    The second picture shows St. Paul’s Chapel on Broadway and the ninth picture shows Cooper Union’s Foundation Building.

    Thanks for the great photos.

    Streetcars did stay on Manhattan streets until 1948, The El’s with the exception of the 3rd ave closed in 1955 were all down by 1940. 11th Avenue in NYC had street running until the 1930’s when the now a park “High Line” was built. NYC had a very good rail based public transportation system. Too bad it couldn’t survive Robert Moses and Mayor LaGuardia.

      So what’s the most extensive subway system in the world, operating 24 hours a day, 365 days a year? Chopped liver?
