General
Information on the archive
The
photographs of building in New York City are part of the
virtual
reality cityprogram.
Most of the property photographs listed here were shot between March
and July 2001. Each link below contains anywhere from 20 to 700
thumbnail photographs. Some images are shown rotated at 90 degrees in
order to save space on the thumbnail page. The full size of each
property photograph is about 1 megapixel (which is not presently
on-line, but is sent to you after purchase either as an email file or
print or on a cd-rom). For pricing information and terms for
magazines and newspapers, please read our
terms
of use page.
If you do not see what you are looking for, please contact us by email
or telephone since we have far more images of each of these
properties and other properties than what is available here on the
net. In many cases, multiple photographs, such as night, winter,
summer and other images were taken of each property. A large
collection of still and video images photographed between 1985 and
1986, depicting buildings and street life on the upper East Side,
upper West Side, Harlem and Washington Heights is also available,
though not yet on-line. For details on this older collection, please email
us. The thumbnail photographs shown on-line are not necessarily the
best photograph that we have available. When purchasing, if your
photographic need is not absolutely time dependent, you may wish to
contact us so that we may provide you with the best possible image
available for the particular property. We are in the process of
improving the index and search capability. We recognize that
presently it may be difficult for you to find a particular image
on-line since each link contains a continuous stream of EVERY
BUILDING on a particular side of a street from one section to another
(for example: the every property on the north side of 34 Street from
Fifth Avenue to the FDR). We are working to improve the index. Soon,
you will soon be able to search by address or block and lot or by
clicking on a detailed map. If you can not locate a property, please
send an email for our prompt
assistance in locating an image for the property. We can also provide
you with
custom
photographs on short notice.To
search this page by a single keyword
or phrase, press the Ctrl and the F key at the same time. After the
individual thumbnail images appear on your computer screen, you will
have to scroll across and down the page until you find the property
that you are seeking. Be sure to use the BACK and FORWARD
