EDITORS COMMENTS
. Step back in time to the vibrant cityscape of Chicago in 1899 with this photo print. Captured by Granger, NYC / The Granger Collection, this remarkable image offers a rare glimpse into the turn-of-the-century charm that once graced State Street. As you peer into the photograph, your eyes are immediately drawn to the bustling scene unfolding before you. Horse-drawn carriages and wagons navigate through a sea of pedestrians on the sidewalk while an elegant tramcar glides along its tracks. The street is alive with activity as people from all walks of life traverse their way through this thriving metropolis. The late afternoon sun casts long shadows across the buildings and awnings lining both sides of State Street. It paints a picture-perfect backdrop for capturing moments frozen in time – a snapshot that encapsulates an era when mass transit was still evolving and horse-drawn transportation coexisted with early automobiles. This print not only captures architectural details but also showcases the spirit and energy that defined Chicago at the cusp of modernization. It serves as a testament to how far we have come while reminding us to appreciate our rich history. Hang this piece on your wall or display it proudly on your desk, allowing yourself to be transported back in time whenever you gaze upon it. Let it serve as a reminder of how cities evolve over centuries yet retain their unique character
