EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph takes us back in time to the bustling streets of New York City in the early 1900s. The image showcases the iconic Gilsey House, a grand hotel that opened its doors in 1872. Standing proudly at the corner of Broadway and 29th Street, this neoclassical masterpiece commands attention with its impressive facade. As we delve into the details of this silver gelatin print, we notice horse-drawn carriages passing by, adding an air of nostalgia to the scene. The ground floor is adorned with prominent establishments such as offices for Southern Railway and Thomas Cook Travel, reflecting the importance of transportation and travel during that era. The architectural elements are truly remarkable; a Venetian window catches our eye while a serliana arch frames another section of the building. A balustrade adds elegance to its design, further enhancing its neo-classical charm. This snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to New York's rich history and architectural heritage. Displayed proudly at the Museum of the City of New York, this photograph allows us to immerse ourselves in Manhattan's vibrant past. It serves as a reminder that even amidst modernity's constant evolution, traces of our city's storied past can still be found on every street corner if we take a moment to look closely enough.
