EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1920s, showcases the iconic Queensboro Bridge spanning the East River in New York City, USA. The bridge, a marvel of engineering during the 1920s, connects Queens and Manhattan, two boroughs of the vibrant metropolis. The bridge's distinctive cantilever design, with its gracefully curved piers, is a testament to the ingenuity and innovation of the era. In the foreground, a white ferryboat makes its way beneath the bridge, adding a sense of motion and dynamism to the scene. Blackwell's Island, now known as Welfare Island, can be seen in the background, with its imposing structures and sprawling buildings. The island was once home to several institutions, including a tuberculosis hospital and a workhouse. The East River, a major waterway that runs through the heart of New York City, adds to the photograph's allure, reflecting the bridge's majestic structure and creating a mirror image of the scene on its glassy surface. The Queensboro Bridge, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, remains an enduring symbol of New York City's rich past and vibrant present.
