A row of furnished-room houses. North side of Seventh Avenue, Fourteenth to Fifteenth Streets, New York City

Exterior view of furnished row houses on north side of 7th Ave. between 14th St. and 15th St. in New York City. Some of the windows have awnings. Pedestrians walk along the sidewalks and street. A caption to the picture says, "Every house in this block advertises furnished rooms. This and the preceding photograph show typical glimpses of the west side of New York, from Eleventh Street to Twenty-second Street. Splendid old residences have been given over to roomers. Many of the buildings are sadly decadent."
