    The photos featuring Elsie Hanneman and "canoe tilting" were taken at the Colonial Yacht Club, located on the small beach just below Riverside Drive on the Hudson River, roughly between 140th and 142nd Streets in Harlem. Today, the Henry Hudson Parkway and North River Wastewater Treatment Plant occupies this and surrounding property. However, in 1993 the site returned to being a place of recreation, as Riverbank State Park was constructed on top of the wastewater plant, some 69-ft above the Hudson. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Riverbank_State_Park

    Miss Elsie Hanneman, The Girl Diver, was making quite a splash in the 1910s.
