Don’t Look Down

New York City was in a phase of great industrial expansion in the 1960’s. When the Manhattan Company merged with Chase, they needed a new building to operate from. The project would involve over 3000 workers, and in what is now seen as an iconic photograph, all the workers are shown inside the building.
