Description
Black-and-white photo of Public Service Buses terminal; taxi stand; PATH entrance; on Hudson Place at River Street, Hoboken, no date, circa 1965-1969.
3-1/4" x 4-3/4" wide print. Photograph taken by donor Jack O'Brien (but not so marked.) Reverse has modern ink notations by O'Brien as noted below.
View is south. Signage on the bus shed and the entrance to the PATH (Port Authority Trans Hudson, formerly the Hudson & Manhattan Railroad).
O'Brien notes on the back: Path Station, Bus Station
Because of the direction of the view and the fact that the World Trade Center then under construction is not visible (construction photos are well documented for this period), the photo is certainly not later than 1969.
----
This photo is in a group of 23 in this accession which are the same size prints and apparently taken during the same period; none are dated, but automobile models and other elements seen in some images suggest the date range.
