It's not TIMES SQUARE anymore; it is fuckin' Disneyland now...the true NYC culture has all but disappeared, from downtown to uptown, East side to West side, fellow native New Yorkers! It is now whitebread Yuppieland, Anywhere USA. Since it has obviously lost it's true soul (thanks to Giuliani, Bloomberg and Gentrification bullshit) & it doesn't belong to us anymore, they could NUKE the fuckin' city for all I care!!
@ursa41 so fucking true, too much plastic people walking around NYC, the real new york is dead, it has no "fuck you" attitude anymore. the real timesquare I miss.
Oh yes, I remember all the strip joints on 42nd...joked about the execs from the upper 40's going there for lunch. I got robbed in broad day light on 42nd...with cops everywhere....man I miss those days.
I remember when I lived in NYC 42nd street use to be that way, I was suprised when I visited NYC in 2008 and times squar 42nd street was all tourist, times squar sucks now.
Ah, great video. And it makes a point. I've never even been to New York and all that sounded great and...different...WAS 42nd street and now that's they've changed that it sucks I won't ever see the real thing.

Very noble of you David to capture that stuff. It is really sad to see that place get Disney-fied.
