Lifelong NYC resident here and trust me when I tell you, people living in these 'hoods in 1974 or 1984 would consider 2024 a futuristic paradise by comparison l.

You definitely deserve more recognition for this!

i was here, in NYC, in the 1970's, 80's and today, its a totally different place.

As someone who was born and spent a lot of my youth in the BX, I remember a lot of those abandoned buildings, I remember my family had a high rise in a white building (clinton tower) and the BX was always on fire. I later found out a lot of those fires were intentional, building owners trying to get insurance $$$ was rampant.

I used to make deliveries from philly to nyc in the late 70's 2-3 times a week on foot, ... I never imagined it would be turned around...Going there used to make me happy to get back to PHILLY... :)... I was on google street maps recently; It's night and day...Very clean for a giant city!

Yhea that New York was terrible. I remember visiting Brooklyn in the 80’s coming from canada . The energy was unmatched but. NY was really scary and extremely dangerous .

0:33 I heard that Mercedes-Benz 300 diesel before I saw it! May still be running today!

Oh God, the Boogie Down Bronx was the worst of the worst 😫 total waste landscape ever

100% solid gold footage, Charlie. I think it's important for people to remember that what happened in the South Bronx wasn't merely neglect but coordinated arson and insurance fraud perpetrated by the buildings' owners. Hardly anyone was ever prosecuted let alone convicted for this wholesale destruction.

Looks like a war zone - buildings in rubble/ruins. Love seeing the old cars.

This is what parts of Philadelphia looks like today.
