1947... JALAN MINANGKABAU OR JALAN TELUK BETUNG?
FB Lost Jakarta - This photo with relatively newly built modern houses is in the collection of the Netherlands Photo Museum in Rotterdam and was taken in 1947 by photographer Cas Oorthuys (1908-1975).
We would love your help with identifying which street this is. There are a few options:
Unlikely:
1. Jalan Latuharhary (Dambrinkweg/Van Breenweg): the banjir canal was much wider and we would have seen the railway track in between.
2. Jalan Surabaya Timur (Soerabajaweg Oost): the houses along this stretch were built in the 1930s and we would have seen more grown trees/foliage.
