The Marcy Houses are too far away in the distance to be Nostand Ave or Tompkins Ave. The train is leaving Franklin Ave and headed towards Downtown Brooklyn. The Mobil gas station is now a Citgo.The Lurkers'Guild Classon and DeKalb albeit 39 years ago.(sniff,sniff) |

It looks like it was a Catholic school because there are crosses around the top of the building. Unless it became a public school at some point.Or should I say pvblic school? |

Marcy Houses in the background on the left,Sumner Houses on the right. Classon Ave is the cross-street at Myrtle Ave.Just out of the frame is the historic Renken Dairy on the southwest corner of Classon Ave. Not sure of the preservation statis. After doing a little research I found out, that the founder of the dairy was one of the founder of my Lutheran Church, on Bedford and DeKalb Avenues. The Lurkers'Guild |
