Local history

We had a farewell dinner for one of our neighbors last night. After twenty-odd years in our complex, twelve on the floor on which we live, B is moving to be closer to family in Connecticut. J, the other guest, has lived in the apartment between B's and ours since 1965, and actually first moved to the complex when it was new in 1957! She showed us a book about the history of Manhattanville, which included this picture from the site where our complex stands - Fort Laight, at back right.
