Posted by JOE @ NYCMTS - NYCTMG on Sat Apr 29 07:29:23 2017, in response to Re: East 180th Street (4/10/17), posted by Olog-hai on Sat Apr 29 02:30:48 2017. (Comment from Olog-hai -...." Those are some really ugly apartment buildings..." Hello Olog --- I have to agree totally -- very plain jane no frills facades -- see photos Below --- just plain f'ugly !! View BELOW in 2015 to south side of Lebanon St to new buildings built directly on the former NYW&B Railway 4 track steel trestle viaduct R-o-W;  And turning around 180 degrees, here BELOW is the scenic bucolic view in 2015, of the (I expect?) high rent (??) paying tenants get looking out their front windows north across Lebanon Street to the rusted chopped-off short stump end remains of the massive semi-denuded steel trestle work of the once grand NYW&B Railway and its long Trestle. I hope these aren't, heh, "condos" ....  NOTE the small low horizontal track girder "extension girders" seen at top left of photo, as ATTACHED on top of each of the two original huge track girders of the ex-NYW&B former S/B Local Track (as I mentioned in another message) so as to keep the new track installed upon them level so as to mate evenly with the existing former S/B Local track still on the original concrete roadbed-deck within the former NYW&B E.180th St Station ! regards - Joe F |
