Default New Yorkers, need help with locations

For all you New Yorkers out there, can you tell me where this location is in Manhattan? These are screen caps from "Breakfast at Tiffany's" starring Audrey Hepburn and George Peppard

I know what you are talking about, but they are not in the fifties...they might be further downtown...those cows were actually put allaround the city as art, and then later auction off to highest bidders for charity for kids.

Those cows are not in the city anymore....you will see some of them around, because some select corporations around the city bought them....they are very nice though

40's-50's correct, definatly Park Ave...

I'm thinking 53th and that building and fountain is definatly Park Ave East, so the traffic is going North bound ( on that side of Park Ave.)


Edit : Sorry Harry did not see your post, glad we concur...
