EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a bustling scene on Broadway, New York City, in the 19th century. Taken from Nineteenth Street, the image offers a unique perspective of this iconic street as it stretches northwards. The photographer skillfully captures the energy and vibrancy of the city with its busy sidewalks filled with people going about their Sunday routines. The historical significance of this photograph is evident as it was featured in "The New Metropolis" an influential book edited by E Idell Zeisloft in 1899. This publication aimed to showcase the growth and development of New York City during that time period. Notable landmarks can be seen in this snapshot, including the Continental Hotel and Herts Brothers' large hotels. These establishments played a significant role in shaping the hotel industry at that time. Edward A Morrison's lens also captures some prominent businesses like Gorham Silversmiths and Taylor & Lord Company along Broadway. These companies were emblematic of America's industrial progress during this era. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back to a different time when horse-drawn carriages ruled the streets and skyscrapers were yet to dominate Manhattan's skyline. It serves as a reminder of how far our beloved city has come while honoring its rich history.
