Rooftops on the Lower East Side, Manhattan

Before the FDR Drive and East River Park A very rare view of the east side of Manhattan in 1937, looking north from Delancey Street at what is today's East River Park and the FDR Drive. The photo shows the city's waterfront in the midst of a transformation, with 1.5 miles of piers, warehouses, and docks demolished to build the new park on landfill, creating the largest open green space on the Lower East Side. The park opened two years later in 1939 and was a typical Robert Moses highway and park hugging the city's waterfront. #eastriverpark #delanceystreet #delancey #lowereastside #eastvillage #nychistory #robertmoses #powerbroker #urbanplanning #fdrdrive #eastriver #nyc #manhattan #kipsbay #murrayhill #twobridges #houstonstreet #nycurbanism (at East River Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxs05I_HH2O/?igshid=39vyfqvkmhw2

You expected to be sad in the fall. Part of you died each year when the leaves fell from the trees and their branches were bare against the wind and the cold, wintery light. But you knew there would always be the spring, as you knew the river would flow again after it was frozen. When the cold rains kept on and killed the spring, it was as though a young person died for no reason. **** @anna_iaryn @qmodels h/m by @alfredlester from @utopianyc styling by @mejianyc #patrickxiong #nyc #newyork #2bridges #twobridges #annaiaryn #qmodels #q #editorial #film #vision #print #curate #icon #tbt (at SoHo, Manhattan)
