From Esther Barkey, Rocky Point, N.Y.: I remember when we lived at 1469 Fifth Avenue, near Mount Morris Park in New York City. At this time there was no elec trie lights on Fifth Avenue. A man would come every night with a long pole to light the gas street lamps. I also recall a street car drawn by two horses. It crossed from east to west at 110th Strfeet and Fifth Avenue, where Central Park West starts. I remember sitting at the wa­ ter's edge on Fifth Avenue and dipping my feet into it while mother did her shopping at the Italian District, as First Avenue was then known. Today, there are a number of streets and wide avenues where the water once was. Many skyscrapers are there also, including the United Na­ tions building.
