129 Broad Street
Corner of South & Broad Sts. 10/18/1914 View showing South Street sidewalk in front of 129 Broad Street and the cross walk across Broad Street. Camera located on sidewalk at base line station 50/85 looking west. Photograph displays the corner of the intersection of South and Broad Streets, and what is probably the old South Ferry elevated train station in the far background. The sidewalk is severely cracked and several pedestrians can be seen walking along it. The buildings are notable for their fire escapes. The actual street is still composed of cobblestone.
