A random shot from an anti-aircraft battery, whose gunners accidentally let go with eight shells in the New York metropolitan area on March 13, 1942, hit the Equitable Building in the financial district in lower Manhattan. The shell hit the corner (center foreground), about 400 feet above the street, between the 37th and 38th floors, chipping the corner stonework just above the ledge and knocking loose a small piece of the cornice just below the ledge.

Spotlights illuminated the night operation of placing of a 40-foot English elm on the tiny lawn surrounding St. Patrick’s Cathedral, October 18, 1939. A dozen skilled tree movers placed the giant elm, with three more trees planted on the Fifth Avenue side of the cathedral the next day. They all matched trees that line the avenue in front of Rockefeller Center, across the street.

The wife of Bruno Richard Hauptmann, the man convicted and sentenced to death for the kidnap and murder of the Lindbergh baby, appeared before a wildly demonstrative crowd in Yorkville, the heart of the city’s German section, February 27, 1935. She asked for funds to appeal her husband’s conviction. In response, a box two feet square was stuffed nearly a foot deep with bills, but the amount raised was not announced.
