EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captured in 1956 showcases a significant moment in New York City's history. Titled "NYC: PROTEST, 1956" the image depicts members of the Lincoln Square Residents Committee standing united against the proposed Lincoln Square Renewal Project. The committee vehemently opposed this project as it entailed demolishing tenement housing to make way for the iconic Lincoln Center. Photographed by Phil Stanziola, this snapshot encapsulates the spirit of activism and community engagement during that era. A diverse group of men and women can be seen lining up along an exterior building wall, holding picket signs high above their heads. Their determination is palpable as they express their dissent through peaceful protest. Amidst this powerful scene, one cannot help but notice a young American baby nestled comfortably in a pram nearby. This innocent presence serves as a poignant reminder that these protests were not just about buildings or projects; they were about protecting communities and preserving heritage for future generations. The identity of those participating remains unidentified, emphasizing how ordinary citizens came together to fight for what they believed was right. This print from Granger Art on Demand offers us an authentic glimpse into mid-century Manhattan and highlights the resilience of its residents when faced with challenges to their neighborhood.
