The Grand Army of the Republic (GAR), a brotherhood of Army, Navy, and Marine veterans who fought for the Union in the Civil War, pay tribute on May 30, 1929. At that time the holiday was known as Decoration Day. They are gathered at the Soldiers' and Sailors' Monument on Riverside Drive and 89th Street.

i heard gotham is in new jersey, if gotham is new york then what is metropolis?
gotham geographically was placed in nj during the run of tom king starting in 2011. but i hate him and i hate those comics. i am also from nyc so i am obligated to hate jersey. so no.
gotham and metropolis are both based on nyc, explicitly (except for the dark knight movies where it’s very clearly chicago.)
so except for those two things, gotham is in new york state.
and metropolis is in delaware.
they are both just going “what if NYC was shaped the same, but in a slightly different part of the coast?”

Augustus Post has the distinction of being the first person in New York City to receive a traffic citation involving an automobile. When he was driving his 1900 White Steamer on Riverside Drive in the uncharted wilderness of the Upper West Side of Manhattan, he was chased and pulled over by a policeman on a bicycle and promptly ticketed for speeding. He was traveling at a rate of ten miles per hour.

In 1921, 90th St. and Riverside Drive could almost have been mistaken for a suburb. A hundred and one years later, it's unquestionably urban.

Britannia Inn. Holga 120. Ilford HP5.
The Britannia Inn has been owned by various chains since I have lived in Liverpool. It's position on Riverside Drive next to Otterspool Prom and overlooking the River Mersey makes it popular in the summer months. Especially when the sun is shining.
