See this Starbucks coffee and NY Times? What’s interesting is that this Starbucks is in the lobby of a building on Park Row, right next to the original NY Times which was in the building starting in 1889.
Park Row, across from City Hall, is where many NY newspapers were in the 1800s – The Times, The Sun, The Tribune, The Herald. Most buildings are gone now.
The newspapers eventually moved uptown. The Times to Times Square, The Herald to Herald Square and The Sun just a block away, into the old A.T. Stewart Dry Goods Store which moved there in 1846. The Sun took the building over in 1917.
The clocks are still on the corners of the building. It’s hard to read it all but they say, “The Sun. It shines for all.”
The Times building is the light color building on the left.
The entrance to The Sun building, still there at 280 Broadway (the building, not the newspaper).
The Sun building today.
Newsboys. 100 years ago.
“The Sun. It shines for all.” These clocks are still on each corner of the building today.
Joseph Pulitzer’s World building, The Sun (the small building), The Tribune and the Times.
