Manhattan: Broome Street - Thompson Street

No. 1. Broome Street, east from a point between Thompson Street and West Broadway (elevated line thereon) and across the latter. It is at this point that Watts Street branches off, forming a triangular open area in the foreground. The photographer is technically standing in same to view northeastward across the Sixth Ave. Elevated line. May 7, 1938. P. L. Sperr. No. 2 & 3. A set of two views showing No. 504 and No. 506 Broome Street, the two buildings appearing on the left of view No. 1. They are at the N. W. corner of West Broadway and are evidently old residences converted to commercial use. View 2: May 7, 1938. P. L. Sperr. View 3: March 11, 1938.
