This was produced by Castle Films in 1959, and it was the third remake of “New York: The Wonder City”. Castle did produced two other shorts about the “City that Never Sleeps” which was from 1939 and 1947.
However, in the Columbus Circle section, one of the buses that passed was one of 120 "New Looks" a.k.a. "Fishbowls" in service to Fifth Avenue Coach LInes and/or Surface Transit (both had the same green and cream color scheme). The first 20 (10 of which were air-conditioned) entered service in February 1960; the remaining 100 (50 FACL, 50 ST) entered the picture in November 1960. So I'd agree with what was mentioned about this version being 1963.
Great video, thanks for sharing!
The 60s. What a happy time in tourism and advertising
Check out the now classic cable TV series Mad Men! It reminds me of the fashions and attitudes that my late uncle and my aunt and children had as an upper middle class family. My mother was my uncle's brother and she and my father were Lower Middle Class and we lived with a AM band radio from General Electric that my late mother bought in 1961 with me and a Zenith black and white TV set circa 1960. I enjoyed what we had even though my uncle's family were wealthy.
One day I’ll visit New York City
When America was America and New York City was New York City when I was a boy there during the Mad Men era.
You have to admire them for giving time to Harlem....
ɷ I Haveeee Watched Thissss Moviee Leakedddd Versionnnn Hereeee : - t.co/RlKbv1hghK
Not sure "admire" is the word I would use but I certainly was (pleasantly) surprised that they included Harlem
Way before the tein towers!!!
What?.....no YANKEE STADIUM?....smh
at 5:56 see Metropolitan museum of art before they whitewashed it. Looks beautiful, like the way old buildings look in Europe where they do not whitewash their landmark buildings.
1959 s
At 3:16, that is not Midtown Manhattan! That is the Financial District in Lower Manhattan!
Too bad there's a tiger in prison @ 5:34
Americans is the most intelligent in this World!
