    Just like another LOC photo, this was taken on the north side of New York City's Union Square, on East 17th Street to be specific. In fact, I've found a modern photo on flickr (not mine, btw) whose scope and angle closely matches this one! It seems that all of the buildings on Union Square East in this photo--save for the very tall one on the right--are gone, but that many (maybe all) of the ones behind them are still around.

    This was the seventh annual auto excursion of Brooklyn orphans to Coney Island, sponsored by volunteer drivers from the Automobile Club, according to this NYT story: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9E04E...

    I don't know why people complain about advertising in ballparks ruining everything...back in the day that's how it always was.

    Well, the fences were wooden, easy to paint and paint over. But, it would absolutely ruin the brick and ivy of Wrigley Field. Those stupid advertising signs behind home plate are enough.

    Strange sense of deja vu, seeing this picture. Like someplace from a dream. I wonder if any of these people are still dead.
  • Josi_Silva said:
    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called billboards, and we'd love to have this added to the group!
  • Instinctive Jar said:
    i agree with geekem, the view is facing east, looks like those houses are still there in fact, compare the roofs.
  • Rudy Evans said:
    I look at this photo and it reminds me of OUR TOWN where the actors sit there portraying the dead-- here is seems like the deceased are sitting there watching life go by. "Hey Bert, isn't that Ralph Jones driving this way? I always thought he drove Plymouths."
