Highbridge Park, Manhattan, January 1934, situated between Amsterdam Avenue and the East River. The High Bridge over the Harlem River is seen at right with its new wider metal arch. To the left of the bridge are the High Bridge Reservoir and Tower at about West 173rd Street. This is how the park looked before the New Deal started work some months later.
