Scope and Contents

This series consists of 98 black-and-white photographs taken by Edward B. Watson between 1927 and 1957. The photographs, all black-and-white photographic prints, were taken in various locations in Brooklyn and primarily document buildings with turrets. It is unclear if the photographer also intended to capture lamp posts, street car cables, and street car rails, but they are also represented in the photographs.
