Pictures of the Day – A walk through Melrose

Was I walked to and from my parents’ place today on Morris Avenue, I decided to snap a few pictures of the area, particularly of some of my favorite buildings.

Facing west on East 149th Street (corner of Morris Avenue)


House on East 151st Street


Apartment building on Courtlandt Avenue @ East 152nd Street


The crown jewel of East 151st Street (the stretch of East 151st Street between Morris and Courtlandt Avenues has some of the best kept homes and buildings and throughout the worse years in the area, sanity always seemed to have kept hold of this block.)


Side view of 614 Courtlandt Avenue (which is for sale at $800,000…and is the LAST landmark building for sale in Melrose)


Our Lady of Pity Roman Catholic Church – Closed as of 2007 when the Archdiocese of NY closed and merged parishes in an attempt to save money.

Another building on East 151st Street…


…and another…


…and yet another!
