Mappa New York 1879

Mappa New York 1879. Some buildings come and go, but streets and parks of a major metropolis tend to stay unchanged over time. This is New York, or rather Manhattan, sans-traffic! These streets were filled with horses and carriages. All the piers were busy with commerce from all countries in the world. Steamers, windjammers, transatlantic vessels carrying immigrants as well as the Fin-de-Si̬cle Jet-Set. This city is all about blending cultures, styles, people Walk your favorite walk, find out what changed, delight in distinguishing old from new. Loiter, cross, turn a corner, stay linger.
