 Then on April 17, 1915 a group of 58 News Photographers of the various news organizations in New York gathered at the Castle Cave Restaurant at 271 7th Ave., near 26th St and formed a fraternal organization where news photographers could meet on social occasions and exchange ideas and get to know one another better, instead of always meeting on the run at fires and breaking news stories.In those days the city was served by eleven daily newspapers and was the headquarters of numerous wire services and syndicates.Newspaper Row was along Park Row just across from City Hall.
