Here's a map of the area in 1962:

The building highlighted green is 23 Hart Avenue. This photo was taken from the roof of that building.

The building highlighted yellow is Ocean View Court. When the photo was taken it was still under construction, and part of it can be seen at the top left corner of the photo.

The building highlighted blue is marked 'Building In Progress' on the 1962 map. In the photo we can just see the square pits being dug for its foundations.

On the road at the top of the photo a single man is walking past the entrance to a lane. I've marked that entrance on the map with a red dot.
