    1. Re: BRONX ADDRESS
    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: CROTONA Ave is the correct spelling. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/JRB.2ACE/1466.4 Message Board Post: I'm positive that the street you are looking for is CROTONA Avenue in the Bronx, NYC. The 1826 address you mention is between East 175th Street and Fairmont Place, just north of the Cross Bronx Expressway. That area saw a lot of decline in the 1970's and 1980's, and some new development now; I don't know if the original building is still there now, but you could probably get a picture of it from the NYC Archives/Division of Records and Information Services [DORIS] through www.nyc.gov. In the 1930's a WPA project was to photograph buildings in the city and many can be found through this source. Good luck in your research.
