Harlem's City College of New York is the oldest college in the CUNY system, established in 1847.

This vintage photograph from 1908 shows Shepard Hall, a neo-gothic masterpiece based on a cathedral plan, the largest building and centerpiece of the campus.

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.
