Manhattan: City Hall Park - [View of upper downtown skyline.]

New York City: A remarkable view of upper downtown skyline from the Northeast showing how completely the Woolworth Building, 60 stories, 792 feet high, dominates its surroundings. At the extreme left is the tower of the Singer Building; alongside the Woolworth is the far less attractive Transportation Building. Far to the right is the New York Telephone Building. The old three cornered building is the old main post office and Federal Building, and the building in the foreground is the City Hall. Sept. 1929 Ewing Galloway
