This is an original 1903 black and white halftone print of Trinity Church in Manhattan, New York City. It was the third structure to be built on the site after the first two were destroyed in a fire and torn down, respectively. It is a great example of Gothic Revival architecture, designed by Richard Upjohn. During the September 11, 2001, attacks, a giant sycamore on the church grounds was struck by debris. Its roots were used to make a bronze sculpture that is there to this day.

Period Paper is excited to present a collection of prints that depict the famous Big Apple, New York City, in a myriad of historical images that date back to 1903 and the turn of the century. From Wall Street to 100th and Central Park to Battery, from the Brooklyn Bridge to Columbia University, each image provides invaluable insight into the history of many of New York's most iconic buildings in the aftermath of the industrial revolution. The majority of buildings are located in Manhattan and Brooklyn, and one certainly doesn't have to be from the Five Boroughs to appreciate these pieces of American history.
