@fifilaru Actually, all the influential music and art that was produced by Downtown artists from the 70s on, and which was emblematic of New York itself, was created by your so-called "wannabes" and NOT Cooper Union or NYU students.

@zensolo It was a amusement park which was opened only for a short period of time. It was in the Northern Bronx. My sister went there once, can't remember why but I didn't.

The new streetlights were not installed on the streets until mid-1963 so the
mixture of old and new would suggest 1963 or 1964.

With the Cooper Union and NYU, it was always a place for artists. The wannabes moved in around 1980 or so.

@Lisanne78RPM I'm curious-- what was Freedomland? earliest visit to NYC was in Summer of '72- I was 18- before moving there in '77. Thanks for your sharp eye & detailed info!

@butohbaby Yeah, I see your point. I'm just reacting from the P.O.V. of a guy fresh out of college who didn't see downtown New York, and East Village, until the late 1970s. Compared to today, Astor Place in 1978 looked pretty much the same as in this movie. Sure, cool stuff was already percolating behind the storefronts, but it was all invisible to me at that time. I wish I knew, back then!

@robertwmartens: There were always artists in the EV. Cheap housing so they could do their work. Charlie Parker lived on Ave B, and Allen Ginsburg lived in the EV also. The beat generation and the beatniks...that scene wasn't happening in Brooklyn.

Thank you Lisanne78RPM & catfan for narrowing it down and also for sharing the clues; things for me to look out for - appreciate it.
