Residence SEP 1918 1114 40th Street, Brooklyn, Kings, New York, USA

Occupation SEP 1918 26 South Street, New York City, New York, USA

Continental Fish Company
Salesman
The South Street address intersects with Fulton Street at the waterfront - the location of the renown Fulton Fish Market.

The Continental Fish Company was presumably a part of (if not the same as) the Fulton Fish Market which is described by WIKI as follows:

During much of its 183-year tenure at the original site, the Fulton Fish Market was the most important wholesale East Coast fish market in the United States. Opened in 1822, it was the destination of fishing boats from across the Atlantic Ocean. By the 1950s, most of the Market's fish were trucked in rather than offloaded from the docks. The wholesalers at the Market then sold it to restaurateurs and retailers who purchased fresh fish of every imaginable variety.

Prices at the Fulton Fish Market were tracked and reported by the United States government.[not verified in body] In its original location, it was one of the last, and most significant, of the great wholesale food markets of New York. It survived major fires in 1835, 1845, 1918, and 1995. In its new location in the Hunts Point Cooperative Market, it handles millions of pounds of seafood daily, with annual sales exceeding $1 billion, and is second in size only to Tokyo's Tsukiji fish market.
.......
The Fulton Fish Market was one of New York's earliest open-air fish markets. From a New York newspaper dated 1831:

In New York, there are a number of Markets. Those called Fulton and Washington Markets are the largest. Fulton Market is at the East end of Fulton Street near the East River ... The first was formerly situated in Maiden Lane on the East River side, and was called Fly Market.

The Fulton Fish Market is one of the oldest fish markets in the United States, in competition with the smaller Maine Avenue Fish Market in Washington, D.C. The Fulton Market was claimed to be the oldest in continuous operation in one place (since 1822) until it was relocated in 2005. The Maine Avenue Market in D.C. (since 1805, in various incarnations) is now considered the oldest continuously operating open-air market that still survives on the East Coast. However, the Fulton Fish Market is the oldest institution that still retains a primarily wholesale function; although its original public market on South Street is now closed.

The move from the historic Manhattan site was due to a number of factors:

* cramped location
* lack of modern amenities, such as climate control
* increasing real estate value of Manhattan site for retail and residential use
* redevelopment pressure due to desirable proximity to the South Street Seaport and the Fulton Street/East River area

	Ryan, David J. Sr: 1923 SS Rosalind Manifest David sailed from St John's Newfoundland on 1 September 1923 and arrived at the Port of New York on 6 September 1923. He listed his address as 325 Grand Ave, Brooklyn, NY and his naturalization in Brooklyn, Kings County on 25 June 1923. Other passengers were added after the 9:45 posting by the crew. Ancestry.com: The SS Rosalind was built in 1911, and initially named the Lady Gwendolen. In 1919, she was purchased from Dundee, Perth & London Shipping Co., and renamed the SS Rosalind (3rd ship with the same name). The Rosalind was used on the St. John's to New York run as a replacement for the Florizel. In 1929, she was part of the sale when Bowrings sold the Red Cross Line to the Bermuda & West Indies SS Co., Hamilton. She was sold in 1936 to Yugoslavia and renamed Lovcen.
