What’s crazy is how none of these buildings exist anymore

Thanks for sharing. Always blows my mind Newark was one of the last places he visited before he was assassinated

I think this street is what MLK Blvd is now. These buildings r too old of an architectural style to be anywhere but rly close to downtown and if u look at the old buildings that still stand on MLK today they look just like this but over half of them r gone and the ones that r still there r so dilapidated.

That could be any of newark's north/south Teen streets. It could also be where Society hill, NJIT or even UMDNJ is today.

Yeah, except MLK/ High Street is a wide Road. If you're view perspective is good, you will quickly realize that road is too narrow to be MLK. The only part of MLK that narrow is in North Newark and that was mostly white Italian and Puerto Rican at the time with Columbus homes having replaced that entire neighborhood.

I think this was one of newark's north south numbered streets from 1st to 22nd Street.
