That school in the middle is actually the Art-Deco style PS No. 37 Futures Academy, an elementary school constructed in 1934.
City Honors is seen in this view toward the Northeast, in front of the Masten Avenue Armory. The City Honors building was constructed in 1912, and prior to its use as City Honors in 1980 was called Fosdick-Masten Vocational School for girls offering courses in business, foods, clothing, beauty culture and practical nursing.
