In 1919 Thanksgiving fell on November 27. This ad appeared in The New York Times on November 16, 1919.

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it.
[Today 223 and 225 Fulton Street are ghosts in a pedestrian area between One World Trade Center and the 9/11 Memorial North Pool. But 309 Madison Avenue is fresh&co, offering a “blended nut & nut-free and gluten-free & gluten environment.”]

I had to look. https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7124561,-74.0133437,3a,90y,112.99h,84.82t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sGpORJuwWLXItkPeIDbz4zQ!2e0!6s%2F%2Fgeo0.ggpht.com%2Fcbk%3Fpanoid%3DGpORJuwWLXItkPeIDbz4zQ%26output%3Dthumbnail%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile.gps%26thumb%3D2%26w%3D203%26h%3D100%26yaw%3D99.30788%26pitch%3D0%26thumbfov%3D100!7i13312!8i6656
Yep. Every address says to me, “Try Google Maps.” I was hoping to find the stores in the archive of 1940 NYC real-estate photos, but no luck. Those exact addresses are missing, but other photos suggest that the stores were gone by then.
