The Turf Restaurant on Grand St., which can be seen in your photo, opened as The Brass City Grill in 1931. It was modeled after the famous Brass Rail restaurant on Broadway in New York City, and had murals of the Waterbury brass mills painted on the walls. You can see a newspaper article about the opening and a photo of one of the murals by clicking on the brass city grill name at the top of this post.
