Manhattan: Park Avenue - 47th Street

Park Avenue, north from 47th Street, showing east side. On the east side, going north is shown the Park Lane (1924). The Railroad Y.M.C.A. (1913-1929) hides St. Bartholomew's Church (1919). The Ambassador Hotel (1920) follows, between 51st and 52nd Streets. In the background, the new Ritz Tower rises from the N.W. corner of 57th Street. The little parks in the center of the avenue have not been altered yet. Ewing Galloway, Photographer. 1926.
