The Westchester County Court House in White Plains, New York, is the subject here, a building that has served as the seat of county government for well over a century. White Plains was the site of a Revolutionary War battle in October 1776, and by the early twentieth century it had grown into the commercial center of the county north of New York City. Photographs like this one, made around 1917, were often produced for the U.S. Copyright Office as deposit records of architecture, so the image documents the building's exterior as it looked in that period. The original caption card is described in the catalog as unverified, so details such as the exact photographer and vantage point should be read with that caution in mind.
