Description
English: The Port of New York. Bird's eye view from the Battery, looking south.

Second state of Currier & Ive's striking view of New York Harbor, updated to include the Statue of Liberty.

In the foreground, a bustling Battery Park appears, surrounded by a rich tapestry of sailing ships and steamships.

On the right, the map stretches out to show Brooklyn and Governor's Island, with Lower Manhattan Bay in the distance.
