EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grandeur of Broad Street North leading up to City Hall in Philadelphia, circa 1900. The image, taken by an American photographer from the 20th century, showcases the architectural marvel that is City Hall - a true testament to Second Empire French style design. City Hall stands proudly as the largest municipal building in the world at that time, boasting a towering structure built entirely from un-reinforced free-masonry. Its magnificent bell tower reaches towards the sky, making it a prominent national monument and symbol of civic pride. The photo provides a glimpse into Philadelphia's rich history and serves as a visual reminder of its impressive past. It transports us back to an era where horse-drawn carriages traversed these streets and bustling crowds filled every corner. Preserved within the archives of the Philadelphia History Museum at Atwater Kent, this print offers viewers an opportunity to appreciate both its artistic value and historical significance. As we gaze upon this remarkable scene frozen in time, we can't help but be captivated by its timeless beauty. With no restrictions on usage due to being out of copyright, this photograph continues to inspire generations with its depiction of one of America's most iconic landmarks.
