EDITORS COMMENTS
. This black and white aerial photograph, taken by Edwin Levick in circa 1925, offers a mesmerizing glimpse into the bustling industrial area of Brooklyn. Suspended above an expansive highway, elevated train tracks carve their way through this vibrant landscape, serving as a lifeline for transportation and commerce. As we explore this snapshot frozen in time, our eyes are drawn to the towering billboards that punctuate the skyline. These advertising giants proudly showcase products and services from an era long gone but not forgotten. Alongside them stand factories, symbols of relentless industry and progress. The railway vehicle car road below is abuzz with activity - cars zipping along its lanes while trains gracefully glide on parallel tracks above. This harmonious coexistence between different modes of transport symbolizes the city's ceaseless motion towards growth and development. Beyond mere infrastructure lies a deeper narrative within this frame. The image encapsulates both residential districts and commercial hubs intertwined seamlessly—a testament to how people lived alongside industries that shaped their lives. In every corner of this print lies echoes of America's past—of ambition, innovation, and resilience. It serves as a reminder that cities like Brooklyn have always been at the forefront of progress; they are living organisms constantly evolving with time. Edwin Levick's masterful composition captures not just a moment frozen in history but also invites us to reflect upon our own journey through time—an invitation
