Did you know that between 1939 and 1941 the NYC Tax Administration and the Works Progress Administration collaborated to take photographs of nearly every building in all 5 boroughs of New York City? And that you can see these photos today thanks to NYC Municipal archiving? This is, obviously, amazing for hundreds of reasons. For the purposes of this post, it's fantastic because this is a very real address:

And when I put that address into the photo locator map, I get this:

Going from there, we can walk around the surrounding blocks via photographs. And if we assume that Steve and Bucky's pre-war apartment was fairly close to the Barnes', then these photos from 1939 to 1941 are a historically accurate trip to their neighborhood.

So, let's explore some pre-war Brooklyn. For your fic inspiration needs, your feelings, the general Stucky vibes, or just because:

160 State Street, bigger and without the map.

(If you ever feel like making the details of a fic incredibly historically accurate, there are so many real businesses to choose from in these photos.)

Like I said, there are pictures of nearly every building. This is just a small collection of the images I grabbed from the immediate blocks around 160 State. You can walk around the neighborhood in more detail, or anywhere else in 1939-1941 New York you want on the map I used.

#SteveBucky #Stucky #MCU #I also just (unsurprisingly) really enjoy all of these photos #truly I am showing a lot of restraint by limiting how many of them I put in this post #this can very much also go in my Vintage New York tag

Mina, 26

“I’m wearing a hat from Victor on the corner of Guernsey St, a Gap button up (that I sliced up before leaving the house), some hand dyed 559 Levi’s, a bunch of necklaces around my hips, and some thrifted combat boots. Lately, I’ve been folding them in half snd tying them down.”
