EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph offers a general view of Union Hill, New Jersey, USA, as it appeared around 1905. The scene is captured from the Lauter Building, providing an aerial perspective that showcases the picturesque town nestled in the heart of Bergen County. Union Hill, with its quaint rooftops and architectural diversity, once stood as an independent municipality before merging with West Hoboken in 1925 to form the vibrant and bustling city of Union City. The photograph transports us back to the early 1900s, a time when Union Hill was a thriving community with a rich history. The image reveals a mix of residential and commercial buildings, each with their unique character and charm. The spire of a church or perhaps a water tower can be seen rising above the others, adding an element of grandeur to the scene. The rooftops, dotted with chimneys and skylights, suggest the presence of active households and industries. The intricate details of the buildings' facades, some adorned with ornate brickwork and others displaying simple, functional designs, reflect the diverse population and architectural influences of the time. This photograph is a testament to the history and character of Union Hill during the early 20th century. It invites us to imagine the daily lives of the people who once called this place home, and to appreciate the unique charm of a time long past.
