This image features two distinct black-and-white photographs mounted side by side on a gray background. Both images depict scenes related to the almshouses of Schenectady County, New York.

1. Left Image: A prominent brick building labeled "Women's Building." It has two stories and is built in a symmetrical style with tall rectangular windows. The entrance includes a small portico with stairs leading up to the door. Behind the building, there is a structure with arches connecting different sections, possibly a covered walkway or corridor.

2. Right Image: A wider view labeled "Rear View" showing several smaller brick buildings spread out over an open area. The architecture of these structures aligns with that of the women's building, indicating they may be part of the same complex. Power lines are visible overhead, and the ground appears uneven with some visible pathways.

A title at the top reads “Almshouses of Schenectady County, N.Y.," providing context for the images, while handwritten identifiers (e.g., "A33" and "A88") are marked near the corners of each photograph.

This is a historical black and white photograph showing the almshouses of Schenectady County, NY. The image appears to be split into two connected views showing different angles of the buildings. On the left is a substantial brick building labeled as "WOMENS BUILDING," which appears to be a two or three-story structure with a formal architectural style typical of institutional buildings from the late 19th or early 20th century. The right portion, labeled "REAR VIEW," shows additional buildings and structures on the property, with what appears to be utility lines visible overhead. The grounds appear somewhat sparse and undeveloped, suggesting this might be from when the facility was relatively new or still under development. Almshouses were historically used as public housing facilities for the poor and those unable to support themselves.

The image presents a vintage photograph of two buildings, accompanied by a title and captions. The title, "Almshouses of Schenectady County, N.Y.", is centered at the top in black text on a white background.

Below the title, two sepia-toned photographs are displayed side by side. The left photograph features a large, two-story brick building with a gable roof and a covered porch. The right photograph shows a smaller, one-story building with a gable roof and a chimney. Both buildings appear to be part of an almshouse complex.

At the bottom of each photograph, a caption provides additional information.

The image is a scan of a dark gray page from an album or portfolio with a title in the center: "Almshouses of Schenectady County, N.Y."

On the left side is a black-and-white photograph of a three-story building with a symmetrical facade. It has a shallow hipped roof with a brick cornice. The brick facade has rows of evenly spaced windows. A small portico shelters the main entrance, supported by columns. A covered walkway connects the building to a second, similar structure. In front of the building, there is a well-manicured lawn and a gravel pathway. The caption below the photograph reads: "WOMEN'S BUILDING" (north of Administration Building).

On the right side is another black-and-white photograph, showing the rear view of the almshouses complex. Multiple buildings are visible, including brick structures with gabled roofs, chimneys, and a small white building. The photograph also captures power lines running overhead and a paved area in the foreground, casting shadows. The caption beneath this photograph reads: "REAR VIEW" (showing stable and outbuildings).

The scan has a vintage feel due to the black-and-white photography and the faded captions. The paper of the album appears matte and textured.

The image is a photograph of the Almshouses of Schenectady County, New York. It is divided into two sections, each depicting a different view of the facility.

On the left side, there is a labeled photograph of the "Women's Building." This building appears to be a large, rectangular structure with a gabled roof. The entrance is centrally located, with steps leading up to it. The windows are evenly spaced, and the building has a symmetrical design. The foreground shows a paved area and some greenery.

On the right side, there is a labeled photograph of the "rear view," which shows the "main building and outbuildings." This view is taken from behind the main building, capturing several smaller structures, likely outbuildings or storage areas, arranged around the perimeter. The main building is also visible, with a similar design to the one on the left, but the perspective allows for a view of additional buildings and a cleared area in the background. There are utility poles and wires running across the top of the image.

The photograph appears to be historical, as it is in black and white and seems to be taken in an older style, possibly from the early 20th century. The image is framed with a light border, and there is text at the top that identifies the subject of the photograph.
