This 1910 postcard captures the grandeur of the second Madison Square Garden, located at Madison Avenue and 26th Street in New York City. Designed by the legendary Stanford White and completed in 1890, this opulent structure featured a rooftop garden, theater, and the main arena where everything from boxing matches to circuses took place. At the time this card was sent, the building was a symbol of New York’s cultural and sporting life, towering over Madison Square Park with its iconic statue of Diana perched high above. The postcard offers a glimpse into the city’s vibrant past, just a few years before the building was demolished in 1925.
This postcard would look great framed, make a wonderful hostess gift, or make an excellent addition to any collection.
