23rd Street - The Ladies Mile on the F train

This stop is near what used to be called the "Ladies Mile" with old department stores in big cast iron buildings. The walls here are bedecked with hats. What I discovered when I got off the train to look was that each hat is attributed to a famous personage of the era with some fun presentations. So thie week.... The Ladies Mile Hats.
