1940s NYC

Street view in 1940 New York City

Why hoard it?

Before Google sent their little car out to take pictures of the street (and embarrass folks just about to shove a sandwich in their mouth) the best way to view streets was literally by standing on the corner of each one and taking a snap. That’s exactly what this site has to offer, super interesting photos from New York in 1940. Enjoy.

Worth hoarding?
