The last one is Kittyhawk, North Carolina, not New York. But this is a truly great set of photographs

Really nice collection of pictures.
However i don't get why there's a nazi-swastika on one of the zappelins?
Can someone explain?

richard,

There's a swastika on the zeppelin because there was a functioning airship route between Frankfurt, Germany and New York City (or more precisely Lakehurst, I believe) during the 1920's and 30's. During that period the German Luftschiffbau Zeppelin GmbH constructed a "Luftshiff" or airship for the US. It was the technological flagship (how fitting in this context :D ) of the Third Reich. The voyage was quicker than by boat (81 hours) and was popular among high society.
Hope I could help ;)

Very nice pics by the way! I really wonder how many workers died while building those skyscrapers...
