EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Birmingham in the 1960s. Standing on a temporary bridge over New Street Station, we are treated to a mesmerizing view towards the new Savoy Hotel, with platform 7 visible on the right. The image perfectly captures a moment frozen in time during an era of rapid development and construction. The building site showcases the immense progress being made in this vibrant city, as cranes tower overhead and workers diligently carry out their tasks. It is a testament to human ingenuity and determination. The railway tracks leading into New Street Station remind us of the vital role that transportation played in connecting people across West Midlands. Trains symbolize not only physical travel but also represent dreams, opportunities, and connections waiting to be explored. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene, it's impossible not to feel a sense of nostalgia for days gone by. This photograph evokes memories of simpler times when life moved at a different pace – where commuters hurriedly rushed through these very platforms or paused briefly before embarking on exciting journeys. Preserved by Memory Lane Prints' dedicated staff, this print serves as both an artistic masterpiece and historical artifact. It allows us to reflect upon our past while appreciating how far we have come since that fateful day on March 16th, 1965.
