I stand corrected. Excellent research Noir Noir.

It first shows up at the twelve minute mark.

At the 16:23 mark a street car goes by. . .





. . .revealing a 'mystery' drug store.





As the little girl offers the policeman a piece of candy you can see a street number on the drug store's awning.



hmmm...possibly 3267....

Do ya'll think we can figure out where this drug store was located. (or is located)

I've decided to go ahead and add this frame.

Here is the policeman, from a different angle, eating the candy with several buildings behind him.



Of course this doesn't necessarily mean the buildings are across the store from the drug store. (although that's what the shot implies)
The shot might have been taken at another time (or location) and edited into the sequence.
