EDITORS COMMENTS
Circa 1924: A glimpse into the bustling streets of New York City's Bowling Green captures a moment in time. Pedestrians gracefully navigate their way through the city, surrounded by architectural marvels that define an era. In the center stands the former Standard Oil Building No. 26 Broadway, proudly displaying its oil lantern on top of the tower. This iconic structure was constructed in 1922 for John D. Rockefeller's renowned company, symbolizing his immense influence and wealth. To the right, we catch a glimpse of the now-demolished Produce Exchange building, once a hub of trade and commerce. The side view of the Custom House peeks into frame, adding to the grandeur and history that permeates this photograph. Edwin Levick masterfully captured this image with precision and artistry. The contrast between light and shadow brings out every intricate detail of design and architecture present in this scene. As we gaze upon this timeless portrait from nearly a century ago, it serves as a reminder of how cities evolve over time while still preserving fragments of their past. It invites us to appreciate not only the beauty found within these structures but also reflect on our own place within history.
