  This is likely a view of Mott Street, in the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Check out this photo on Picasa: to the left is a storefront with a street number of 56, and to the right is an entrance flanked by columns whose capitals are very similar to the one we see here. Here's the scene on Google Maps' street view.
