EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard from 1910 captures a significant landmark in the history of engineering and Latin America - the Panama Canal. The image showcases the cold storage plant of the Commisary Department at Cristobal, located in the Panama Canal Zone. The construction of this iconic canal was an extraordinary feat that revolutionized global trade routes, connecting the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. This turn-of-the-century marvel transformed transportation by providing a shortcut for ships traveling between North and South America. In this photo print, we can observe a building that served as a refrigerator or cold storage facility during those times. It stands as a testament to the ingenuity and foresight required to maintain perishable goods along such an ambitious waterway project. The significance of this postcard extends beyond its historical value; it also represents cultural exchange between Spain and Panama during that era. The Spanish influence is evident in both architectural elements and design choices. As we admire this snapshot from over a century ago, let us appreciate how far we have come since then while acknowledging the incredible achievements made possible by human innovation and collaboration on projects like the Panama Canal.
