Lousy building, some good people live there, though. When I was a kid in the mid 80's, my ma used to bring me down from 238th to the playground on the NW corner of 234 and Bailey. Many a skinned knee back then...

Neighborhood started a downward spiral around 72-73. Creeped up along Sedgwick and then spread sideways down to Bailey and over to Jerome. We moved out of there in 75 and went up to Rockland.
 
That’s another one of those unique west Bronx buildings built into the side of a hill. This one has entrances on Bailey and higher up on Ft. Independence. Looks like a 150-200 foot stretch just to the exterior standpipe connection
