I cropped it so the street sign is missing. A reply…

BTW, if you want to make a pilgrimage to this one in particular, judging by the mailbox and the building across the street, it appears to be the one at West End Avenue and 66th Street. (The other three are also on WEA, at 90th, 100th, and 101st.)
