Queens: Justice Avenue - 54th Avenue

1923

Justice Ave., west side, north from a point just south of Fifty-fourth Ave. The peaked roof house and that next to it, in the foreground belonged to Mrs. W. Cannon in 1873; the one beyond these two to A. Holt. The last house was that of Mrs. O.M. Mallory. The first three houses in their order had at one time Nos. 50, 36 and 34 respectively. This is a set of two views. The old frame structure and burying grounds of The First Presbyterian Church of Elmhurst may be seen in the background at the left. January 1923. View 2: March 1923. Eugene L. Armbruster Collection.
