Workplace Safety, 1926
Seen here are painters atop the Woolworth Building in New York City in 1926. The Woolworth Building at 233 Broadway in Manhattan was designed by architect Cass Gilbert and was completed in 1913. At 241.4 m (792 ft) in height, it remains one of the fifty tallest buildings in the United States, even after a century. Not only that, but it is also one of the oldest skyscrapers in the United States and was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1966. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woolworth_Building  · |

They even all still have their hats. I lose mine going up a flight of stairs.  |
