Tudor City Rising
Today, a fun time-lapse series of photos showing the first two Tudor City buildings ‒ Prospect Tower and the Manor ‒ on the rise.
The tiny Tudor City rental cottage (bottom right corner) was nestled rather precariously beside the looming skyscraper.
May 6, 1927. No. 45 and the Manor will open several months later, on Sept. 30.
