Hilton-Green, a Lieutenant in the United States Navy and Miss Virginia Pritchard, a daughter of Dr. William B. Pritchard and Mrs. Pritchard of 143 ..."

This shot is taken looking southeast across the park from the north side, near 17th Street. Two buildings in the background, the second and third south of 16th Street and Union Square East, are still there, though some additional stories have been added. www.google.com/maps/@40.735781,-73.989663,3a,75y,113.61h,...
