EDITORS COMMENTS
NYC: CONSTRUCTION, 1937. A snapshot of bustling activity on 6th Avenue in New York City during a time of great change. In this print by Arthur Rothstein, we are transported back to the early days of construction and development in the heart of Manhattan. The image captures a scene filled with energy and movement as workers labor diligently amidst the chaos. A towering crane looms overhead, symbolizing progress and ambition. The street is lined with scaffolds and signs indicating ongoing projects, while an employment agency teems with hopeful job seekers looking for opportunities to escape the grip of the Great Depression. Rothstein's lens skillfully frames this moment in history, showcasing not only the physical transformation taking place but also capturing the spirit and resilience of those who faced unemployment head-on. The storefronts serve as a backdrop to this vibrant tableau, reflecting both struggle and determination. This photograph from The Granger Collection allows us to witness firsthand how New York City was shaped by its people during one of its most challenging eras. It serves as a reminder that even in times of adversity, human ingenuity can prevail.
