Heh heh Hi Ho Center.... I used to shop there as a kid. I'd buy Sega Master System video game cartridges in the city sound store. My brother used to work at sears as a teen, on the stop floor. Then they moved to another part of the hi ho center that had more space and sold LP records at that location and i even played video games at that location. The Arcade cabinet was P.O.W = Prisoners of war. it was located at the far end of the store in the corner. Then i remember buying beepers from City sound in the 90's at it's current location, across where rite-aid used to be on the corner. The white owner with his big nose and the black guy with his gold tooth are still working there!
@@LITMOVIESCENES I remember the buzz around it but i don't remember attending. ^_^ Yes, the original owner ( white guy with an accent ) still owns and runs City Sound, along with the black guy that i can't remember his name or the owners names. I'm surprised they are still in operation with Walmart, Target, amazon taking the lions share of electronics with their low prices and free shipping. Good bless them....
@@BeingKyleBusch18 for real im surprised its there...poor bpt i used to live over near Vazzys ..my buddies parents taught at harding and wed go see Frenchy Tomlin, Alex wright etc play ..bpt used to have some nice basketball i heard its not like that anymore..
I almost cried.... I grew up in Bridgeport, CT. and now live in Stamford, CT. yeah, it's poverty & crime stricken and there's no jobs but i still miss the biggest city in the state of Connecticut. It's still my home, where i have all the bad memories, good memories as a baby, child, kid, pre-teen, teen, young adult and adult. I occasionally take the train down to Bridgeport from Stamford for a visit just to walk around the part of town i grew up. ^_^ I was hype to see Bassick High school, where i graduated from in 1993 ;)
Well , You can form a new opinion... It's not crime or poverty stricken for the last 25 years or so. This is a pretty poor animation. It should show a map of where things are. and show old and new views from a similar perspective. I''d like to see something about Gustave Whitehead the inventor of the crazy flying machine, and something about Bridgeport Milling Machines, Scully tape recorders, and maybe something about the auto's that were manufactured here, and airplanes helicopters, Sikorsky , Hubbell, etc.
Beautiful Bridgeport Connecticut ... My 'Home-Town' >> I have traveled, and lived in many places and many states, as well as South America and the South of France ... but, I always wind up coming back home .. to the town where I was born. I love it here. ~~~
Love Bridgeport, even though I traveled the world as a professional trumpet player ( West Indies, Europe, etc) there's no place like Bridgeport my home.
hello.... any historians on bridgeport when was bridgeport high school built and when was it demolished and where did the records and photo graphs go please and thank you
You forgot the entire settlement of freed slaves in the west end known as Little Liberia. This was before industrialization, Bridgeport was not settled by Europeans. The actual “City of Bridgeport” we know today was formed and settled by freed slaves. They were apart of delegation, and created many of the inventions that came out of Bridgeport.
@@theselflovefrequency it’s an interesting story! The native population were actually incentivized to live in the newly settled American colonies in Liberia, under the Monroe administration. There are many stories of American indigenous families emigrating to Monrovia in particular
I used to go to Riff Raff records and id cop White Flash tapes from east Main...got some gold fronts from the hi ho too lol

Thank you for sharing this. And, where did the original native settlers go?
