EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the bustling interior of Penn Station in New York City, circa 1942. Captured by photographer Marjory Collins, this image showcases the grandeur of one of America's most iconic transportation hubs. As we gaze upon this snapshot from the past, we are transported to a different era. The architecture is awe-inspiring, with its intricate details and soaring ceilings that seem to touch the sky. People dressed in their finest attire can be seen walking up and down the stairs, waiting for their trains or simply taking in the vibrant atmosphere. The diversity of travelers is evident as men and women from all walks of life coexist within these walls. Each person carries their own story - businessmen rushing off to important meetings, families embarking on exciting adventures, soldiers bidding farewell before heading off to war. Amidst the hustle and bustle, there is an air of anticipation and excitement that permeates throughout Penn Station. It serves as a gateway not only to various destinations but also symbolizes hope for a brighter future. This remarkable photograph captures a moment frozen in time – a testament to both human connection and architectural marvels that have stood tall for decades. As we admire this piece of history through Marjory Collins' lens, we cannot help but feel grateful for those who came before us; shaping our cities into what they are today while leaving behind traces of their journeys within these hallowed halls.
