Vintage American Taxis.
A bit of detective work is required with this photograph, taken in 1920s America and showing various taxis/cabs driving in a street scene.

In the foreground is a policeman, or traffic control officer, guiding the traffic in this vintage scene. Turning right is what looks like a taxi cab, with its driver looking over our way. It has a distinctively shaped logo on the rear door, which I'm hoping that a taxi expert will be able to recognise? Another cab is about to turn across his bows. Charles, from taxi-library.home.att.net thinks it could be a scene from 1920s New York City (NYC), quite possibly Manhattan, but can anyone, who perhaps lives in that area, identify the location for sure, if this is indeed NYC? The street sign visible on the right looks like it might be East 50-something-th Street.
