I live now where that film was taken. Remember well the old small train bridge that anything over a pickup truck couldn't get under. Thats wild...Lived up on Rich Ave. at the time it happened. Went to work & was wondering where all the cars were coming from. Went downtown about 8 pm & watched the carp swim down Water St.

I have been looking for more footage of Cambridge from the 60's 70's but I find it very hard to find anything. I just shot a bunch of new footage a few days about f the down town area.
