100 years ago these small brick buildings were built along Eighth Avenue, and few remain today in the historic areas of lower Eighth through Tenth Avenues. It takes only two days to knock them down, and surely the bank that will replace them will have zero historic character or lasting value. New York of yesteryear is rapidly fading as rampant construction and high property values make underused lots highly valuable.
