Vintage Album of Bedford and Dean in 1940s Found

A Crown Heights family recently uncovered a vintage collection of photographs taken in and around the original building of Lubavitcher Yeshiva in the U.S., located on the corner of Bedford and Dean in Brooklyn, during the mid 1940s. The album was shared with us by Lubavitch Archives. Can you identify anyone in the photos?

    As Chabad families near 770 expand. Sooner or later crown heights families will buy homes around the yeshiva building on Bedford and Dean.

    I wish you were right but north crown height’s where it is located is more expensive now than “Jewish” crown heights. Typical homes are $1.4- 1.8million
