Description: On a broad avenue with ornate lamp standards, a traffic signal tower with a clock rises in the foreground; beside it a policeman in a peaked cap waves on the cars, the pier sheds and flags of the waterfront line the left side, and at the right loft buildings stand behind a sign pointing to the Holland Tunnel. The avenue appears to be the West Side waterfront road near the tunnel entrance.
