The AAA club used to print excellent NYC maps and would show street changes. I have an old one form the 1960's so it wouldn't have later changes if any. I lived in the Bronx in the 1930's and early 1940's. Where I lived was torn down for a housing project after WW2. The area was Mott Haven, later became Fort Apache.
