Thanks for those bits of nostalgia David!  What a good looking building the Third Avenue had, and I love that car parked in front!

A question, in Photo 4 what's that big building on the hill in the background?  It looks sort of familiar but I can't place it.

Thanks for sharing this holiday gift from back in the golden age of trolleys!

Large building on right:   Probably The Bronx's Veterans Hospital

Left low building:   School or schools

Both across the Harlem River in The Bronx

Opposite sides probably  on Umiversity Avenue

Thanks David!  That large building does have a "hospital" look to it.

A fellw veteran who used the sevkces of the hospital has inforned me that:

The former school buildings are now part of the hospital complex.

The complex is or was known as Kingsbridge Veterans Hospital.

The complex has recently been modernized.
