This photograph captures a bustling scene on June 14,1916, at the Fass Cafe located on 19 W. 31st Street in New York City. The sign for the cafe stands prominently above the storefront, drawing attention from passersby. Pedestrians can be seen strolling along the sidewalk, creating a lively atmosphere around this popular establishment. The Fass Cafe was undoubtedly a hub of activity during this time period, as indicated by the numerous pedestrians and other businesses lining the street. The photo showcases an authentic slice of early 20th-century American life with its charming architecture and vibrant signage. Photographed by William Davis Hassler for Lawrence L. Strauss, this image is now part of the collection held by the New-York Historical Society in USA. It offers us a glimpse into an era when cafes like Fass were integral to community life and served as gathering places for friends and neighbors.
