EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1905, captures the bustling scene at Adams Square in Boston, Massachusetts. The image, created by an unknown photographer, showcases the architectural beauty of the era with the prominent Ames Building, located on the left side of the square. The Ames Building, also known as the Ames Department Store, was a prominent retail establishment in the city and is depicted here with its ornate facade and large glass windows. The square itself is filled with activity, as people go about their daily business. The plaza is dotted with horse-drawn carriages and streetcars, adding to the urban atmosphere. In the background, the imposing Congressional Library can be seen, a testament to the city's rich cultural heritage. The photograph was taken using a dry plate negative process, a popular photographic technique of the early 20th century. The image is now part of the collection of the Library of Congress, a national treasure trove of American history and culture. Sadly, the Ames Building, a beloved landmark of Boston, was demolished in the mid-20th century. This photograph serves as a reminder of the city's past, a time when horse-drawn carriages and streetcars were a common sight, and the Ames Building was a thriving retail destination. The image also showcases the architectural beauty of the era, with its intricate details and grandeur, making it a valuable addition to any collection of American history and heritage art.
