EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling streets of New York City's Upper West Side circa 1914. The image showcases the iconic Ansonia Building, a true architectural gem designed by duBoy and Graves and completed in 1904. Standing tall at the corner of Broadway and 72nd Street, this magnificent structure was originally known as the Ansonia Hotel but has since been converted into luxurious apartments. In this snapshot frozen in history, we witness a vibrant urban scene filled with life. The streets are teeming with activity as both male and female pedestrians navigate their way through the cityscape. A stylish American motorcar adds an element of modernity to this vintage setting, symbolizing progress and innovation. The grandeur of the Ansonia Building commands attention, its ornate details standing out against the backdrop of a rapidly evolving metropolis. This photograph encapsulates not only a moment in time but also represents an era when architecture played a crucial role in shaping cities like New York. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Hulton Archive's collection, we can't help but be transported back to early 20th-century America—a time when residential buildings were more than just structures; they were symbols of aspiration and dreams realized within concrete walls.
