Captured Moment: The Gas Station

YS GOLD

This week’s captured moment takes us to a corner in the center of Boro Park where a gas a service station stood for many years, and this is what we see in this 1940’s image. 

The property soon went over to a bank, and it continues to function as such to this day—with offices being built on the upper floors as well as on the surrounding properties that we see here. 

Can our readers identify the property in question?
