Hey y’all! Hope you’re all doing well!
I’m making a documentary about searching for my roots, and I’m trying to identify the exact location where this photograph was taken so I can return to the same spot and film it from the same perspective.
I know this is a hard one, the skyline is so foggy but I though I should give it a try anyway.
Here’s what I know so far:
-The photograph was taken sometime between 1968 and 1970.
-Possible locations I’ve considered include a view from the Staten Island Ferry near The Battery, Morton Street Pier, the Lower Manhattan skyline from Governors Island, or a viewpoint from Staten Island or New Jersey.
-I’ve searched the New York Public Library’s digital archives, but I haven’t been able to find a photograph matching both the date and the location.
Any historical references, archival resources, research tools, or suggestions that could help me narrow down the location would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you so much for your help!
