Madison Avenue at South Pearl 1978

|

I couldn't figure out where this picture was originally but it's the location of the abandoned McDonald's Fat Frier in the South End in the two decade period when this land sat vacant after Rocky's wrecking block tore down much of the South End.

Bulldozing the Pine Bush 1978

|

I think this was near the pig farm at Crossgates, leveling off part of Butterfly Hill or maybe it was the SEFCU site which is now the Discovery Center. From John Wolcott's collection in 1978.
