If you're in the NYC area, I hope you've managed to steer clear of the storm tonight.

Maybe they're carrying props from a play; it is the theater district.

So far the storm was a few minutes of wind followed by an hour of light rain.

This broadcast on the other hand. . . .

@WR and @Gary, I've just seen some general ominousness and wind outside here in Brooklyn. Maybe that'll be the extent of it.

I found this playlist image from the archive of NYC tax photos. If you Google any borough + 1980s tax photos, you can find an archive of images of pretty much every land plot in the city.

I think this technique works with other boroughs too.

The building on the left, at 145 West 45th, is apparently still standing - and indeed the sign would be for the recently deceased O'Lunney's pub, itself also quite old but yet another victim of the pandemic
Avatar 10:27pm
Constantly Choking:

damn, time goes by quick, rip JR
  10:28pm
headcleaner:

About the pub's owner, from the Irish Echo: "Hugh O’Lunney, known widely and equally in the Irish American community for his hospitality, generosity and commitment to a united Ireland, has died after losing his battle with cancer."
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:30pm
Sam Segal:

@CC, just checked and I was off by one year. He died in 2010. Still feels like so much more recently than that. RIP indeed.

@Sam gonna spin Blood Visions at 12 now
  10:33pm
headcleaner:

Stop the presses! O'Lunney's indeed had a long history, but at various other addresses in the neighborhood (it moved to the 145 West 45th address long after the tax photo was taken). So the sign is for some other "-y's" establishment.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:34pm
Sam Segal:

It's too late, headcleaner. The story's gone to press. We'll have to issue a formal correction next week.

The building in this old photo and the one in a new street photo of O'Lunney's is the same.
Avatar 10:47pm
northguineahills:

oh, and from the lore of the ancient bartender, Bill, Holland Bar was across the street from the Port Authority until the floor collapsed, and they had to move in '94. (I believe there's a Turkish restaurant at the former location.)

@TDK: But the alley is gone.
Avatar 10:50pm
TDK60:

Yes. The sign may've been replaced or altered.

that's not an alley, a parking lot where once there was a building and so now a building again.
  10:53pm
headcleaner:

ah, the Holland Bar. My (NYC-based) romance with alcohol started a bit late, so I only know the gutted reincarnation

If anyone's curious to explore more tax photos from 1980s Manhattan, this is the database I pulled the photo from. nycma.lunaimaging.com...

Some mayoral candidate made a reference to theoretical crime in alleys in NYC during the Democratic debate and I was like WHAT ALLEYS?!? (Maybe there are some alleys in neighborhoods I'm not familiar with, though, like far upper Manhattan?)

and I am off to sleep a bit early tonight. Long day tomorrow. Thank you Sam and riders on the stream. Laters.

Lower Manhatan is full of alleys.... (no crime, though).
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:58pm
Sam Segal:

Only alleys I've come across are in Ridgewood, Queens. Maybe other areas of Queens have alleys too?
Avatar Swag For Life Member 10:59pm
Sam Segal:

Sleep well, WR!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:00pm
Ike:

Almost anytime you see a NYC-set TV show or movie with an alley, you know it's Vancouver, Toronto, or L.A. Unless it's Cortlandt Alley, one of the few alleys in Manhattan that I know of. They love to film there. (I probably don't know lower Manhattan exhaustively enough to know the other ones. I know Banksy hit one once.)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 11:00pm
Ike:

Or maybe that was a narrow street. Which is what Cortlandt Alley is, really.
  11:00pm
headcleaner:

Tribeca's got quite a few, but now they're white-collar, rather than blue-collar crime alleys. Picturesque as ever, though

Center City is crisscrossed with them, from river to river A lot of these are remnants of the 18th century street grid. When 8 feet or so was a perfectly decent width for a street.
