Well this looks like a subway - though from the light coming through the windows it could be an elevated train.
Which cities have els? Here in USA it could be: Chicago, Philly, NYC. Not sure of the historical significance tho, other than these riders do not seem enamored of any sort of fashion code.

This is definitely a pic of a NYC subway car from the 1970s. They were a filthy mess. I remember them well...
If that's correct, here's an iconic picture from what event? For a bonus what was is the structure pictured in the top left?

Right answer, Stirch. Unfortunately I couldn't seem to load a larger picture. That's the old Shea Stadium at the top left.
The iconic "Unisphere", which I believe is still there, is a the center of the pic.

The “el” is an elevated train, which still exist in parts of NYC. Here is a photo of the No. 7 train, which runs from Manhattan to its terminal in Flushing, Queens. (Which is where I met my husband. )
It’s the New York World’s Fair from 1964. Photo is horribly small & cannot identify which structure you are speaking of.

AND... my family went to the 64 World's Fair and they always told a story about how my mother could not go on a log flume (or some ride) because she was pregnant with me!

So, this looks like some sort of military recruitment when men were still segregated in the armed forces by race. So for the U.S. that could be anywhere up until the end of WWII.
So my guess (based on these factors) is that this may be a photo from Tuskegee circa 1941 of the famous airmen before they were trained to be pilots???

Let's see... we've got what looks like a white guy in a military uniform next to a black guy in a military uniform addressing a group of black men in civilian clothes.

Good guess, but I wonder why they're aboard a ship?...And there's a cowboy among them. I wonder what the drill sergeant had to say to the new recruit in a cowboy hat-with a chin strap? I got think that wasn't the best head gear to wear in WWII.
Maybe it's the Tuskegee Airmen on their way to Europe?

Good deduction by you both. But no cigar. Capt hit nail on head with the fact they are on a ship. Nothing to do with America or airmen.
