It appears to be on the approach to Queensboro Plaza as a Westbound Seven train makes its way there. I’m not sure of the building though.

The clocktower is the old Bank of Manhatten building. I remember being puzzled with it while commuted from Jackson Heights 1970’s through ’90’s. This area was known as “Dutch Kills” before development? Yes?

Larry got it right! Well, you all got it right, but Larry got it first.

Richard identified the building as the former Bank of Manhattan:

How can that be a #7 IRT train. IRT cars have only 3 sets of doors per car. This train’s cars cars clearly have 4 sets of doors.
