""The Greatest Street In The World: The Story Of Broadway, Old And New, From The Bowling Green To Albany"" by Stephen Jenkins is a comprehensive exploration of the history and evolution of Broadway, one of the most iconic streets in the world. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which covers a different section of Broadway, from its origins in the 17th century to its present-day status as a bustling commercial and cultural hub. Jenkins delves into the architecture, landmarks, and personalities that have shaped Broadway over the centuries, from the early Dutch settlers who laid out the street to the wealthy industrialists who built grand mansions along its route. He also examines the various waves of immigration that have transformed Broadway into a vibrant melting pot of cultures, and the role that Broadway has played in the development of American theater and popular culture. Throughout the book, Jenkins weaves together historical research with personal anecdotes and observations, creating a vivid and engaging portrait of this legendary street. Whether you are a New Yorker or a visitor to the city, ""The Greatest Street In The World"" offers a fascinating glimpse into the history and character of one of the world's most famous thoroughfares.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
