1982 Photo of Dumbo from the Brooklyn Bridge
February 20th, 2009
Jet Lowe, Photographer, 1982. (Click photo for larger version)
From the Library of Congress archives. The caption of the photo reads “Long distance view looking NW towards Manhattan showing access ramps to bridge. Jet Lowe, photographer, 1982.” The 27 year photo shows a few differences with the facade of 70 Washington Street updated and the addition of the top of 1 Main St building today, but may change in the coming years if Dock Street Dumbo were built and the proposed Verizon building facade is updated across the Brooklyn Bridge in Manhattan.
Thanks das for sending this in.
