Photos of New York from 1885-1970’s

June 23rd, 2008

This forum thread at Wired New York has an amazing amount of (mostly) black and white photographs showcasing the growth of New York from 1885, the early days of film-based photography, all the way to the 1970’s. It’s a great way to absorb what many say is the greatest city mankind has ever seen — New York.

    Absolutely incredible set of photographers. It’s amazing to see a twenty year transformation from horses to cars.
    It must have been some culture shock.
