I am surprised that nobody has posted pics of the subway when it was constructed.

A little piece of history of Lower Manhattan:

1906; Broadway & Cortlandt:

1909; Broadway & Cortlandt, with the Singer Tower and the City Investing Bldg. (both 1908):
(Note: The Building on the corner is the same as in the previous picture. I think it was demolished at a later date, and replaced by another piece of City Investing Bldg. :P But I'm not sure 'cause I can't find any pictures of this corner from a later date. So if anyone ever finds one of the 50's or 60's, please post it)

1912; A little to the south of the previous pictures, with Trinity Bldg. (1904) and US Realty Bldg. (1907) in the front. At the bottom of the picture is probably the building site for the Equitable Bldg (1915).:

Not to long ago, from the Twin Towers. One Liberty Plaza (1973) is were the Singer Tower & City Investing Bldg. used to be. Trinity & US Realty Buildings tot the right:
