Description

<p>In the part of Proskuriv that is near the Bug river (in the area of the present Vaysera, Prymakova, Buzska and other streets), quarters were formed during the 17<sup>th</sup> and 18<sup>th</sup> Centuries to host the poorest members of the city’s Jewish population – craftsmen, traders, wagon drivers and others. The construction was mostly one-story and chaotic. The buildings captured in the picture have not been preserved.  <br /><em>Serhiy Esiunin</em></p>
