Assuming Mrs. B. is the older lady on the left, she is Helen Van Cortlandt Morris Burr. A cameo of her is in the NY Historical Society collection: "Helen Van Cortlandt Morris (ca. 1885-1958) The subject was a sister of Monson Morris. As children she and her brother were members of the household of Alonzo C. Monson, a former judge of the California Supreme Court and treasurer of the New York Jockey Club. In 1904 Miss Morris married Nelson Beardsley Burr, a New York lawyer and railroad executive." www.nyhistory.org/node/45105 From "Men of 1914" genealogybiography.com/1914/biographies016.htm "Burr, Nelson B., 165 Broadway, New York City; residence, 1 East 51st St., N.

Henry Clay Frick mansion at 70th street and Fifth Avenue, construction began in 1913. Frick died in 1919. The Frick Collection opened to the public in 1935.

Thanks for pinning down the building. It looks as though there is a 1913 date in the left corner. We'll add the information when we update the description.

This is E. 65th Street, looking East from 5th Avenue. The large building at left is gone, but at least one of the brick buildings down 65th street remains. www.google.com/maps/@40.7679835,-73.9703027,3a,75y,126.16...

Thanks for pinpointing the location--close looking at the tiff file on the Library of Congress site confirmed it with nice, clear street signs. We'll add information to the description.
