EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken around 1909, captures the stunning rooftop garden and terrace of The New Theatre in New York City. The New Theatre, located in the United States of America, was a popular playhouse during the early 20th century. The image showcases the exterior of the building, with its intricate ironwork and arched windows. The roof garden and terrace offer a breathtaking view of the city, making it an ideal location for social events and entertainment. The design of the roof garden and terrace is attributed to Frances Benjamin Johnston, a renowned American architect and interior designer. Johnston, who is known for her work on numerous historic buildings and gardens, added a touch of elegance to the rooftop space with its lush greenery, winding staircase, and ornate iron railings. The garden's serene atmosphere provides a stark contrast to the bustling city below. The New Theatre's roof garden and terrace were a unique feature for the time and showcased the cultural significance of outdoor spaces in American architecture. The Library of Congress, which houses this photograph, holds a wealth of information on the history of The New Theatre and the design of its rooftop garden. This image is a testament to the enduring allure of the past and the beauty of New York City's architectural heritage.
