Broome Street no. 512-514, Manhattan.

    The 2000 edition of Nathan Silver's Lost New York captions Abbott's picture as follows: "HOUSES WITH PITCHED ROOFS. 'A great number of excellent private dwellings are built of red painted brick, which gives them a peculiary neat and clean appearance,' a London visitor to New York wrote in 1819. The characteristic house was two or three stories high, sometimes twenty-five feet wide, two rooms deep, with a pitched roof and delicate dormers. These, built long before the Civil War, were at 512-514 Broome Street, and are now gone." Perhaps they aren't gone, though. Doulgas Levere's 1998 rephotograph of the same site shows two small buildings in the same location, albeit with the dormers--and in 512's case, a whole story--removed. Google Maps shows yet another wrinkle: 514 had a story added since 1998.

Unemployed and huts, West Houston -- Mercer St., Manhattan.

    Notice the man sitting is shaven and dressed rather well (for 2008 standards). Even the homeless made an effort back in the early 20th century!

    This would be a small Hooverville. Do you have any photos of the large Hooverville in Central Park?

    I find it fascinating that these people keep their art, and decorate their outside with the surplus.
