Panorama Water Front and Brooklyn Bridge from East River - 1903

Special Thanks to TigerRocket May 9, 1903 Edison Manufacturing Co. This film depicts a panoramic view facing west of the East River shoreline and the piers of lower Manhattan starting at about Pier 5 (the New York Central Pier) opposite Broad Street, and extending north to the Mallory Line steamship piers just south of Fulton Street and the Brooklyn Bridge. NOTE: This film viewed along with "Skyscrapers of New York City, from the North River" constitutes a complete sweep around the southern tip of Manhattan.
