Albany, New York - winter 1986 - 8mm film footage

Do you remember Albany in the mid-1980s? I was living in the student ghetto (Quail Street and Yates) when I went out for a stroll with my Yashica 8mm film camera full of Kodachrome, and got some random footage around Washington Park and side streets, with a side trip to Thatcher Park. The soundtrack is "Silent Reverie".

awesome! saw a little thatcher park in there. what gets me most about seeing footage of the mid 80's (and even early 90's) is the cars! thats where you really see the big difference. you very rarely see those old school cars anymore. good stuff!

the beauty and the curse of Albany is that it could be any place in any time; this video shows that perfectly. thanks for uploading.
