Guess The Year: Swimming In Brooklyn

guesswherewhen.jpg

[UPDATED BELOW] This may look more Boca than one of the 5 boroughs, but this photo was taken in Brooklyn—can you guess which year, and what neighborhood?

UPDATE: This photo was taken in Bed-Stuy in 1974 (and we're working on getting a little more information—stay tuned).

    I'll be honest, the white person informed my guess.

    Bed Stuy.  Weird.

    I realize it's an extremely large neighborhood, but the areas I've been in don't really have houses like that. 

    Just curious what block that house is on, and what the front looks like!

    The early '60s weren't that ugly. I'll guess 1973, Sheepshead Bay.
