Centre Street at Broome Street, Manhattan, NY. Label at lower left corner of print incorrectly identifies the location as Elm and Broome streets. Northward view along Centre Street (although the street sign in this image identifies this part of Centre Street as Marion Street). View of excavation along Centre Street, with a barrier bearing a sign reading: "CLOSED. Subway Work. DANGER." Also showing piles of dirt and cobblestones, workers on scaffolding above the excavation pit, a large wooden structure with a pulley, and young boys just outside the barrier. E.H. Thomas, the man accompanying the photographer, is at the center of the image.
