of the southerly side of same as photographed on West 27th Street. This open area occupies the block of 27th -28th Streets between 9th & 10th Avenues and has P. S. No. 33 therein. The extra-curricular activities are under the auspices of the Hudson Guild. A free milk station operated by them is shown to the rear of the school structure. The spire of the P. E. Church of the Holy Apostles appears across the trees at the east end and though seeming to be amid same is not. This is on the opposite side of 9th Avenue (El. line there upon), at the S. E. corner of 28th Street. Beyond is the towering Empire State Building. P. L. Sperr July 21, 1934 Views 1, 2, 3
