EDITORS COMMENTS
. This photo print, captured in the 1920s by Underwood Archives, transports us back to a time of ambition and determination. Against the backdrop of a clear daytime sky, two men embark on an extraordinary journey across the Hudson River towards Lower Manhattan. Their rowboat proudly displays the American flag as its bowsprit head, symbolizing their patriotic spirit. As we delve deeper into this historical snapshot, our eyes are drawn to the iconic skyscrapers that dominate Manhattan's skyline. The Woolworth Building stands tall on the left side, commanding attention with its grandeur. To its right looms another architectural marvel - the Singer Building with its distinctive round dome. And just south of it lies the imposing double Equitable Building. This image not only captures a moment in time but also showcases New York City's relentless pursuit of progress and urban development during this era. It serves as a reminder of how transportation played a crucial role in shaping cities like Manhattan. With vintage charm emanating from every detail, this photograph invites us to reflect upon our own journeys towards success and reminds us that even humble beginnings can lead to great heights in life's skylines.
