EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back to the late 19th century, offering a glimpse into the bustling cityscape of New York. The image showcases the iconic Croton Reservoir, standing proudly on Murray Hill between 40th and 42nd Streets at Fifth Avenue. This historic reservoir would later make way for the magnificent New York Public Library that now graces this very spot. The photograph captures the architectural grandeur of the Croton Reservoir, with its impressive exterior design reflecting turn-of-the-century American architecture. The skyline in the background adds depth to the scene, reminding us of how much has changed over time. As we gaze upon this scenic view frozen in time, we can't help but marvel at how far our cities have evolved since then. It serves as a reminder of our rich history and how these landmarks shape our urban landscapes. This print from Granger Art on Demand transports us back to an era when horse-drawn carriages roamed these streets and gas lamps illuminated their surroundings. It allows us to appreciate both the beauty of this historical moment and reflect upon how it paved the way for what stands there today - a symbol of knowledge and culture: The New York Public Library.
