flickr: Deserted Roosevelt Island Structures


The above image links to two flickr photo sets of buildings abandoned on Roosevelt Island prior to their demolition. The first being Sacred Heart a Catholic Church and second the old Central Nurses' Residence that sat where Riverwalk (465 and 475 Main) now stands. [Correction made].

  3. Sacred Heart was in the vicinity of the current FDNY Special Operations Command firehouse near the Gardens. I am posting a map to this post now.
