![The image is a black and white photograph depicting an urban street scene with numerous vintage vehicles, including taxis, parked or in motion. The environment suggests it could be from the mid-20th century based on the style of cars and clothing worn by pedestrians.
In the foreground, several older model cars are visible, some displaying license plates that identify them as New York City taxis, indicated by their distinctive markings such as "Skyview" or other labels associated with taxi services in the city. The vehicles feature prominent grilles, rounded shapes typical for the era's automotive design, and white-walled tires.
The middle ground is occupied by a crowd of people walking on both sides of the street, some crossing at intersections while others appear to be engaged in conversation or simply strolling. Many pedestrians are dressed in mid-century fashion: men wearing suits with hats such as fedoras and women sporting dresses complemented by gloves and headscarves.
The background is lined with buildings that suggest a dense urban setting typical of New York City's downtown areas during the time period implied by the image. There are no modern elements like street signs or electronic devices, which could indicate an earlier timeframe for when Dorothea Lange took this photograph.
