Todays job @ 345 =Humboldt & Siegel the former Home Box of 108 & BN*35.....
Yesterdays job @ 346 =Humboldt & Varet 2 blocks East.

345 was extremely Hot '70 / '71 with severals blocks of bldgs being demoed for NYCHA Borinquen Plaza ......

346 was extremely Hot "58/'59 with several blocks of bldgs being demoed for NYCHA Bushwick Hylan Houses
https://www.google.com/search?q=NYC...IRaWMtOUFidm1UZjFDQXdsWk0YATABUAUYByDE_uf2Bg& an adjoining new School & a new Post Office.....both Boxes remained busy thru the yrs but the demo yrs were extreme Fire wise & both both sites had a multitude of various types of construction ......
also the Bushwick Hylan Houses demo took place at the same time as the 16 acre demo for the Lindsay Park Apartments a few blocks West. ......back then demo workers got premium pay to work demo in a previously Fire damaged bldg ......do the math.

E237 1st due here
Could be, that box sits right on the line between the two. 216 has the straight shot down Montrose and most of the rundowns for 0345 have them first, but it’s a coin flip, depends on who turns out first.
