EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of a transformative era in East Harlem, New York City. Taken by Al Aumuller in 1947, it showcases the construction of the James Weldon Johnson Houses, a housing project spanning from 112th Street to 115th Street between Park Avenue and Third Avenue. From a bird's eye view, one can see the bustling cityscape with its mid-century buildings and infrastructure. The image reveals an elevated train passing through the neighborhood, symbolizing both progress and connectivity for its residents. The construction site itself is a testament to urban development during this time period. A towering crane dominates the skyline as workers diligently build what would become homes for countless families. This ambitious project aimed to address housing needs in East Harlem while revitalizing rundown areas. Despite its historical context, this photograph remains relevant today as it offers us insight into how cities evolve over time. It serves as a reminder of our collective responsibility to provide safe and affordable housing options for all members of society. Preserved by the Library of Congress, this print from Granger Art on Demand allows us to appreciate not only Al Aumuller's artistic talent but also provides valuable documentation of an important chapter in American history.
