A New York Minute in Years Gone By

Having just returned from new New York, I was interested in this video of it as it appeared over 80 years ago. There's a shot of Times Square, another of Washington Square, and other places that went by too quickly for me to recognize. Hang on!

It reminded me of what it's like to drive (or ride anxiously) in China.

It was interesting, too, to see double decker tourist busses driving the streets in the 20's. Today, they are a source of derision on many NY sites, but they seem to have a historical tie on the city.
