These are wonderful. I love the luminosity of the colours, and I'm fascinated by the ways in which some of the places in question don't look so very different today.*
Thank you for the sharing of them.
*I do wish that the shot of McSorley's showed more of the street, as I'd be curious to know what else was there back then. Today, as best I recall, there's a Burmese restaurant next door, or perhaps it's one more over. I've never eaten there, but one of my professors ordered us takeaway from them one time when he had to change the day of our class on account of having a gig and the only available timeslot was during suppertime. Delicious food--it made me understand how he developed such a fondness for Burma.

Yes! They're beautiful photographs, of whatever time.
Thank you for the sharing of them.
You're very welcome. This sort of thing needs to be shared.
Also, you had a pretty neat professor.
