The Polo Grounds and the spur off of the #4......then and its remnant now, next to the new Yankee Stadium.
On the north side of the new stadium
Coming over the bridge with High Bridge in the distance.
just north of the new stadium
a magnificent overview.....you can easily see the trestle bridge over the Harlem River where the EL spur used to be. North of the Polo Grounds the subway car yard is gone and has been replaced by high rises (compare it to the 1st picture).
I'd be interested if anyone can date these B&W pics. I took the color shots the summer of 2009.
