EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the grandeur of Pennsylvania Station's main concourse in New York City between 1900 and 1920. The Beaux-Arts architectural masterpiece, designed by architects McKim, Mead & White, was a marvel of its time, showcasing intricate interior decoration and design. The main concourse, filled with natural light filtering through the large glass skylight, was a bustling hub of activity, with passengers from all walks of life making their way through the station to catch their trains. The photograph, featuring an exit sign and various architectural details, such as the intricately designed ceiling and the ornate columns, offers a glimpse into the rich history of transportation in America during the early 20th century. The Pennsylvania Railroad Company's Detroit Publishing Company produced this silver gelatin glass transparency, which showcases the company's commitment to preserving the heritage of this iconic building. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and importance of Pennsylvania Station during its heyday, before the station was demolished in the mid-1960s. It is now part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress, serving as a reminder of the architectural and historical significance of this once-great railway station.
