Manhattan: East River Drive - 103rd Street (East)
(1) East River Drive, north from East 103rd (left, not seen) to East 104th Streets, showing a steam shovel dumping the debris of the burned warehouse which occupied that site, into the barge the "Frances P." In the right center appear Nos. 453-447 East 104th Street, a 1-story garage on the north side of the street, and 445-439, two units of the Manhattan Grocery Co. P. L. Sperr. (2) The same, showing a closer view of the activity at the N.W. corner of East 103rd Street (obscured, in view 1, by the barge cabin). The activity is that of a loading machine of the Department of Sanitation clearing away brewer's grain, after the burning of the warehouse which contained it. P. L. Sperr. (3) A more inclusive view southward to East 102nd Street. P. L. Sperr.
