The Gut

The Gut

The federal government didn't have much good to be said about the D4/D5 redlined neighborhood known as the "The Gut" of Albany in 1930s.

This area deserves to be classified  as a slum neighborhood. Many former two family houses are now used for  three families by use of the basement as a separate unit.

Favorable Influences: All city facilities and adjacence to center of city and industry.

Detrimental Influences: Age  and obsolescence. Close to railroad and Hudson River- cellars are  flooded with high water. Green Street is known as the "Red Light"  district."
