    1. Pictures of lost NYC neighborhoods
    2. The following has been extracted from a posting by Mike ([email protected]) to [email protected]: LaGuardia Community College in Long Island City, Queens has placed online 2,000 of the 20,000 negatives produced by New York City Housing Authority photographers who, beginning in the early 1930's, recorded the vast destruction of poor neighborhoods that made way for hundreds of public housing project Go to: http://www.housingauthority.lagcc.cuny.edu/nycha/ And, then click on "Photographs" along the left-hand side. Thus, those of you who have been unable to obtain a picture of a house or building that no longer exists may find that picture at the above URL. Good luck. I hope this information is useful or, at least, interesting. Regards, Walter Greenspan
