Before and after images of the destruction of the old Post Office on 87th Street and 4th Avenue in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn.
Top of the building is now flattened. You can still see some of the ornate terra cotta work below. The work has been well hidden by scaffolding.

Rubble from the facade of the old Fort Hamilton Post Office building.
