Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from One Man´s View This story can be said to date, though quite in the sense that a story legitimately may. It is historic, though that is not to say old fashioned. If one searches by internal evidence for the time of its writing, 1889 might be a safe guess. It was about then that many Londoners (besides the American girls in the story) were given their first glimpse of Niagara at the Panorama near Victoria Street. The building is a motor garage now; it lies beneath the cliffs of Queen Anne´s Mansions; aeroplanes may rediscover its queer round roof. And it was in an ageing past too - for architectural ages veritably flash by in New York - that Broadway could be said to spread into the "brightness of Union Square." To-day there is but a chaos of dingy decay owning to that name. Soon it will be smart skyscrapers, no doubt; when the tide of business has covered it, as now the tide of fashion leaves it derelict. Duluth, too, with its "store-keepers spitting on wooden sidewalk"! Duluth foresees a Lake Front that will rival Chicago.
