1950

This photo was shot in NYC Circa 1950, where a steelworker walks fearlessly across a girder high above the city, a quiet moment of focus amidst the dangerous work of building skyscrapers.

This image captures the courage and everyday risk taken by the men who shaped our modern skylines. Their hands-on grit and a sense of balance were all that stood between them and the streets far below.
