As you may know, the Department of City Records unleashed some 870,000 photos of Manhattan dating back to the mid-1800s. But, no one can access them — the overwhelming demand shut down the site, as BoweryBoogie noted yesterday.
So. While we wait ... check out some photos that Stanley Kubrick (yes, that Stanley Kubrick) took on the NYC subways for LOOK Magazine in 1946...

You can find this photo and several others at the Museum of the City of New York blog.

Thanks for posting this and the link to the story and photos, great stuff!
Surprised to see the women standing. Cane seats, perhaps?
I'm 91% sure I see Lady Gaga.
@JAZ: Ha ha ha!
