My foot would be sore kickin' the sides of cars!
I had on The Ink Spots You Cant See The Sun When You're Crying playing on while this was going and it matched up perfectly with the chord changes as it's even in the same key!!! Hahahaha
Wow! looks like it was way more busy back then!
WOW! Life before suburbs, malls and taco bells. Must have been nice
150 miles of streetcar tracks existed in those days. Built without tax money. Regulated into oblivion. Now being rebuilt at about 50x the cost. 🙂
Awesome video! Love it.
I see at the end that bicyclists acted like they owned the place back then too…
There arent any MAX/street car lines going through this particular intersection today… I think there were a lot more of them back in those days
This is GREAT stuff!!! Thank you!
