Nostalgic Photos of Bygone Times, NYC Releases Digitized Historic Images

The NYC Municipal Archives Gallery has granted free online access to over 870,000 images digitized from their collections starting today. The images include photographs, maps, videos and audio recordings. These photos were so popular, it crashed the site on the first day, forcing the NYC Municipal Archives Gallery to “beef up” their servers to handle the popularity of the site.
 

The Atlantic compiled 53 spectacular photos so interested folks could view many of most popular the photos of the collection. You’ll be β€˜wowed’ by photos from the 19th and 20th centuries. See light pour into NYC’s Grand Central Station, feel like you’re floating atop the Brooklyn Bridge as bridge repair personnel paint the infamous criss-crossed cables, take a ride on a trolley car circa 1924, and look back at how the world famous NYC skyline appeared decades ago.
