Summary

An 1881 photograph of the The Edison Machine Works located on Goerck Street, Manhattan by Edison employee Charles L. Clarke.

The Edison Machine Works was a manufacturing company set up to produce dynamos, large electric motors, and other components of the electrical illumination system being built by Thomas A. Edison in New York City in the 1880s.

This section of lower east Manhattan was cleared in the 1950s to make way for the large Baruch Houses housing project so the building and Goerck Street itself no longer exists.
