EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the east facade of Pennsylvania Station in New York City, captured between 1910 and 1920. The image, from the Keystone Archives at the Library of Congress, showcases the grandeur and industrial might of the era. The station, designed by architects McKim, Mead & White, was a marvel of its time, boasting a Beaux-Arts design with intricate details and ornate decorations. The photograph, taken using a dry plate glass negative, measures 8 x 10 inches, and was likely produced by the Detroit Publishing Company or one of its affiliates. The image offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to an era of bustling activity and progress. The railroad station, with its impressive arches and columns, stands as a testament to the country's industrial heritage and the role of rail transport in shaping the nation. Pennsylvania Station, located in the heart of New York City, was a major transportation hub, connecting the East Coast with the Midwest and beyond. The station, which served as the primary railroad terminal in New York City until its demolition in 1963, was a symbol of the city's vibrant transportation network and its role as a gateway to the rest of the country. This photograph is an essential addition to any collection of historical images of America's architectural and industrial heritage. It offers a unique perspective on a bygone era, inviting us to reflect on the past and the role that transportation infrastructure played in shaping the country we know today.
