Looks like a Checker Cab. All gone now and as rare as hens teeth! I'd love a NYC Checker Cab.

I would have been about 3 when this was made, PS 19 is still there, the blimpies is now a Gray's Papaya clone and Beth Israel looked modern then, looks kitschy now. I currently live across the street in Stuy Town [grew up on St Marks]

It's definitely 1st Avenue. Still nice to look at.

You don't go UP 2nd Avenue, you go DOWN 2nd Avenue. What gives??
@amba1246 You're right, I've changed the title to reflect that it's actually 1st Ave, not 2nd.
