This is more of a figure than a face but which downtown building holds this little guy?
I know this new feature was supposed to Mystery Faces but for this week, it will not be a mystery face but a myster-Y! This Capital “Y” is one of several letters on the pilaster capital of a lower east side building. This could be a difficult mystery so more clues will be forthcoming if nobody guesses in the meantime!
This mystery view looks north at some older apartment buildings as they looked in the early 1960s shortly before they were demolished as part of an urban renewal project. They were replaced with apartment buildings and this was located somewhere on the edge of downtown. Are there any guesses as to where the mystery photo was?
