This vintage photograph, published by the Detroit Publishing Company in 1905, shows the Financial District's Broad Street, looking North towards Wall St. For reference, here is how the same view looks today. Only 3 of the buildings seen in this photo are still around today: The New York Stock Exchange, the Federal Hall National Memorial, and the Broad Exchange Building.

This photo is in the public domain in the United States. This applies to U.S. works where the copyright has expired, often because its first publication occurred prior to January 1, 1923. See this page for further explanation.
