Wow, it was TOUGH crossing the street back then! This was the era when people would hang around construction sites with NO regard for their own safety. Take a look at some old photos and you can see SO many "OSHA violations". Regardless, great trolley footage!

It's the first street intersection camera footage. I hope no one gets a ticket! LOL

@DarthCormac It's not just your imagination! The place has undergone construction thats for sure, but it is undeniably Union Square Broadway and 14th. For me perhaps its more familiar because I've been here over 30years and I still have the memories of all those 19th century buildings!

@bdienstag - Funny you should say that. I go to Union Square a lot when I visit NYC (cos the Strand is there!), and as I watched this video I got chills because got the oddest sense of familiarity--as if I could swear I know the exact spot the camera would be at, today. But it's probably just my imagination.

I like the trolleys better than the buses. Too bad we got involved with oil and gasoline...and greed.
