EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Elevated Railroad Structure at 110th Street in New York City, USA, taken around the year 1905. At an impressive height of 73 feet above the bustling streets, this structure marks the highest point of the elevated network in the city. The intricate design of the viaduct is a marvel of engineering from the early 1900s, with its raised tracks, girders, and subtly curved lines creating an elegant and dynamic silhouette against the sky. The Elevated Railroad, also known as the El or Elevated El, was a vital part of New York City's public transportation system during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. It provided an essential alternative to the congested streets below, allowing commuters to bypass the heavy traffic and reach their destinations more efficiently. The El was a testament to the city's forward-thinking approach to urban development and its commitment to improving transportation infrastructure. This photograph, taken by the skilled lens of Pharcide, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when the El was a symbol of progress and innovation in New York City. The image captures the essence of the era, with the elevated structure standing proudly against the backdrop of the cityscape, embodying the spirit of the United States' industrial might and ingenuity.
