This 1905 shot of Herald Square is much different than what it looks like today. You can see square's namesake, the original New York Herald Building, the Elevated 6th Avenue IRT line, old horse carts and early automobiles, along with hundreds of classy, well dressed pedestrians.

You can even see down Broadway to the original New York Times Building on 42nd St, off in the distance. For reference, here is the Google Streetview from this angle today.

Good afternoon! Wishing you a happy Monday, July 29th, 2019 from all of us at Viewing NYC!

Here's what the weather looks like in the City right now.

In this film from one of our favorite local video producers Chris Ming Ryan and his company Wheelhouse Communications, learn all about Philip Carlson, the New York City talent scout and agent that discovered Philip Seymour Hoffman, Claire Danes, Billy Crudup, Liev Schreiber, Idris Elba and more.

He was a manager then agent for nearly 30 years based in New York City at small agencies. […] After my friend […] gave me Phil's book […] I asked to meet with Phil to record some of his stories. […] Phil's lifetime work of finding raw talent before anyone else and then standing by that person through thick and thin struck a chord. […] Phil's incredible nose for talent, his loyalty and his dedication to actors comprise a story that I'm thrilled to tell.
