Looks like they\'re following terrain contours or something. It wasn\'t like today when they can do unlimited work with big machines. Back then mankind had to be more humble.

There are neighborhoods around here that were built on hills in the

grades using human and animal muscle power.
Here is my street ca 1953.

We have houses here that are on dirt lanes or stairways with no street
access. It\'s wild to see six guys hauling a refrigerator or a piano up
200 rickety wooden stairs. People move stuff into their back yards
with giant cranes and the occasional helicopter.

The back yards seem to have limited access. You would have to run
firehoses thru the houses.

New York City is like that, but no back yards.
I had a cop ring my bell and ask if he could go through the house into
my back yard, in case a perp jumped the fence from a bust nearby.
