What's your favorite thing about this building? No. 83 Ashland Pl, #Brooklyn.
@BrownstoneDetec They can be vulnerable to sagging, as is visible in the pic. Being carpenters, maybe they made the doors and the large panes were marketing. Or they're reused from a client's building. Both would be normal.
@BrownstoneDetec Everything! What a fantastic building, and a wonderful image.

@BrownstoneDetec Loving that second floor door leading to nowhere but down. Also love seeing for whom Hoyt Street is (possibly) named.

@BrownstoneDetec I see trees all over it! But it looks like a Second Empire
@BrownstoneDetec Technically anything built from 1837 to 1901 is “Victorian era”. But this is not a “Victorian” if it dates to the Civil War era.
@BrownstoneDetec Isn’t this part of “that servant problem” that society saw at the 1900? We transitioned to servants after slaves and then Industrial Revolution kept replacing people.
Greetings from New York! Took my 1980’s SilverReed typewriter on a trip and captured my Empire State Building artwork in front of the real thing!

There you go @BrownstoneDetec - We are looking South. Thank you @TedGrunewald
@afinelyne The aerial is looking south from atop the Latting Observatory—which stood on the north side of 42nd St. opposite the Crystal Palace. Here's a view looking east from 6th ave in the collection of NYPL. The Crystal Palace stood on the site of Bryant Park *west* of the reservoir.

Roger is saying that the view is looking south from 42nd St at 5th & 6th Avenues. I would guess looking South, since the 'beyond' sort of looks like New York Harbor. right? The Hudson on your right/East River at left.
Wow!!! What is the vantage point supposed to be?!?
