New York City
1973, printed 2011

A bustling street scene with people engaged in various activities: individuals walking, a woman in a colorful headscarf speaking on a payphone, and another person looking at items on a vendor's cart. In the background, there's a parked car and the wing of an airplane visible, suggesting the proximity to an airport.
