@EphemeralNY Growing up around the close 5 story tenements of the lower east side and its relatively narrow streets, I always found the tall residential buildings and wide boulevard-like streets of uptown and the upper west side disconcerting. The opposite of Kramer in that Seinfeld episode.
@EphemeralNY Those neighborhoods lacked an intimacy, or so I felt.

Recently wrote an essay about my godfather Uncle Hans, who for most of his life lived in the Excelsior Hotel on 81 St in NYC. He was a writer who turned me into one. He typed my first crime story, which I dictated to him when I was 8, and bought my first typewriter months later.

@EphemeralNY Good spot. Looking at the posters, I now see a Schlitz ad partly hidden by a tree. It turns out Schlitz was already the biggest national brand by then. (Further observation: It looks like there’s some Local Law 11 scaffolding there on Riverside, too. 😄) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_Sc…
Fascinating! Thank you! I've never seen this picture before!
@BrownstoneDetec I think they were part of the Hudson-Fulton Celebration, which included a massive flotilla of ships from September 25-October 9, 1909. The photo may not have been produced until 1910.
@EphemeralNY The bridal path (and blurred horses) caught my eye. But what’s with the flotilla of ships? The three stacks and mesh towers look like some battleships of the pre-WWI era. (This is the USS Maine, launched in 1899.) Was there a Fleet Day then?
Beautiful view! And, yes, who did those ships battle (?) ships belong to?
