Imagine a website where you could easily find photographs and other memories from the long history of Stephen Foster Houses/MLK Towers. The flood of possible pleasant memories is boundless and they can be shared by friends and family or leisurely viewed as you would a precious photo album. This is my goal in constructing the new website: Foster Projects/MLK Towers Memories.

Requesting
Presently, I'm requesting photos that were taken from the 1950s - 2000s. The photos that you contribute would only appear on the site after you have given your permission for them to be used. Only send photos that you have the rights to, meaning a photograph that belongs to you or you have taken. Pictures would be used in conjunction with other historical information as I have done with my previous blog entries at Remembering Stephen Foster Projects (https://endlessperceptions.com/remembering-the-towers.html). Under each photo will always appear your name as the owner or photographer. Only positive outlooks will be presented, which all of us will be proud to share and endlessly reminisce about.
Below is an example of a photo very dear to me. It was taken in 1973, by my late brother, from the living room of apartment 2J. The southern side of 70 Lenox is facing 112th Street in the distance. It's impossible not to see the extensive reconstruction that has taken place in the "Little Park" from then to now. And BTW, that's me with my afro with my foot proudly placed on the bench. For Foster

You can place your photographs on Facebook (with your permission to use them) or you can forward them to me directly at [email protected]. If you have any questions, please contact me at this same address. With your help, we will make a special place for our memories. Hope to hear from you soon.
