EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Southern Building, located at the intersection of 15th and K Streets in Washington, D.C. between 1910 and 1920. The building, which served as offices for the Southern Railway, stands proudly against the backdrop of the early 20th century American landscape. With its grand exterior, the Southern Building is a testament to the industrial prowess and architectural innovation of the era. The photograph, taken as a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, captures the building's intricate details, from the ornate windows to the decorative cornices and columns. The image is a precious piece of history, offering a glimpse into the past when the railroad industry played a significant role in shaping the country's economic and social landscape. The Southern Railway Company, established in 1894, was a major player in the rail transport sector, connecting various parts of the United States, including the South and Midwest. The company's Washington, D.C. offices, housed in this impressive building, were likely a hub of activity, with important decisions being made that would impact the railway's operations and the nation as a whole. Today, the Southern Building stands as a reminder of the rich history of the United States, a time when the railways were the lifeblood of the country's transportation network. This photograph, taken by an unknown photographer, is a valuable addition to any collection of American history or architectural heritage.
