Yes, thanks. Some interesting photos there.
I'm not familiar with the area, but I can appreciate the notion of documenting a community. Particularly one which is rapidly changing.

A long-gone world. At least we have images like these.

I'm familiar with those areas; used to live nearby some 20 years ago.

A lot more built-up these days. And those wonderful docks are history (well, the shipping is...)

Photographs are an invaluable record of history!

Not far from my neck of the woods either, but a bit before my time.
