I’ve got an incredibly cool video here for you to watch today that transports you back in time to New York City in the 1940s. Video restorer NASS remastered old footage of New York City in the 1940s, enhancing the color, sound, and general appearance. He also boosted the resolution to HD and the speed to 60 fps. The video came with the following note:

Shows how millions of people live a crowded and hurried New York existence. Gives an Overview of various industrial and cultural activities.” Shows the Automat, Empire State and Chrysler Buildings, Garment District, Times Square, Broadway.

I love watching these videos as it gives us a fascinating look at what life was like in a time many of us never got to see with our own eyes.
