The Albany Apartment Building, Broadway & 51st, NY, 1876, Original, Hand Colored

A Beautifully Detailed, Original Plan of the The Albany Apartment Building, Corner of Broadway and 51st Street, New York.  HAND-COLORED.  John C Babcock, Architect.  From the American Architect and Building News, December 23, 1876.

This picture is extremely hard to find, as the American Architect and Building News not only had a very small circulation during that time, but very few were actually preserved or colored as this has been.  It measures 13 by 8.75 inches.  Has a mat border and foam core backing (not attached to the picture).  The whole plan measures approximately 16 by 12 inches (with mat border).  Finely detailed and beautifully hand-colored. Shrink wrapped.
