Manhattan: High Bridge Park - [173rd Street - 181st Street (West).]

Highbridge Park: A view northward of the southern extremity of this rocky area that parallels the Harlem River. The western boundary of same is Edgecombe Ave., which appears on the left. The water tower, reservoir and High Bridge are in the center of this elongated rocky slope, at the foot of West 173rd Street. North of the latter point and at the foot of West 181st Street is the Washington Bridge. These structures connect Manhattan with the Washington Heights section of the Bronx. This is a set of three views, more or less similar. April 8, 1934. P. L. Sperr.
