☞ REMEMBER: The West Side Boarding Stables

An archival photo from 1941 shows West Side Boarding Stables which were evidently just west of Lenox on 128th Street.  Information listed on the research materials has the location as No. 119 West 128th Street and on the south side.  The address does not quite make sense since the odd numbers on the street are always on the north side and the layout of the current buildings on the site today do not correlate with the old image.  When looking at the south side of 128th Street, things make a little more sense since there used to be a large parking lot which has had a new affordable construction finish up on it in the past year: LINK.  Research photo courtesy NYPL
