Where's The Ground? (circa 1930 - Riveters at work on the 55th storey of the Cities Service Building, New York. In the background is the Woolworth Building)
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photograph captures a mesmerizing moment in history as a group of riveters fearlessly hang suspended high above New York City during the construction of the iconic Cities Service Building. With their tools in hand and intense concentration etched on their faces, these brave workers epitomize determination and skill. The vertical format emphasizes both the height they are working at and the sheer scale of this architectural feat. As we gaze upon this image, our eyes are drawn to not only these courageous men but also to one of New York's most recognizable landmarks -the majestic Woolworth Building- standing tall in the background. Taken by General Photographic Agency, this archival print transports us back to an era when skyscrapers were rising rapidly amidst a bustling cityscape. It serves as a powerful reminder of human ingenuity and perseverance in constructing monumental structures that shape our urban landscapes. Intriguingly captured in portrait format, this photo invites us into an intimate glimpse into a pivotal moment for America's construction industry. It symbolizes progress, ambition, and collective effort towards building a brighter future for generations to come.
