That building is now the International Tennis Hall of Fame on Bellvue Avenue. I passed it a few months ago while visiting Newport. I recognized it immediately. It still has the canopies, cedar shingles and that rounded archway.

Nice work Richard! Times sure have changed...

The building was completed in 1913, so this image must be from between 1910 and 1913.
The Library of Congress said:
Great! We'll narrow the date range and add the area of New York City and the Municipal Building identification from the tags.

World's tallest building, when it opened on April 25, 1913. Built for $13,500,000 -- and financed completely in cash by owner Frank W. Woolworth, the pioneer dimestore entrepreneur.

Also, the photo is looking North, you can see the Metropolitan Life building (completed in 1909) just to the left in the distance and the East River and Roosevelt Island on the right side of the photo off in the distance.
