1970s New York was a city of infinite contrast as well as unending possibility. Grimy, graffiti-marred subway cars rumbled under litter-strewn neighborhoods where unemployment rates reached epic proportions and crime was at an all-time high.

The photographs were all taken in or around Macy’s 34th Street in Manhattan, New York City, just before Christmas in 1979.
