13 жыл бұрынHistorian Joel Schwartz takes us on a guided tour of New York City before the NYC Housing Authority razed large swaths of run-down neighborhoods to build public housing projects. These arresting photographs of a long-vanished New York City owe their astonishing detail to the 4x5 inch negatives captured by the NYCHA photographers. Photos are from the NYC Housing Authority collection housed at the La Guardia and Wagner Archives.

Some of these housing projects are located in prime locations within the city such as those located in The Lower East Side.

I think the title should be "how public housing deformed New York"

If Robert Moses would have successfully transformed new york to his ideal world, you would have houston (a city which heavily relies on cars and lacks ambiance bc of that. It is also one of the most environmentally destructive cities in the U.S. Houston cleared acres and acres of forest to make way for toll roads and streets for cars to drive on )

Great photos! The aritists dont get credits , some of theses photos are worthy of photogrophy awards! cool video .What happens to neighborhoods after ? When did the heroin and cocaine trades rule Harlem. All over America these "projects" failed horror ably Detroit ,St Louis , Rockaway Beach, They become over-run by drug dealing gangs and the police refused to go into these places without swat teams.

@im1greatman if NY did that people would be homeless. NY has 8 million people. and anyways half of Chicago's public housing buildings were abandoned.
