Rockaway NY - The Bowery from 1900. The Bowery is/was a place where you can get a snack and basically spent money. It was kind of like a midway at fair, but no rides as far as i know.

However these days, there is very little of this place left. In fact this street has residential houses on it right now. The left side is a parking lot for a condo, and the right side, where that yellow building is, was just recently torn down and replaced with an apartment building. But in its heyday, it was more resort like (being so close to the sea), it had the same look as Coney Island. There was something for everyone. Hot dogs and oysters seemed to be rather popular in this area.

My name is Mike Savad, I create one of a kind images. Photo realistic, is what people think of first. I specialize in job themes, such as Pharmacist, Doctor, Firemen, Lawyer, etc. Steampunk is another favorite. I'm certain you will find something that you will like. My art is inspired by Norman Rockwell and Paintings from the time of the Renaissance. Be sure to visit my Scene in Color section. I expertly restore and colorize black and white images. See the past come alive with color. Each image is painstakingly cleaned and repaired, colors are researched and shaded in. Images are designed to coordinate with the rest of my collection. The past was far more colorful than you would have imagined. Want something fun to do? Sometimes I hide...
