  1876 (dated)     Description An enormous striking 1876 London Illustrated News bird s-eye view of Manhattan, New York City. The view looks east on Manhattan and Long Island from Bergen Hill, a high point in Hoboken, New Jersey, just across the Hudson River. Manhattan is covered from the Battery to roughly 96th Street. The Reservoir, today the Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis Reservoir, a large pond in Central Park, is evident at the extreme left. Hoboken is evident in the foreground, and in the distance Brooklyn, Williamsburg, and Long Island city are recognizable. Some of the larger buildings, generally church spires, are exaggerated in the vertical. Among these both Trinity Church and St. Paul s Chapel, in the financial district, stand out. The Hudson River, East River, and New York Harbor are busy with maritime traffic, including ferries, commercial ships, and sailing yachts. The view predates the construction of any major bridges across the Hudson or East Rivers.
