Depicting the docks of New York City , this Men of the Docks is a These men appear to be day laborers , at the docks to find work. They look to the left, as if receiving a message, while a large steam liner looms over them to their right. Behind them are a tugboat and the waters and ice floes of the harbor in winter. Further behind them are the skyscrapers of the lower Manhattan skyline.
The winter weather about them is bleak and gray. A writer for The Craftsman considered Men of the Docks to be "free of affectation of soul or technique", presenting a situation of solidity the way a normal man would see it, thus holding onto the scene through reality. Snyder and Rebecca Zurier consider the painting to leave viewers in suspense as to the exact nature of the message received by this group of men, whether it is news that no work is available or notice that the men can begin their labor.
This tension, they write, paired with the juxtaposition of the skyline and harbor almost hidden from land , emphasizes the precariousness of the laborers' situation.

Its fun to watch the boaters park and come in for a drink or lunch. We stopped here for an evening drink and snack. It has a proper pub atmosphere and the food is good with excellent service.
Also a good place to meet all the local car- and water-bourne dogs and owners! Lovely view of the water below from the upper decks.
Food wasn't good but the staff were nice. Gets crowded at night which is to be expected as it's a popular place. The live band feature is nice.
THey allowed us to have the dog on the lower level only, which was fine. Sat under a speaker, not nice, wobbly tables, lots of flies, pub food and cold beer.
Drinks were delivered fast and waiters were pleasant which makes it nice. Regular roadhouse menu with good portions, lots of drink choices. Great view if you can be seated out side. Inside was not as pleasant. Dropped in for dinner on a weeknight. The view is superb.
The service was good. The food was just O. Good selection of local beers.
