Some public transit was rebuilt in the 1990's, but it's not very good in most cities nor do we have a vibrant culture anywhere in America. However there is a drive to make cities and places more pedestrian friendly for lots of people want that in order to have vibrant communities and culture to be experienced like can be done in European and other countries still.

@@TUBESPECIFIC1 The difficulty now is the way Cities have become spread out : without fossil fuel driven cars, they are impractical. The availability of fossil fuels for cars is expected to end in a generation. Electrically driven public transport will be the only option left. Some electric cars will be available, but the billion plus personal transport vehicles world wide will not be replaced. Even China won't have the capacity to do so.

When I watch movies from the 1930s and 40s, I observe how America - and the whole world - has changed since then. For example, the way people dressed back then and the way they dress now. Or the way people lived back then and the way they live now. In music: from beautiful, melodious songs to rap and gibberish - not to mention the loud noise and the screaming, which young people listen to nowadays.

Nass, Great video! You notice not many men wore beards in the 1930's and 40's in the big cities. Plus, by the late 1940's not as many men and females wore hats as much. I think the young people especially started to style their hair more and did not want to cover it up in a hat. While older people continued to wear the hats in general. Wow! it's amazing only a few of the little kids and young teenagers would be still alive today from this video.

I noticed also in other videos how erratic drivers were back then. Anyways, thanks for the videos. My favorite are of Los Angeles/Hollywood of the 40’s. I was born in 1986 but it was in LA; what it used to look like is amazing. I’m also obsessed with the Black Dahlia case and it’s interesting to see what Elizabeth Short experienced. I also wish there was a 1930’s-1940’s Hollywood video of Beachwood Dr around the 2600 block (2608 Beachwood Dr on Google Maps street view is best) of the Hollywoodland Sign.

Switching from one scene to another, then another, then another, rapidly , makes it a bit harder to soak up the atmosphere of each scene. Unless that's all the footage you've got to play with ??? Anyway, other than that, great restored old footage, as always.

Time machine..... Take me away, I'm ready! We lived in Southern California circa 1960 and it was still very much like this then. I remember going to the Hollywood Boulevard Christmas Parade and seeing all the stars. I would give anything to go back to the Los Angeles of that time. No it wasn't perfect, but I can't stand the social media world of today.

LA circa 1948? The smog was already there. I recognized every one of those streets. My family lived in Boyle Heights on 1st St,and they rode the streetcar downtown all the time. I was born years later in late 1961.

Only complaint I have is with the way it was filmed or edited. You'd get a great shot of a Los Angeles Railway street car or bus and then it would cut away to another scene. Did you notice the street with the dual gauge tracks. There was only one very brief shot of a Pacific Electric red car on the standard gauge tracks. The city cars were narrow gauge.

People all were dressed so much better when they went downtown! The ladies all in high heels, hat and gloves. It is also remarkable how slender people in general were, in the days before highly processed, junk and fast foods. No fatsos anywhere in sight, except maybe the traffic cop, lol. And amazing how crowded the streets were compared to today (before suburban malls and internet shopping)! I just love to watch these videos...keep them coming. There is a pregnant lady at 3:06 cossing the street. Imagine her kid would be around 80 years today. Hard to believe!
