Four men sitting around a makeshift heater (coke-charcoal, continually fired as the only source of heat) in the lobby of the Hotel McCurdy, 101-11 SE 1st St. The hat of the third man from the left identifies him as a Transportation Porter for the Yellow Cab Co., which had a branch in the hotel lobby. The sign behind the porter promises electric light in all guest rooms tonight, but in a limited amount. The lobby floor is covered in wood planks.
