Any footage of any era of New York is fab✅great upload💪🏻

We were once a proper country.

Beautiful women and sure of themselves.

I like this video without sound effects.

Time before welfare, when people worked or they went hungry. No such thing as a victimhood mentality. Very few illegal aliens.

Didn’t see any pregnant men?

It looks like people had it together, dressed to the nines, in shape and generally being quite civil. But there were bad neighborhoods that existed even then, the Bowery, east Village or Hell's Kitchen, not safe to walk. Safer today, in fact, than back then.

Why so many men carrying new women's coats on the street????

Astonishing. When normal middle class people were the lifeblood of the city.

Cuando los hombres eran hombres y las mujeres eran mujeres, y los latinos, indios y chinos estaban aun en sus miseros paises, también se ve que los negros no molestaban la vista

The image looks so shaky

Anyone else Notice the boy 13:50 looking through the car window

Why is there no sound?

At 23:08 I knew that had to be Coney Island even before the following shot of the Tornado roller coaster, I could practically smell the salt air! I was born in 1950 and growing up in Bay Ridge, Brooklyn, this was they way I saw the city. I remember some of it so clearly. I really don't know what happened to us, its more than just the changes in fashion, people are so different now. Advances in medicine and progress in technology are great but the disparity in income has caused so much damage to society. Did anyone really want to see us change to the point where so many people live on the street, where young men wear their pants so low that they expose their underwear, where women are covered with tattoos, where nearly everyone is hypnotized by their smart phone, where men randomly sucker punch women in the face, where children are being shot while in school? Its unlikely that anyone foresaw or wanted this, so how did it happen?

Thank you for posting your atmospheric work (great also 1977). Funny how details like the obviously then brandnew Monza at 5:05 with the Opeltown Rüsselsheim number plate come to attention when looking back. :)

"Designing Woman,' one of the Times Square films, dates from 1957 - these videos were clearly made in 1955-57, although possibly during different years. This was now 67 years ago - the great majority of people filmed here are now only memories.

I'm seven again!

slotermeer lijkt mij ook wel interesant. ik ben daar opgegroeid

Looking through rose colored glasses.

Where are the beltless trenchcoats?

Ronnies letztes Vollendetes Rennen...hier zeigte sich zum letzten Mal wie überlegen er war🇸🇪

Geuzenveld, lijn 21, Eendracht met sportvelden en wielerbaan, scholen, paard in de gang, manege richting Ookmeer met die rare brug. Vuurwerk verkoop van Karnebeek straat. Lambertus Zijlplein. Dansschool Bonel.....

Somebody notice the ambient sound those days! Only horses steps people conversation. No honking .no music .beeping or else!!!😮😮😮😮

15:50 新橋演舞場 (Shinbashi Enbujyo) の入口付近。

To think almost all the adults in this video are now residents of a cemetery.

I wonder if New Yorkers were nice 1950’s.

This is one of the best videos of this type because it shows people, not just the building in NYC. Might be lunch hour with all the attractive secretaries walking around in their summer dresses? Those shots of Coney Island are something else, I can smell the salt air and Nathans French fries, I loved that place! Great video of the city and time that I grew up in. Sadly, it'll never be like that again.

Back when coffee was coffee ☕️

Man can I get a New York City video from the past that has the god damn Diplomat Hotel in it???? Geez…

Before biden destroyed America never vote democrat again

Belo video da época de ouro da F1.

I'd go back to Red Hook Brooklyn and warn Larry Gallo, Crazy Joe Gallo's brother of Carmine ( The Snake) Persico's up coming treachery and keep a close eye on the old man Joe Profaci so he doesn't escape the net in the up coming Kidnapping.

I feel like you should play the song "fly me to the moon"

15:27 Blonde women looked like Marilyn Monroe.

@22:56 literally time travelers....they dress like girls today =]

Time machine i like how nobody is wearing plastic all natural fibres aesthetics elegance and classiness .

15:05 woman in pink is a timetravler

People in The Bronx used to leave their doors open. Now we got people on mopeds going up-and-down the streets drug dealing graffiti. Litter loud speaking people who do not discipline their children. You get the picture.

Basically, the seeds of the Communist liberals to destroy the cityr are planted around at that time The people walking around the streets today. Look like complete slobs f** purple hair. Illegal aliens in large numbers. We're nowhere to be found 95% of the people spoke English. Obviously it was mostly white. There were black people. Who were not being forced fed every day? How much everybody hates them by the media So they could keep their narrative going to make money. The divide and conquer narrative was there Goal from the start. Young people today are arrogant and disrespectful. Back then, they were very respectful to all the people.I didn't go to school to complain like mental a patient I don't know why people pay to send their kids to school in colleges today. Unless they're going to get something serious. Like rocket scientists, etcetera. Even on campuses, they dress like slobs today America is headed towards a chaotic disaster. And Third world inferior behavior. Do I things are going? We will be prime targets for the Chinese who are very disciplined in their societies. They will take this country over little-by-little. I won't be here but I feel bad for today's. Generations behind me what could have been just look at this video.civil society. I guess Joe Mcartey ..was right after all.

After watching this video why do I get the feeling that society has regressed?

I would want to live in THIS New York. Textiles certainly were at a high level at that time.

What the hell happened to the United States? Instead of progressing, it was a crab behind. Now there is more poverty and misery, even though the data BLATANTLY LIE WHEN SAYING THAT THE UNITED STATES HAVE A HIGHER LIFE EXPECTANCY AND THERE IS LESS POVERTY🤥

JUST MAGNIFICENT!

16:26........Lee Remick and Elizabeth Montgomery !!!

Geweldig (kolere man!). What een hoop 'heimwee' gevoelens roept dit op. Alleen al het taaltje, mijn moers taal. Woon al 25 jaar in verweggiestan en kom niet meer naar Nederland, maar toch bedankt, ik gouw verder kijken.

On a hot summer day : who wants HOT buttered CORN ? Gimme Lemon Italian Ices .

20:17 pretty sure that's man in DRAG ! She has huge hands.

Your time code and stamps are kinda ruining these clips . Not sure how you can "copyright" found footage filmed by others decades ago? Would they NOT be public domain? Unless this was in your family and it was inherited.

26:50 wherever you are THANK YOU, you are awesome

It's enough to make you weep when you see old film like this and realize what so-called "progressivism" has done to this nation.
