Title: McCarthy Album 11, Photograph 231
Description: Caption: "Trinity Church, Wall Street. Aug. 29, 1934. New York City." The 281-foot-high steeple of Trinity Church spears the sky between two tall buildings on New York City's Wall Street in this photograph. The church, dedicated in 1846, was the third church built at the site. Designed by Richard Upjohn when the second Trinity Church had to be replaced due to structural issues, the present church is one of the earliest examples of Gothic Revival or Neo-Gothic architecture in the nation. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1976.
Contributor: Audrey Fullerton-Samora of Sacramento, great niece of William and Grace McCarthy, donated the William M. McCarthy Photograph Collection to the California State Archives in 1996.
