Manhattan: Broadway - Barclay Street

Broadway, west side, from Barclay Street to Park Place, showing the Woolworth Building at this location. Note the constructional details atop the tower in both views. The smaller view is obviously in a northward direction from the old Western Union Building and includes the spire of St. Pauls Chapel and the old Astor House in the foreground. At the right is the old U.S. Post Office with a glimpse of the City Hall above same. The 13 story Emigrant Industrial Bank rises above the latter. 1912-3 International News Service (larger view) Gift of Urbrock Collection REPRODUCTION RIGHTS UNKNOWN Gift of Urbrock Collection View 1 : NEG.# 4620 View 2 : NEG.# 4614
