Manhattan: Bowery - Grand Street

1932

133-139 Bowery, north of the N.E. corner of Grand Street. No. 135 Bowery, north of the N.E. corner of Grand Street, is a frame building with a brick front. 1932. J. Clarence Davies Collection, Museum of the City of New York. The structure at the right (No.133) was formerly occupied by the restaurant and saloon of Pat Farley, politician and one of the "Boodle Aldermen" who figured in the old Broadway trolley franchise scandal. Title to this holding was recently (about 1939) transferred thru Hiram Rinaldo, broker. See, The New York Times of May 26, 1939 for a reference to this, on the reported sale of blds. across the street (No's. 138-140, Callahan the Hatter) thru the same individual.
