This picture captures juxtaposition in the area of Downtown Brooklyn. The building on the right is The Dime Savings Bank of Brooklyn, built in 1859. The former bank is surrounded by modern, high rise residential buildings along with the City Point Mall. The Roman architecture clearly sets the Dime apart from the other buildings, with the pillars and the roof. The other buildings are far more geometrical, and the height and colors make them stand out.
This is located at Albee Square, on Fulton Street. To get here you’ll have to get off the Jay St-Metrotech A/C/F station at Jay Street and Fulton Street and make a left on Fulton. After that you walk straight, and Albee Square will be on your left.
