    Date in lower right is May 3, 1912. NYT has a May 3, 1912 article: query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B04EFDD153CE633A... COMMERCE CHAMBER HOST TO THE FRENCH; Distinguished Visitors Piloted Through Wall Street After Reception Luncheon May 3, 1912, Friday. To quote in part: 'At the Chamber of Commerce the monthly meeting was practically devoted to welcoming the Frenchmen. They were met by a score of prominent New-Yorkers, representative of finance, letters and public life. Andrew Carnegie sat next to Viscount de Chambrun. Near by were Joseph H. Choate, Chauncey M. Depew and Jacob H. Schiff. J.P. Morgan, Jr., Judge Elbert H. Gary, Admiral Peary and ex-Mayor Seth Low were on the opposite side of the rostrum. ... The members of the French delegation present were Gabriel Hanotaux, Viscount de Chambrun, Baron d'Estournelles de Constant, Gen. Lebon, Cound de Rochambeau, the Duc de Choisel, Louis Bleriot, Mm. Rene Bazin, Louis Barthou, Fernand Cormon, Leon Barthou, Girard, Dal Piaz, Gabriel Louis Jaray, and Gignoux.' The meeting began with memorial resolutions for the four members of the Chamber of Commerce who died on the Titanic.

Carl Schurz unveiling (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Joe Schumacher said:
    This is overlooking Morningside Park at 116th Street and Morningside Drive in Manhattan. The proper spelling of Carl's surname is Schurz. Here is the NYC Parks Department description of the monument. The monument was dedicated in 1913. The view is looking east toward southern and central Harlem and beyond. The President's House for Columbia University is behind us to the left. In 1968 The Who posed for the cover of their album, The Kids Are Alright, in front of the relief on the left.

    Thank you for this information! We'll correct the name in the source data and reload the description.

    My pleasure! I walk through that little plaza every day on the way to and from work.
