Nass, Wow! another great upload. My Italian American Grandmother (1892-1982) lived in New Jersey but went to New York a lot. These scenes would have looked familiar to her in her youth! She remembers organ grinders with their monkey's collecting money from people. She also remembers quite a bit of horse manure on the streets and the deafening sound of clanking from the streetcars! Men would tip their hat to a lady passing by and the ladies would smile and nod their head back to him. She went to Coney Island Amusement Park pretty often and said she once had a horse-burger she did not like. Which was amusing. She remembers people would dress their Sunday best when going to silent movies also! Thanks for the blast into the past.
I find the minor detail of how the videographer pans up toward the skyscrapers very cool. The equipment he's using isn't small, and him carefully adjusting the camera causes those little jerking movements as he tries to capture the full scale of the architecture. Seeing the amusement rides is something else, I never knew those even existed around this time.
Wyattinous, Coney Island Amusement park opened in 1895. before radio even. Yes, the park had early rides! I have a book about it. My grandmother used to go there in her youth and later years too.😊
@sonnycorleone2602 that's actually really cool! It makes me wonder how prevalent accidents were at that time considering ride machinery was a brand new idea.
@ Yes, some of the rides did not look safe. In Luna Park they had elephants walking through the park. I saw old scenes of this! Wish I had a time capsule to see this in person! 😊
According to Wikipedia, there are only 10 people known to still be living who were alive when this was filmed. Could be more or less of course, but its wild to think about.
The three walk-away’s I get from this era is that it was hot, guys sweated like pigs in their suits and there is no effective way to clean-up after horses. Aside from that another wonderful segment of time. Looks like this might have been a film promoting sightseeing, the man and the lady, I would like to know the plot and their ending. The amusement rides were inventive. A few years earlier Times Square looked like a rural street. Radio wasn’t even a thing to speak of in 1910. The next twenty years in New York would be amazing. The Hippodrome was five years old then. The Times Building (No. 1 Times Square) looks incredible. Great restoration, thank you, NASS.
All towns and cities had staff dedicated solely to manure collection. There is actually a good clip on youtube somewhere of a vintage street cleaner with horse and dump wagon just patrolling along. He would stop and get off and shovel it up. They worked every day as far as I know. People nowadays make a big deal about it...
You can see some of the changing hat styles here. Caps and flat straw hats were replacing derby ones. In another two decades, fedoras would be seen and by the 1940's they pretty much replaced the straw hats.
That "Seeing New York" car got around lol...also , I wonder who the couple is that first appears about halfway thru when leaving the Plaza Hotel and then goes to Coney Island..clearly they were hired to do this..I wonder if they were known actors of the day...
Oh yeah? I was there and I distinctly remember saying "you know Beatrice, one day we'll all be watching us on a handheld device using the interwebs or whatever that is"
Must Have Been Filmed In A Wealthier Part If The City. Not Much Horse Manure On The Street For People To Step Over. Looks Like The Flat Iron Building Was Just Recently Completed Not Much Earlier In 1902. Good Remastering Job Nass. 😊😊😊...
Has anyone noticed that there are couple together in every scene throughout this video? They first appear at 3:25. They look well to do and are smartly dressed. I think this is their personal video, but being filmed by a photographer for them. If you notice the boat scene, they are the two sitting at the front 😊
Yeah, I noticed it too. I went back and I first saw them at the open air market. Then coming from the hotel, water slide, then walking past the, what looked like Greek or Roman period columns, then paying to go into the water park, then coming down the in the canal boat, then down the water slide water park, then playing with the dirty pigeons, then on the tea cup ride. Pretty wild...
This was not a personal film. It was made by The Thomas Edison film company, There were no other independent film companies, or studios offering such services back then.
i wish i had a time machine so i can go back to the year 1910 newyork and see what fashion clothes they were and cars they drove who wants to go back in time with me
I LOVE the architecture! While some of the glass towers of today have their style, they can't compare to the visual appeal of those old buildings, too many of which were demolished, more's the pity.
Architecture in general everywhere in the world was more beautiful unfortunately. It's weird that we have way more technology but somehow we build so ugly.
First I would like to see a few seconds of the original film and then the remastered one. Are you remastering using AI? Maybe you don't need to do 60 fps because frames are added that distort the image, 24 fps will be enough? Regards.
Yeah. I was thinking just the same. They have no idea how the world will change shortly. I don't know how to feel about it. You know, I was just thinking. What if in the future people are saying that about US. It's a scary thought.
The well dressed man with the hat with the front brim turned up and his lady friend, play a prominent roll in this piece. They show up in many segments. Wonder what their story was?
It's where the 1 Times Square building stands now. It was The Times Building, original home of The New York Times, for which the area gets its name Herold Square, where the Flatiron Building is, was named after The New York Herold.
@@SmithMrCoronaI believe Herald Square was named because of the New York Times Herald torn down long ago in front of Macy’s. The Flatiron seen in this is 23rd where Fifth Avenue and Broadway intersect. Perhaps you’re thinking of the Madison Square neighborhood area. The Flatiron Building was never “Herald Square”.
@@OSTARAEB4 You're 100% right. Don't know why I got my geography mixed up. Herald Square is between the modern-day K-Town and where the old Gimbels was.

Most ethnic groups lived in their own neighborhoods back then. The Germans and Jews typically lived in the Lower East Side. The Irish congregated in areas around the meat packing district and an area referred to as Hell's Kitchen. A couple of generations back they lived in a notorious area called the Five Points. Blacks tended to congregate in parts of Brooklyn and Harlem. The Upper West Side and what is now known as the West Village were for the respectable middle class and professionals. People in the arts also managed to sneak in sometimes. The Upper East Side was where the well off tended to congregate with the three avenues closest to Central Park (5th, Madison and Park) being the more prestigious addresses for those in, or hoping to be admitted to, high society.

Amazing video what fascinates me is the mix of horse drawn vehicles along side the motor car 😮
Whoa! AMAZING! …Could study the details for hours. Thanks much!
Wonderful, amazing! The sound design really brings this film to life.
Thank you❤
Great footage. Thank you. If only New York was that civilised today.....
Thank you
Yeah. I find all these videos of the past somewhat sad because it proves we're living in a dystopia.

I very doubut about this, no one still😢alreqdy
O wow, I wish I could go back in time and stay at one of those hotels. Thanks
Thanks ;)

Another fantastic video! Shows how awesome NYC was…..how clean and safe it was……before the animals showed up.
True.
Even with horse drawn carriages there's less fecal matter in the street than you find today.
“Seeing New-York”!
What a lovely coincidence… )
Imagine the sights they saw.
Little did these people realise that their legacy would live on through the medium of the Internet
А ещё они представить не могли что их будут смотреть в туале на телефоне 😂
@@ВиталийЕгор-д4у😅 exactley imagine if they could come back for a day what they would think 🤔

Very well done!💯
There is a couple in several scenes. Private film?

Probably actors hired for the day. They appear in several of these types of old films
@@SmithMrCoronaYes they were probably acting like someone mentioned, or a couple hired! They looked great together and had fun in the amusement park!
i wish i had a time machine so i can go back to the year 1910 newyork and see what fashion clothes they were and cars they drove who wants to go back in time with me
What's stopping you from dressing like a slob now?
Love this channel.
Kids were everywhere. Much more part of the fabric
I LOVE the architecture! While some of the glass towers of today have their style, they can't compare to the visual appeal of those old buildings, too many of which were demolished, more's the pity.
Interesting to see the transition into the Automobile Age.
American architecture used to be so beautiful.
Architecture in general everywhere in the world was more beautiful unfortunately. It's weird that we have way more technology but somehow we build so ugly.
@@Hani_Santaarchitecture used to be an art.
If o my they knew what a train wreck it would become.

My grandparents lived in Manhattan in 1910. Grandpa was 4, Grandma was 2. They eventually moved to Westchester County.

even the original had those little problems at the beginning
1:33 Even motorized sightseeing was already invented.
1910, the year two of my grandparents arrived at Ellis Island from Russia.
Turn of the century Russian immigrants destroyed America
вы знаете русский? )
Não tinha pessoas obesas.
Amazing 😍
3:46....Check out the athletic guy jumping the rope!
Странно он перепрыгнул! )
Obviously showing off for the camera , unless he had been asked to do it by the operator.
The camera operator must have been involved with the " Seeing New York " tour 😂.
Sehr interessanter Rückblick in eine Zeit vor 115 Jahren
Great film. Who is the dude in the white hat with the turned up brim? He appears a lot 😊
Folk from all walks of life in the great city pass our camera, preserved in time…
Wow pre- the fed, the titanic, Spanish flu, world war 1 etc.
Yeah. I was thinking just the same. They have no idea how the world will change shortly. I don't know how to feel about it. You know, I was just thinking. What if in the future people are saying that about US. It's a scary thought.

That corner triangle building sure looks like The Continental!
We are definitely “ Seeing New York”.
They were closer to the 18th century than to us.
is that opening the original Astor place?
It's where the 1 Times Square building stands now. It was The Times Building, original home of The New York Times, for which the area gets its name
Herold Square, where the Flatiron Building is, was named after The New York Herold.

03:47 Dude just floats over the rope.😂
New York City. New York is the whole state.
Luna Park was nice for one hot , single minute. It's been a dump for over 100 years.
Today's Luna Park is not the same one you see in the film. The original was demolished in the '40s.
And they threw it all away.
Another transition in progress: from carriages to automobiles!
Talking movies and film didn’t come around until 1928 but some how there’s sound, I guess
6:00 Judy the elephant spotted....says online was at Coney Island in 1911 along with Jennie the democrat donkey. Amazing old footage.
why do you scrub out the sky and building tops
And there's the young Don Corleone at the fruit and vegetable market!
3:55 did you notice none of the trams have tramlines? seems this technology was lost after reset(war)
7:15 looks like the flighg rats was saldy popular😢
Nice see it
❤🎉❤🎉
❤
Anyone know the locations?
In the description box it has all the locations listed.
El edificio de la esquina tan famoso,que a dia de hoy esta desabitado por problematica tengo entendido....

In just 15 years, women will be wearing short dresses!
Badly, cheaply done.
where the blacks/ aboriginals?
Exactly…)
There were, but in a highly segregated America in 1910, they wouldn't have been so numerous in areas shown.
Most ethnic groups lived in their own neighborhoods back then. The Germans and Jews typically lived in the Lower East Side. The Irish congregated in areas around the meat packing district and an area referred to as Hell's Kitchen. A couple of generations back they lived in a notorious area called the Five Points.

@@davidrawzen8232 there were no black people in newyork at that time
This was before NYC was ruined
