Captured Moment: A Stretch of 18th Avenue

By Y. S. Gold

This week’s captured moment takes a glimpse of a vintage image of a busy stretch of 18th Avenue. In the background is a large public school.

Can any of our readers pinpoint the location that this photograph was taken?

Answer to last week’s captured moment: 

The Hashomer Hatza’ir Boro Park clubhouse was located at 4916 16th Avenue, where, for decades now, the Debrecener Beis Medrash has been located. 

The Debrecener rov was one of America’s preeminent poskim, and was supremely dedicated to ruling halachah for residents of Boro Park of yore.
