A bandstand in Goshen, New York, a village in Orange County, is the subject of this view. The record gives no date, but the caption card links it to a larger set of bandstand photographs from several states, and such structures were a common feature of American towns from the late 1800s into the early 1900s. Local bands played from these open platforms during summer concerts that drew residents to the park for an evening of music and conversation. The open, roofed design let sound carry while sheltering the musicians from weather.
