Abandoned wood-frame dwellings on Jay Street, between Johnson and Tillary Streets, July 19, 1959.

The buildings were razed ahead of the 1962 construction of the New York City College of Technology's Klitgord Building, which was itself demolished in 2013. A new academic center designed by Perkins Eastman is presently under construction.
