EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage postcard captures the essence of Broadway in 1914, showcasing its vibrant energy and bustling atmosphere. As one of New York City's most famous thoroughfares, Broadway is adorned with grand theaters, luxurious hotels, and exquisite restaurants. The focal point of this image is 45th Street, which stands at the very heart of the theatrical district. At nightfall, Broadway transforms into a mesmerizing spectacle as countless electrical signs and brilliant lights illuminate the street. This display earned it the well-deserved title of "The Great White Way". It truly becomes the most brilliantly lighted street in the world during nighttime hours. In this snapshot frozen in time, we witness a diverse crowd strolling along Broadway. Men and women from all walks of life can be seen going about their daily routines amidst towering buildings that define Manhattan's iconic skyline. The presence of pedestrians emphasizes how integral public transportation was to city life back then. Printed by renowned lithograph company Curt Teich Company, this postcard serves as a testament to American artistry and craftsmanship during that era. Preserved within Lake County Museum's collection, it offers us a glimpse into an era long gone but forever etched in history.
