Description
Colorized photo from 1890
Original Title: Fraunce's Tavern
Location: Manhattan, NY, 54 Pearl St
I'm not sure why it bothered me so much, but I really wanted to know when this image was taken. Looking around at the dates of this image, I found years ranging from 1900-1910. Instead I chose 1890, as the building was still in use. By about 1904, the building was bought and then they redid the building and it was opened looking totally different in 1907. The current building standing in this spot today, looks nothing at all like this one.
The original image had many very dark shadowed areas, and it was very hard to extract any kind of detail, I just did the best I could of what I thought I saw hidden in there.
When I first saw this, I was attracted to the two sailor kids in front of the window, but looking at it now, you can barely see them in there. Oh well.
