Naval Parade (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

  • Michael Daddino said:
    If you go to the LOC website, you can get a hi-res version of the pic that allows a closer look at some of the details otherwise invisible on Flickr. There's a street sign that clearly places this at Columbus Circle and Eighth Avenue in Manhattan. There's also a Child's Restaurant (a pioneering chain restaurant) and a Cadillac showroom.

    here is a link to Google Maps, you can use street view to see what it looks like today. www.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=colu...

    According to this June 8, 1912 New York Times article, the International Hotel Workers' Union was at West 44th Street; the article suggests a strike is imminent.

    It looks like the previous photo is the same building at street level.
  • jjg976 said:
    At the very top, it clearly says the date is 5/31/12.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks, jjg976, We've added the more specific date to our source data.
