We looked at the buildings on the even-numbered side of the Bowery circa 1957 compared to the most recent 2022 Google maps image. Tonight we are looking at the odd-numbered side.

Once again, the document by Architectural and Urban Historian Kerri Culhane, The Bowery Historic District State and National Register Report<\/em> (listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 2013, United States Department of the Interior, National Park Service), enabled me to positively identify each of the buildings:

Joseph Papin drew individual drawings of several of these buildings (the Bowery Mission drawing appears in the post on March 22, 2024, along with drawings of men inside the Mission):

The address on the is 225 Bowery, which was the Salvation Army Hotel. Tanny’s Buy’s and Sells is on the first floor. Many of the hotels had commercial businesses or shops on the ground floor:

The next store on the ground floor at 223 Bowery is S. Tapper, clothing and general merchandise:

Underneath the Alabama Hotel (119-221 Bowery) is Fuerst Brothers Restaurant at 221 Bowery and Star Kitchens Manufacturers at 119 Bowery. I really like that The Bowery Historic District (Culhane, 2013) document made it possible to positively identify these drawings.
