Description

This image shows a pair of white two story houses, both damaged by fallen trees. Some trees still lean on the houses, and the roots of other trees are completely visible. This photo was presumably taken after the hurricane of 1938. This photograph was either taken or collected by Amagansett historian and librarian Carleton Kelsey.
