A Tall Order, Road Scholars

This unidentified parkway wasn't open yet and already there was congestion, albeit in human form during dedication ceremonies. The cars would come -- and congest -- later. (New York State Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation)

Once again, we present two unidentified photographs from Long Island's past and seek readers' help in identifying them.

One is a photo of the opening of a New York State parkway. The location and the date of the photo are unknown.

The other is an image of one of those ubiquitous symbols of Long Island communities, a water tower. Again, the location and the date of the photo are unknown.
