EDITORS COMMENTS
Newspaper Row, New York City, ca. 1900: A Photchrom View of an Industrial Hub of Journalism and Publishing Newspaper Row, located on Park Row in Lower Manhattan, New York City, was once the heart of the newspaper industry in the United States during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This photchrom print, created around 1900, offers a glimpse into the bustling scene of this historic district. The image showcases a collection of impressive office buildings that housed various newspapers and publishing companies. Among them, the Detroit Publishing Company, founded by William A. Livingstone and Edwin H. Husher, stands tall with its distinctive red-brick facade and steeple. The Detroit Publishing Company was a leading publisher of photomechanical prints and postcards during this era. The scene unfolds on a crisp, sunny day, with clear blue skies and vibrant colors that bring the scene to life. The industrial character of the area is evident in the brick and stone structures, while the contrasting greenery of the park adds a touch of natural beauty to the urban landscape. The Congressional Library, now known as the Library of Congress, is also visible in the background, further emphasizing the significance of this area as a hub for knowledge and information dissemination. This photchrom print is a testament to the rich history of the newspaper industry and the pivotal role Newspaper Row played in shaping the media landscape of America during the 1900s. The image invites us to explore the past and appreciate the evolution of the industry that continues to shape our world today.
