EDITORS COMMENTS
Great image capturing Niagara Street in Buffalo, New York, around 1908. The photograph, taken in black and white using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, showcases the bustling city scene with a focus on the impressive Erie County Savings Bank located at the left side of the image. The architectural style of the bank, with its grand columns and intricate detailing, stands out against the backdrop of the urban landscape. The street is filled with a diverse crowd of people, both men and women, dressed in the fashion of the early 1900s. They go about their daily business, some walking along the sidewalk, while others are gathered in small groups, likely engaged in conversation. The presence of horse-drawn carriages and automobiles on the street adds to the sense of activity and progress. The image also highlights the commercial facilities that line the street, including various stores and businesses. The Erie County Savings Bank, as a financial institution, would have been an important hub for commerce and finance in the community. The bank's prominence in the photograph underscores the economic significance of Buffalo during this time period. This photograph is a valuable historical record of Niagara Street in Buffalo, New York, during the early 1900s. It provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the city's architectural heritage, commercial activity, and the people who lived and worked there. The image is part of the vast collection of the Library of Congress and serves as an enduring testament to the rich history of Buffalo and New York State.
