Hello Joseph,
The date of this photo is circa 1921-22 and the building in the background is Bushman Baths, located at West 15th and the Boardwalk (which is under construction in the photo, completed in 1923.) Bushman Baths burned in 1973. Note the spelling change in the name (they dropped the "c" somewhere along the way.)
Hope this helps!

The Buschmab Baths was owned by Albert Buschman. I believe he also owned an amusement park and roller coaster in Coney Island. Can you give me more information on him?
