EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Downtown Empire State Express" takes us back to the bustling streets of Syracuse in 1933. The Empire State Express, a symbol of power and progress, stands poised to cross South Salina Street, the heart of this vibrant city's business district. As pedestrians go about their daily routines in the background, automobiles line the streets awaiting their turn to pass. The image captures a moment frozen in time - a collision between two worlds: the modernity of steam-powered locomotives and the ever-evolving urban landscape. The monochromatic composition adds an air of nostalgia and mystery to this historic scene. There is something undeniably strange yet intriguing about witnessing such an unusual sight amidst everyday life. The juxtaposition between towering engines and ordinary people going about their day creates a sense of awe and wonderment. Underwood Archives has masterfully captured this snapshot from history, transporting us back to an era when trains were not just modes of transportation but symbols of progress and adventure. This photograph serves as a reminder that even within our familiar surroundings lie hidden stories waiting to be discovered. As we gaze upon this vintage gem, we are reminded that beneath every seemingly mundane moment lies potential for extraordinary tales – tales that shape cities like Syracuse into what they are today.
