This print takes us back to the bustling streets of New York City in 1868. The image showcases the impressive architecture of the Demilt Dispensary, a prominent institution incorporated in 1851. Located at the corner of Second Avenue and Twenty Third Street, this building stands as a testament to both American ingenuity and architectural prowess. As we delve into the details captured by this wood engraving, we see men and women strolling along the sidewalk, their elegant attire reflecting the fashion trends of that era. A horse-drawn carriage passes by on a nearby street while railroad tracks hint at the city's growing transportation network.
