    Caption: "Delaware and Hudson R.R. Office Building, Albany, N.Y., Sept. 7, 1934." View of the enormous Gothic building constructed by and for the Delaware and Hudson Railroad Company between 1914-1918. It also housed the offices of the Albany Evening Journal. A small city park sits in front of the building's central tower, surrounded on all sides by a looped street originally intended for trolley cars. The building was gradually abandoned by the businesses within, until purchased in 1973 by the State University of New York (SUNY). SUNY renovated the building for use as its administrative offices, a purpose which it still serves today.

    Date: 9/7/1934
