The Grand Concourse in the Bronx, as depicted in 1946, appears as an impressive thoroughfare, characterized by its wide, multi-lane design and grand scale. Stretching over four miles from East 138th Street to Mosholu Parkway, this 11-lane boulevard was conceived in 1890 and constructed between 1894 and 1909, with an extension added in 1927. The image captures the thoroughfare's role as a major artery, facilitating the movement of traffic through the borough. The presence of apartment buildings lining the concourse also highlights the planned development and urban design of the area during this period. Approx. 11 x 14 inches, Framed
