Reason: This high-quality and color image of 52nd Street from the 1940s (which is pretty rare), shows the city lights as they looked back in 1948. The quality of the kodachrome is also very impressive for it's time.

Oppose – I agree it's too dark. I prefer this B&W photo in the article. The B&W photo is too soft at full size, but it's pixel count is high enough so it's sharp enough when viewed at 50% size (that could be a pass for older/historic photos IMO). Bammesk (talk) 01:26, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
