Gus and Marg's house, 1939
and in 2005
Looking down 7th Avenue towards the East River
Percy on his stoop
The stoop has changed much, but not the house,,,
Unlike the rest of the block, Percy's house
still shows it's original stucco.
Though coated with mortar and painted gray,
the stucco beneath is still noticeable.
