Sixty-eight memorable views — Manhattan, neighborhoods; Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Staten Island, harbor. Detail crisp, major sites identified.
These 200+ images show you the spectacular views from hundreds of New York City's finest residences. Everyone loves an amazing view, and some pay millions for a property with views across Central Park, the East River, the Hudson River, or the Midtown skyline. In the jungle of glass, stone, and steel that is New York City, it is impossible to overstate the value of an incredible view. Tauber, a Manhattan-based independent photographer, shot these images over the last decade while shooting New York City's finest properties for real estate firms, architects, interior designers, developers, and magazines. This collection reflects the shimmering pull of New York City views through the seasons, from morning light over Central Park to twilight over the Hudson.
Reproduction of the original: Vistas of New York by Brander Matthews
From its opening in 1854 until the triumph of the automobile sixty years later the railroad was LaFayette's life-line. Nearly everything coming into or going out of the hamlet came by rail. Heavily laden wagons traversed the steep mile-long hill. Furniture or a new piano for the family parlor, vats of kerosene and non perishable goods for LaFayette's general stores and embalmed bodies ready for burial waited in the freight house. By the 1880's farm produce was being shipped in larger and larger quantities, requiring an extra siding for added freight cars. By the 1920's, in addition to its general store and coal shed, Onativia could boast of three feed stores. Seventeen years before the railroad discontinued passenger service, Onativia station closed. Now everything else is gone. This book contains 80 photos that were taken in 1909 and 1910 at the height of the post card era. Collected forty and fifty years ago by the compiler, these views preserve all that we have of Onativia.
