Taylor, Frank H. (Frank Hamilton), 1846-1927 |
Title |
At Six O'Clock |
Date |
ca. 1916 |
Description |
View of the Philadelphia skyline at night in 1916. City Hall is clearly visible to the left of the image. |
Notes |
The heart of the city presents, on a winter evening, a wonderful picture of towering office buildings aglow with lights from
a thousand windows. This sketch, made from the roof of the new Bell Telephone Building, suggests the power and ambitions
fo the new Philadelphia, which has, within a few years, so shut in a dwarfed our once dominant City Hall.
