Pelham Street disappears from the map to make room for the Rutgers Houses
Pelham Street once ran between Pike Street and Rutgers Street, from Cherry Street to Monroe Street. About 1960 the city took it off the map so the Rutgers Houses could be built over the blocks it had crossed. The firm Hart, Jerman & Associates designed the development in 1961.
