Taken in 1919, this photo shows employees of the New York Central Railroad at a celebration in Victory Way. Victory Way was set up on Park Avenue to raise money for the 5th War Loan. A pyramid of 12,000 German Pickelhaubes (spiked helmets) was erected at each end, along with other German war equipment. Underneath the helmets – sent from warehouses in Germany at the end of the war – is a hollow supporting structure. The figure at the top hasn’t been confirmed but it is believed to be Nike, the Goddess of Victory.
