View of the Morgan Library Seen From 36th Street, after the Alexander P. Morgan Expansion

Schell Lewis's drawing depicts the exterior of the Morgan Library along 36th Street after the 1960 Alexander P. Morgan expansion of the Morgan's campus. At left is Benjamin Wistar Morris's Annex building, which housed a reading room and exhibition gallery, and at right, Pierpont Morgan's 1906 Library constructed by McKim, Mead, and White. A newly expanded, two-story passage connects the two buildings. This element of Alexander Morgan's campaign was removed during the 2006 Renzo Piano expansion project.
