These are richer neighborhoods/parts of Manhattan. This was also the business center. Brooklyn/Bronx (other Burroughs) in this era would've been a different story. I'm not even sure if they had building codes at this time, a lot of immigrants lived in buildings that were side by side with poor sanitation and there weren't many fire escapes. The Depression would have a big impact on things, but Manhattan was insulated from much of the detriment.

I lost both by the time I was 20. Let me tell you how I grew up around my grandparents,a tv and a telephone and one car was all they had. My grandfather wore black dress pants,black leather shoes and a button up shirt until the day he died. They lived simple times,they went to work came home cooked dinner,watched tv or went for a drive. They lived a very simple clutter free life.

Your content is basically a time machine window. The sound is also a hard part I imagine, to match the time frame, like the engine of the cars, horns, etc. Amazing how a remaster like this shortens the gap between 80 years of image capturing technology, bringing such a remote time closer to us. How do you feel when you take a time off and watch these, do you have some sort of nostalgia or something for these times? I have mixed feelings watching things that are decades older than me, actually anything from the analogic era, but a few given decades shake me more than others for unknown reasons.

Also, lived on the Upper East side in the early 1970s when I worked as a fashion illustrator and loved Bergdorf Goodmans , Bonwit Tellers, Lord and Taylors and B. Altman's department stores!

@@NASS_0 Hi Nass. The video you asked me to watch is New York. I did see in the video a store called Phil Kronfeld. That was a NYC Haberdashery. It's not the 1930's it is early in the 1940's during the War. The lights are all dimmed at night and are blacked out above street level. Notice the cars are not using the full beam headlight. I believe parking lights had to be used, or the headlights had to be partially blacked out with dark tape. My mother grew up in Boston during the War and had a number of stories, about what life was like during the War. I definitely remember her stories about how dark Boston was at night during the War. Hope this helps.

1930s, the Depression years. Yet here, we see a NYC street with pedestrian traffic of what are predominantly affluent looking people. Immaculately turned out, well dressed, men and women both. With highly polished automobiles on the road and parked at the curb. A glorious day in NYC.

Anyone else see the accident that almost happened? It begins at time 4:53. It's a few blocks south of Central Park. Fifth Ave went in both directions back then. A vehicle is coming uptown (behind the camera and from the right) at a pretty good rate of speed. A second vehicle then came from the left, possibly from E.56th toward 5th Ave. The second vehicle almost hit the first one going uptown, but the first vehicle swerved to the right to miss the one coming from the left. There's another vehicle obstructing our view, but you can still see it all happening. Take a look for yourselves.

The beginning of the modern era: At time frame 4:45, where the person in the car selfishly sits there not letting the person out of the parking spot. Today it's due to someone making or watching an instagram or Tiktok video or texting while driving. Back then who knows but apparently the obliviousness was beginning. (Actually, I guess they didn't know it but they actually WERE making a youtube video back then! ha ha).

I'd love to step into that world of yesterday, walk up to a counter and order lunch. Then, after listening to conversations around me awhile, try to chat up the person sitting next to me. It would be an incredible, firsthand way to learn about people of the time. Just seeing how they'd present themselves to a stranger, hearing what they'd say and how they'd say it would reveal so much. Despite my attempt to fit in, I suppose I'd stand out as odd, even if I were wearing clothes like theirs because the passage of time ultimately changes us. Hard to believe that fewer than 40 years later, we'd walk on the moon and with another 40 years, we'd be walking around with smart phones. Anyway, watching this old footage reminds me that we are here for only a short while. We should make a positive difference before we leave forever.
