The Tombs, New York City Prison, 1904

The Tombs is the colloquial name for the Manhattan Detention Complex a municipal jail in Lower Manhattan at 125 White Street, as well as the nickname for three previous city-run jails in the former Five Points neighborhood of lower Manhattan. The original Tombs, officially known as the Halls of Justice, was built in 1838 in the Egyptian Revival style. It was a replacement for the colonial era Bridewell Prison, located in today's City Hall Park. The new structure incorporated material from the Bridewell (built in 1735 and demolished in 1838), mainly granite, to save money. Photograph shows Tombs II, 1902-1941, City Prison. Photograph from 1904 Shows the Tombs, built in 1902, with Centre Street at right taken by A. Loeffler, Tompkinsville, NY.
