Fifth Avenue on a Sunday in 1902 was the city's great promenade, and this view captures the crowds that filled the avenue for the parade. Churchgoers, families and carriage riders turned the broad street into a social stage, while the elegant mansions and shop fronts of the era lined the route. Images like this one show New York at the turn of the twentieth century, when the avenue was becoming the center of wealth, fashion and display in the growing metropolis.
