It is remarkable - in all these LOC images from the 30's and 40's thusfar - CocaCola, occasionally RC Cola, but not a Pepsi to be seen.

This looks like the main entrance to the shops and to the right where there is a brick wall I think its now an open air flea market of sorts. If this is from the perspective I am thinking of. Millions of people on cruise ships come through here now.

Beautifully preserved pic. Wow. It is the main entrance. On the left, further up where the pic is cut off is where the post office is now. On the right stands monuments of some our past educators of STT. I can't believe how different main street looked back then.

Hermosa postal del pasado,magnifica arquitectura de la ciudad,que tranquilidad y paz se aprecia en sus habitantes. Felicitaciones,por pemitirnos conocer tan preciado tesoro. ¡¡ Gracias !!

It's a good possibility one of those ladies there could be a relative.

Check out those Easter bonnets!

Saint Thomas Church, located at the corner of 53rd Street and Fifth Avenue in the borough of Manhattan, New York, New York in the United States, is an Episcopal parish church of the Episcopal Diocese of New York. It is also known as Saint Thomas Church Fifth Avenue or as Saint Thomas Church in the City of New York and was incorporated on January 9, 1824. The current structure, completed in 1914, is the fourth church built to house this congregation and was designed by the architects Ralph Adams Cram and Bertram Grosvenor Goodhue in the French High Gothic style.

This is so neat I wonder if these are some of the same stores that where converted into the tons of Jewelry shops now in Charlotte Amalie?
