Journey back in time, won't you, to 1934, when Avenue A was the site of the city's first housing project and not the bustling strip of bars and brunch spots we know it to be today. Well, actually, the "First Houses" (original rents: $6.05 per room) are still standing and in use today, 74 years after Eleanor Roosevelt dedicated them. [Ephemeral New York]
