This photograph shows the Long Island Rail Road station at Lynbrook, a village in Nassau County on the South Shore of Long Island. Its record places the picture sometime between 1910 and 1930, a period when the railroad was carrying growing numbers of commuters from the island's south shore into New York City and the surrounding villages were expanding around their stations. The print is part of the Wittemann Collection in the Library of Congress Prints and Photographs Division. Stations like this one were often the most visible civic buildings in their communities, so the structure itself, along with its platform and surroundings, offers a view of how daily commuting and small-town life intersected in that era.
