EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring construction of the Woolworth Building in 1912. Standing tall on lower Broadway, New York City, this iconic skyscraper was a testament to architectural brilliance and innovation of its time. The image showcases the tower's early stages of development, with workers diligently constructing what would become one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. Photographed by Irving Underhill on July 1st, 1912, this aerial view allows us to witness the transformation taking place in downtown Manhattan. The neo-gothic design of the building is evident even at this early stage, showcasing intricate details that would later define its grandeur. The skyline serves as a backdrop for this snapshot in history - a reminder of how cities evolve and change over time. It represents an era when New York City was rapidly growing and embracing modernity while still preserving elements of its rich architectural heritage. As we gaze upon this photograph today, it transports us back to a moment where progress met artistry. It reminds us that every towering structure has humble beginnings and that behind every magnificent skyline lies countless hours of hard work and dedication. This print from Granger Art on Demand offers us a glimpse into the past - an opportunity to appreciate not only the physical beauty but also the historical significance embedded within these walls.
