EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken by William Davis Hassler in 1915, offers a rare glimpse into the bustling interior of the iconic 95th Street Market in New York City. The image showcases a vibrant scene filled with shoppers eagerly perusing an array of goods on display. Rows upon rows of stalls are adorned with fresh produce, meats, and various other products that cater to the diverse needs of early 20th-century consumers. The market's atmosphere is palpable as customers navigate through the aisles, their faces reflecting a mix of curiosity and determination. This snapshot captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to the significance of markets as communal spaces where people gather to exchange goods and engage in social interactions. Photographed for the United Electric Light and Power Company, this image holds historical importance beyond its aesthetic appeal. It provides valuable insight into daily life during this era while showcasing how electricity was integrated into commercial spaces like markets. Preserved within the collection of the New-York Historical Society, this photograph stands as a reminder of America's rich retail history and its enduring fascination with commerce. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured over a century ago, we are transported back to an era when shopping meant immersing oneself in bustling marketplaces like 95th Street Market - places that were at once vibrant hubs for trade and essential community gathering spots.
