I was 11 years old that year and I must say it new york doesnt have that same feel anymore! I know things never stay the same but watching this is like going into a time machine! Nostalgia is an understatement right about now!
I am from Paris(France), and I visited Big Apple in April, 1987 for the first time! It was a big shock for me, I fell in love with this city immediately! Paris is really beautiful but we have not the atmosphere and the energy as N.Y. had in this time! I lived in Greenwich Village (St Mark's place), I kept of this period of my life good memories!
@@user-or6yn8pm3c Jeez keep your xenophobic banter to yourself. Paris & NYC are international cities with residents from all over the globe. That's what makes them great cities.
Yep...was a rough, gritty city back then but it's missed. No cell phones, people had better communication skills, kids played outside. Boys were boys, gals were gals now it's all gone. Well l guess that's progress.
PabloCruise91. Yep. We've all sold out, collectively, as a culture, to corporations. Pretty sad. We're not only tame, we're highly sensitive and highly politically correct idiots. Why'd we do this to ourselves? We chose comfort over freedom.
15 years old in 1987 me and my best friend took the train in to the city. A guy named "Fox" followed us into a McDonald's and was trying to sell us a nickel bag of oregano. Great times
the last time I visited Manhattan was in 89, I was underage then, I remember driving with my parents through 42nd and saw all the xxx spots, it's a surreal memory now, in one part I wish I was older then so I could remember it more....I'm sure it changed for the better but I remember wanting to get out and walk that street..now I have a family and I still looked back and wish I can travel back in time to that era...thanks for the post :)
My Grandmom used to keep me locked behind the gate in the 80s in bed-Stuy crazy and even though the city was bad and high in crime in the 80s people was more nicer here then more polite
Wow dude I was 5 years old when you shot this. I'm 31 now and I still remember the Minolta sign in time square. Thank you for my childhood memories from Time Square. Never thought I'd see it again.
gbond 36 years old now. It was 31 years ago. World has cjanged a lot during your life and you are still so young. At least you show an interest in history. I like to go back to times before I was born like the turn of the century. This footage shows the little but important details the historybooks leave out.
Truly priceless video. I spent a year in NYC 1979-80. I did not have a video camera then but I took an hour of the sounds of NYC on a boom box. I still have the casette; have not played it for decades. NYC was certainly much better back then than it is now. There was more spirit back then, to say it simply.
I remember New York City so well during this time I was 6 years old back then I am surprised I wasn't in any of the shots in this video either walking around with my dad or my grandma or my mom. I love nyc its been my home all my life. but now I call Florida home as well. I remember the Beefsteak Charlies in Timessqaure back then.
The city use to look exactly like the movies back then. When I visited one time I felt like I was being in the movies. It doesn't look like the movies much anymore.
I LOVE THIS!! Thank you for sharing. I grew up in the 80s in NYC and miss this city. Today this city is a mere shell of what it used to be...truly 1 of the more sad things of the last century
I worked at 1515 Broadway when this was filmed and it did hit the nail on the head this is what looked like--high brow theater goers were inches away from those who enjoy a lower class ofentertainment
any 1 else notice how the sun gave off a different color , especially around sunset. I remember it that way before September 11. the sun in this new reality gives off more of a white tint. when I was younger the sun was orange, with an orange glow at sunset. nowadays its whitish, almost like an electrical glow. just my observations. 111. even the radios sounded different. love you guys!
Bad Drivers Of Napa Valley that def makes sense! Even in late 90s early 00's i remember the sun with hints of orange. Ugh i wish i was alive back then in the 80s my mom had so much fun and she knew it was bad to go to 42nd street and now the tourists wont go home. Even in movies from 80s-90s i recall the sunrises just how she described them
im not even from new york and i can appriciate this.. i always tell people the NYC i remember from TV growing up was WAAAY different than what it is now .. glad theres videos up for us all to see ;)
Holy moly. I worked at 43 and Broadway(03-2005). This brings me back. I didn't know that Nathans was before NASDAQ on that corner. That's awesome. It also explains the 2 floor of Duane Reade between 42nd and 43rd.
Wow... this is how I remember my "Times Square" NYC. I was 22 years old and running with the "scene". Thank you very much for this moving nostalgia from the past. I love it....
God! I was 20 years old and worked at 49th and Broadway (Brill Building) at this time. I miss those days so much. Going there now makes me physically ill and sad.
I love looking at stock footage of NYC and Times Square from the late 80s early 90s. It was dangerous but it was authentic, it had life. It was gritty but it was real, cigarette and whiskey billboards, adult film theaters, open drug dealing, crack was king in 1989, old taxis graffiti on the subway cars. Now it looks like a suburban shopping mall after the extreme gentrification, no soul at all.
Primitive, dirty, more crime, poverty, dealers on the streets, crappy graffiti, poorer infra, primitive tech, is not better in any way. Everything is better now.
Hey moviemagg, I enjoyed that! What were the streets of NYC like back then in contrast to now? Were some of them dangerous? I notice there seems to be more locals about and few tourists. What was Times Square like? I heard it used to be a tricky place unlike now which is full of tourists.
A reminder - The Stock Market had just crashed or was about to. "Black Monday" October 19, 1987. " The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 22.6 percent in a single trading session, a loss that remains the largest one-day stock market decline in history.".
October 1987, huh? Wow! I was working in a naval architectural firm in Manhattan by day and attending NYC Tech in Brooklyn (today NYC College of Technology) by night; then, every Friday night after work , we'd hit Copacabanna up in 62 St & 5th. Shit man those were the days...sorry for thinking out loud, but I am just WAY TOO NOSTAGLIC! That was THE REAL NEW YORK CITY!! Word up!
ursa41 It was paradise for us young people. You could afford yr own apartment or live with someone. Jobs were plentiful. We used to say fired in the morning hired that afternoon. There was more to do if you were young. Lots of affordable clubs, bars and restaurants and movie theatres and concert venues. Girls were friendlier (altho 21st century beauty is unmatched) and we had a way of making our own fun on the cheap. I could leave the house with practically no money and still come back satisfied I had a great time. It was easy to make new friends because people were not absorbed in their smart phones. You did not need Facebook. People were more interesting and dared to think.
Times Square was a mess in 87. Half of those store fronts were empty. My girlfriend nearly had her purse snatched but I busted the guy before he could do it. Rudy really turned it around in the 90's and made it what it is today.
I liked it better than. Now there's so many people all tourists you can't even walk it's so crowded. Everything corst three times as much. and it's like being on sesame Street everything is kid friendly.
This was how I will always remember this area (my college years).... Although only a few things are refurbished (New Amsterdam, marquee back on Paramount bldg etc), alot has been demolished with weirdo glass eco-buildings as replacements. Also love the now low-tech signage and people not walking around with a phone in their face.
@NeverContactMe Very true, that's why I don't jump on the "OH EVERYTHING WAS SO MUCH BETTER BEFORE ______" bandwagon, especially when looking at New York City. The city has had its ups and downs each era, in fact, if anything, today's NYC looks cleaner and safer in comparison to the 70s-early 90s. Also notice the abundance of x-rated theaters at the time, not that adults won't enjoy it ;), but NYC should be something for the whole family, and that's why I prefer NYC of today.
This vid brings back AWESOME memories of the nyc I remember growing up in the 70's/80's. Look at the fashion!! LOL I was so fortunate to have experienced how "real" that place was back then. Thank you for this vid.
I love this video...feels like u are transported back in time.....funny thing is that i was 11 years old in 87',living in Cali...i wonder what i was doing at the very moment this was being filmed????
my 1st year of High School Thomas Jefferson in BKLYN.. NYC was very Tuff but it was Authentic.. individuals were individuals ... it's like a giant Walmart now unreal
What a great idea... I would love to hear that. Too bad an audio recording isn't something that can be posted in any kind of way. I grew up in the city, NYC and miss it terribly. That would be fun to listen to and then try to guess what all the different sounds are... lol.
@mantanasauce I too grew up in this area during the 70's/80's. Haven't been back to NY in many years and I miss it so much! But why do you say it is now a mere shell of what it used to be????
I wasnt even a thought yet but i wish i was here!!!! I wanna cry when i think of the past. Things may have not. Been greater but the reality of things and the grittiness of what my city used to be is more preferred. Ppl from other countries never wanna go home from our city because its so glamorous how about they come to the hood. They only fix what they want. The hood still the same it just looks a little polished
Sure. I think I recall seeing one in a James Bond movie, too. But I was just waxing nostalgic about my first personal experience seeing one. I can't wait until they develop the Maxwell Smart "shoe phone" in real life!
Slightly less crowed than nowadays that's for sure. Foot traffic is Up and it's a pain when you have to get to 47th Langans for work and tourists are staring all around instead of watching out. But hey I know that's the gig right. BTW - I am 85% sure that guy on the film waving is Eric Roberts (Julia's Brother) :-)
Great footage. I know it was for all the right reasons polution wise etc, but I can't help thinking that America lost a lot of it's unique identity when they started to phase out all of all the large automobiles for the more european small sized cars we see today! There must've been another way around the problem! America was famed for its large cars!
I grew up in NYC, I left in October 1986 for Sacramento Cal...the clips moves me to tears because I walked those same streets..I worked on East 23rd street...West 52nd street..went to NY inst of Tech on W 62nd street..back then times square was a DUMP and that's paying it a compliment!! I think around 1987 or 88 they cleaned it up and brought in major stores cleaned up the porno theaters and brought in tourists. Times square looks a million times better! Why did the clean it after I left? LOL!
There were people with cell phones in 1987, but you had to be rich. The first time I saw someone walking with a mobile phone was probably in 1985 or 1986, and he was a big fat man carrying a box with a handle in one hand (kind of like a lunchbox size or small attache case) and it had a cord traveling out of it to the handset, and he was having a very loud, ostentatious conversation. I remember him giving me what seemed to be a wink while I gaped at him, it made an impression on me.
Sorry dude, but I was only visiting New York for the day when I shot this video back in 1987. I drove down from upstate NY where we had a summer home up in the mountains, just to spend the day in the city. My home has always been in the sun and fun capital of the world, the great state of CUBA-USA. Only a real New Yorker can answer your questions.
2:15 min This guy looks like Tom Cruise in "RainMan"... ;-) I was twice in New York, always a fantastic experience for a while. But I would become crazy, if I had to live there.
I was 11 years old that year and I must say it new york doesnt have that same feel anymore! I know things never stay the same but watching this is like going into a time machine! Nostalgia is an understatement right about now!
I feel the exact same way....what I would give to go back
Nostalgia about childhood time and teenage
I am from Paris(France), and I visited Big Apple in April, 1987 for the first time! It was a big shock for me, I fell in love with this city immediately! Paris is really beautiful but we have not the atmosphere and the energy as N.Y. had in this time! I lived in Greenwich Village (St Mark's place), I kept of this period of my life good memories!
That's funny I was in Paris in the summer of 83 and had a great time. Not sure how great it is now. Same for NYC.
@@gato7908 Both cities are now like being in third world countries. Hardly any French in Paris and hardly any Americans in NYC.
@@user-or6yn8pm3c Jeez keep your xenophobic banter to yourself. Paris & NYC are international cities with residents from all over the globe. That's what makes them great cities.
My cousin and his father lives in Paris. I am from Ukraine but live in USA, and watching video about New York city
Totally different vibe then. More danger, less rules.
Freedom if you could handle it.
Especially the 70s and before
Freedom; If you could handle it. Such true and deep words
Yep...was a rough, gritty city back then but it's missed. No cell phones, people had better communication skills, kids played outside. Boys were boys, gals were gals now it's all gone. Well l guess that's progress.
I was born and raised in NYC in the 1960’s and I remember 1987 very well. I miss my NYC from the 1980’s. There will never be an era like this!
NYC was pretty cool back then, Thankfully I got to live it during this time. Now its a joke compared to what it used to be. Great video.
***** People are too tamed nowadays.
That's the ny I remembered as a kid. Guliani fkd it all up.
PabloCruise91. Yep. We've all sold out, collectively, as a culture, to corporations. Pretty sad. We're not only tame, we're highly sensitive and highly politically correct idiots. Why'd we do this to ourselves? We chose comfort over freedom.

As a native NYer born and raised, I'd give ANYTHING to have those days back. I sure as shit don't recognize New York City anymore, except by name :-(
that year was there and lived in ridgewood Queens NY and became an US citizen
This city never sleeps
lots of 1970s cars
I miss seedy old Times Square. It's so plastic and Disney now.
Same here
Those little skinny Sabrett hot dogs with the red onions I can taste them now.
I love old clips of NYC, just great to see people walking around w/o a cell phone !
God! I was 20 years old and worked at 49th and Broadway (Brill Building) at this time. I miss those days so much. Going there now makes me physically ill and sad.
why plz share
Kyle H My family committed suicide there.
.... Ahhh, the Times Square I remember.... the one with heart and soul.... the one that still catered to grown-ups.

I loved roy Rogers chicken back in the day. personally I liked it better than kfc
New York was much better back then if you were in your 20 and over. If you were in your teens, it was pretty rough for some of us.

I never going to forget this spot , greeting to all students Spanish American institute 43 street class 2010/2012
Great to see The 'Bond' building, being a huge fan of The Clash and how they rocked Times Square on their 17 night residency there.
Well I just like the video cause I can see my Hotel Diplomat just past the Cafe-43 sign!
I wish I could of bought the Diplomat....

I lived on W47th Street during the '80's. The city had a lot more character then.
my 1st year of High School Thomas Jefferson in BKLYN.. NYC was very Tuff but it was Authentic.. individuals were individuals ... it's like a giant Walmart now unreal
Man, where IS everybody? Times Square is always twice as crowded as this now, even in a snow blizzard!
Damn time flies and to think I was born 2 yrs after this video
What a great idea... I would love to hear that. Too bad an audio recording isn't something that can be posted in any kind of way. I grew up in the city, NYC and miss it terribly. That would be fun to listen to and then try to guess what all the different sounds are... lol.
Oh yes station wagons. The SUVs of their time 1930s til 1990s!
@mantanasauce I too grew up in this area during the 70's/80's. Haven't been back to NY in many years and I miss it so much! But why do you say it is now a mere shell of what it used to be????

The great thing about the Port Authority Bus Terminal was it's location. Tourists were bussed right into the middle of the wildness!
great upload its like a real time machine
Sure. I think I recall seeing one in a James Bond movie, too. But I was just waxing nostalgic about my first personal experience seeing one. I can't wait until they develop the Maxwell Smart "shoe phone" in real life!
Slightly less crowed than nowadays that's for sure. Foot traffic is Up and it's a pain when you have to get to 47th Langans for work and tourists are staring all around instead of watching out. But hey I know that's the gig right. BTW - I am 85% sure that guy on the film waving is Eric Roberts (Julia's Brother) :-)
Great footage. I know it was for all the right reasons polution wise etc, but I can't help thinking that America lost a lot of it's unique identity when they started to phase out all of all the large automobiles for the more european small sized cars we see today!

I grew up in NYC, I left in October 1986 for Sacramento Cal...the clips moves me to tears because I walked those same streets..I worked on East 23rd street...West 52nd street..went to NY inst of Tech on W 62nd street..back then times square was a DUMP and that's paying it a compliment!! I think around 1987 or 88 they cleaned it up and brought in major stores cleaned up the porno theaters and brought in tourists. Times square looks a million times better! Why did the clean it after I left? LOL!
good quality, was this filmed on video8 ?
What's the guy at 0:44 saying?
By this time, they had prettty well cleaned it up from what it had been in the 1970's, but this shows what it looked like before they "beautified' it.
same spot today would be good as a comparison.
I was born october 27 1987 .. Cool vid
April 13 1986 checkin in ;)
how can you save this video for such a long time. amazing
do you have any WTC footage from that period?
I Love Chevy Caprice & Impala '80s Taxi cab!!!
From now on, I'm going to film streets and post the vids on whatever ppl will get together on in the future
Real NYC the vibe is so different now
Raymond Burr had a phone in his car on the old Perry Mason episodes filmed back in the 1950s.
Back when new York was new York
There were people with cell phones in 1987, but you had to be rich. The first time I saw someone walking with a mobile phone was probably in 1985 or 1986, and he was a big fat man carrying a box with a handle in one hand (kind of like a lunchbox size or small attache case) and it had a cord traveling out of it to the handset, and he was having a very loud, ostentatious conversation. I remember him giving me what seemed to be a wink while I gaped at him, it made an impression on me.
What a time to be alive a stock market that crashed 22% ,but no cell phones
0:24 Liberty Lines
awwwwwww i was there even though i was 8 months old
The days when the gangsters ran the streets kids was millionaires
Sorry dude, but I was only visiting New York for the day when I shot this video back in 1987. I drove down from upstate NY where we had a summer home up in the mountains, just to spend the day in the city. My home has always been in the sun and fun capital of the world, the great state of CUBA-USA. Only a real New Yorker can answer your questions.
So cute at the start!
2:15 min This guy looks like Tom Cruise in "RainMan"... ;-)
I was twice in New York, always a fantastic experience for a while. But I would become crazy, if I had to live there.
i just turned 23. I love this Times Square compared to now. No soul as the gentleman said below. Looks like Disneyland now, kind of ridiculous,
Spiritual64Surrender i just turned 24 so sad we should have been there in these days.
giuliani took away New York's character.
Did that guy say something in the yellow jumper?0:44
Meep meep
The baby at 1:51 is now about 25. Wonder where he/she is now!
I like this! very nice. thanks
damn, the cars are so cool
I was just a baby but those days were so good without the pandemics.
