Christopher Street Pier
1

An old abandoned Pier in Manhattan, which connects with both West 10th Street and back then, the old elevated West Side Highway. Today it is full renovated and the West Side Highway is no longer elevated.

Looking South at the then new World Trade Center. The couple had just learned of a tragedy in the family. June 21, 1978.
