  Copy at www.greatbigcanvas.com/view/human-fly-john-jammie-reynold... is captioned, "Human Fly' John 'Jammie' Reynolds juggles while balancing atop a roof decoration in New York City. In the distance is the New York Life Building at the Madison Square Park. Ca. 1915-1920."

  I think the tower in the right background is probably actually the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan_Life_Insurance_Company... and that beside and below it at extreme right may be the Flatiron building. See www.nyc-architecture.com/GRP/GRP19-metlife2.jpg

  I think you are right, and this is a view southeast from Herald Square.
  A similar photo ran in the New York Tribune for June 22, 1919:
  "Reynolds, the original steeple jack, pushes the perils of his pro- fession a point and performs perilous acrobatic stunts on the roof of the Herald Square Building, 22 stories high. Slipping would mean a 400-foot descent into Broadway. C. Curtis."
