Ezra Price Apartments and Mount Hope Development
It looks like Ezra Price was constructed around 1967, while the Mount Hope Development row houses were built from 1964-1970. Probably a subsidized development to make up for losses to downtown's residential core when the Empire State Plaza was built. I'm interested and trying to dig more into details.
