#tbt from @nytarchives | In the summer of 1917, before the last of New York City’s horse-drawn trolleys disappeared from its streets, a photographer for @ニューヨーク・タイムズ took this photo of one of the trolleys next to the newfangled thing that had caused its obsolescence: the modern electric car. Horse-drawn cars had been driving on what was known as the Bleecker Street & Fulton Ferry Line — which passed through Greenwich Village — for 53 years before the operators chose to abandon the faltering franchise. The vehicles, a reporter for @ニューヨーク・タイムズ noted, were “dirty old cars” with “faithful horses and husky drivers.” The article went on: “The fact was, nobody would wait for the car, and they wouldn’t ride on it anyway because it was far from clean, comely, or fast, and by walking a short distance in any direction one of the new-fangled cars could be found.” This photo was published in @nytmag a few months after it was taken. By that point, the tracks of the old horse-car line would have been torn up. But as @ニューヨーク・タイムズ wrote in the earlier article: “And the horses — ah! who knows what will becomes of those faithful beasts?” #?
