That was wonderful and I remember it all as I watch, much of it coming back to me on sight! I'd totally forgotten about Arlen's Department Store. Are they even still open?

Thanks so much for sharing this.

It brought back many memories, especially seeing Sibley's all decked out for the Holidays.

The Southeast is still ok. but The rest of it is actually a zoo with many different species of wild animals. It quite the sight......so sad what it is now compared to what it was.

@czar14617 the kid in video name is Joe.This video was taken by my great uncle.He lived on Trinidad st. in the early 1960s.I believe the house and yard in beginning to be 2 trinidad st.I was not even born when this was filmed.I had his old films put on video/disk.Watch my others videos to see if you know anything else.
