Manhattan in 1902: Amazing Footage Restored to Life
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 май 2023
- Time travel back to New York city 1902 and a busy street scene on Lower Broadway Manhattan. Enhanced using neural networks, colorized and up-scaled to 4K 60fps with added sound.
The bustle of early 20th century city life is palpable, with throngs of pedestrians crowding the sidewalks and daringly jaywalking. Horse-drawn carriages, wagons and streetcars are plentiful, creating a lively rhythm as they traverse north to south. Occasionally meandering across Broadway when the ebb and flow of traffic permits. Men, smartly dressed in coats and ties, sport either a bowler or a top hat, adding a touch of elegance to the scene. The few women in sight are adorned in street-length skirts and wide-brimmed hats, mirroring the fashionable style of the era. A solitary policeman stands guard, his vigilant gaze sweeping over the bustling scene. In stark contrast to the dynamic street below, the camera remains the only stationary element, perched at a second-story level, silently capturing the vibrant tapestry of life unfolding over 120 years ago.
Lower Broadway is located in Manhattan, New York City. It refers to the southern portion of the famous Broadway street, which starts at Bowling Green, near Battery Park, and extends northwards through the Financial District and Tribeca. Lower Broadway is known for its historical landmarks and iconic buildings, such as the Charging Bull statue, Trinity Church, and the Woolworth Building.

I LOVE these videos! Please keep em coming!👏👏👏♥️♥️♥️
Always a pleasure!

What a time to live in
It was sad, watching that one one poor horse having to carry all those heavy boxes.. :( Outside of that, I enjoyed taking a glimpse back in time.
I was about to write the same thing. That really breaks my heart💔
Horses still work like that in some farms even today. Farmers who can't afford (or maybe don't want to invest in) new machinery still have their horses work the fields, pulling heavy carts and crops.
@_Just_Another_Guy I am well aware that some people use horses to carry things. In fact, my uncles and grandfather were farmers. That wasn't the point. The point was that I felt badly, as did some others that the one horse in the video was carrying a very heavy load.
They are bred to work, as long as they are fed and kept well. Some breeds of dogs love to work too and go nuts if given nothing to do.
Thank you for including some of the original footage as well.
Oh, I love to watch your videos!
I really enjoy them, I can peek in to the past with your help. Thank You!❤
If you thought crossing the street in NYC was dangerous now...
Everything was limited to horse trot speed at maximum, and since drivers understood that people would be crossing all the time (no jaywalking laws, because the street belongs to everybody, not cars) everybody was yielding politely. Of course there were accidents but it wasn't terrible.
@@nullifye7816 You do know that people often did get run over in that time, don't you? Especially by the horse-drawn street cars. NYC was far worse then than now. Cholera ran unchecked because they didn't have proper sewage. Brownstones became popular for a reason. Their color. Note they were built with stoops rising up from the street where, uh, stuff ran. Garbage piled high at the curbs because there was no trash pickup unless you were weatlhy enough to pay for it. Only those who could afford brownstones for that matter. Tenements didn't usually have clean running water and had inadequate numbers of outhouses in the alleys behind them. People resorted to chamber pots and often just dumped them out of their windows. You had to dodge sewage running the in the streets (both human and animal waste) and look out for it being dumped from above. Crime was even more rampant. When the horses died, they just left them where they dropped. Politicians were so corrupt that the modern day, well, they certainly aren't worse. This all only changed because NYC was eventually forced to deal with the cholera outbreaks from the filth.
@@BlazeDuskdreamer Ahhh the good ol' days!
@@pargolf3158 lol - Ikr. Movies and TV and books like to depict the Victorian Age so charmingly but if you dive deep into the 1800s - yikes! It's pretty horrifying. I was setting a fictional story in NYC of the late 1800s and dove deep. Conclusion: so glad I wasn't alive then.
@@pargolf3158 What? No air conditioning, no faceshields,no gloves, no fans, no radio and TV and internet? C'MON MAN! 😁
Me encantaria vivir en esa epoca
I could watch these ALL day~~~
It's amazing to see the colour footage contrasting with the old silent black and white footage...gets me everytime. Just love the quick snapshot of the "old style city noise"...it's unnerving but fascinating at the same time.
Wonderful video ❤ but sad too that poor horse pulling that wood 😢
That's exactly what I thought!
@@SibylleLeon me too
Same!😭
That's what horses are for
@@CSAccetura No, it's not. They're "for" running wild in herds. And if they get domesticated, they're "for" being treated well and not overloaded.
Your work is amazing
I am SO hypnotised! Thankyou so much for these, love them so much!! 💯😍👧
The color makes it much more relatable than old black and white films adds another dimension to it
The sound and animation is what does it for me. I've seen plenty of restored pictures.
Brilliant work... fabulous enhancements!
Cheers GD
This is AWESOME! Thx for sharing
Thanks for taking us back in time ❤️
Love it!
Looks...civilised!
Scanning to find someone without a hat... Impossible! The one rebel who publicly bared his head was immediately arrested.
Those trams are really interesting. They are so automated and side by side with horses and carriages? Odd juxtaposition of the old and the newer. Fascinating look at how 'real' these days were but the monochrome always makes it look 'other-wordly' as if we 'lived in black and white' K ; )
Those trams are what us Americans call cable cars and were pulled by an underground steel rope. Later they 2ere electrified by an underground 3rd rail at 600 volts D.C. I am a New Yorker who grew up in NYC during the Mad Men era and I know my New York City history.
@@luislaplume8261 Thank you for that. I wondered how these machines were moving and gliding without means. How clever and they looked so modern. Cable Cars in British English means those things that carry us over mountains! Different Englishes ; )
@@luislaplume8261 In the San Francisco Bay area, they're still commonly referred to as trams.
Really? Know the term cable car but never associated it with a physical cable. Thanks.
@@_Just_Another_Guy They are? Well I am a New Yorker who grew up in NYC during the Mad Men era and the last tram that was also the last tram in New York State was in my old hometown of NYC when in April 1957 the Queensborough Bridge Street Railway ran across the Queensborough Bridge from Long Island City in Queens to the 2nd Avenue and 59th Street underground trolley terminal on the East Side of Manhattan.
I feel sorry for that horse that entered bottom left at 0:32. They loaded that poor thing's wagon up! Hopefully they were light boxes. I don't know how it could have pulled that much if not.
Fun times when there was real horse power on the roads!🐴 :D
Not much fun for the horses - some of them are pulling outrageously huge loads - and it's a punishing place for a horse to work. Always on a hard surface, heat, exhaust fumes, they all look on the thin side. If a horse was lucky, he'd have a good, kind owner.
The ambulance was invented for transporting sick or hurt horses - not for humans. That's how important the horse was for the life of the city, but we sure don't repay them well.
And shit.
@@susantunbridge4612 "The ambulance was invented for transporting sick or hurt horses - not for humans." This is an absolutely absurd statement.
@@susantunbridge4612 I always have respect for animal lovers, good on you Susan.
I grew up in NYC, born in Manhattan, and a history buff. The Animal Medical Center of NY located on the east side was built as a result of the need for humane treatment including disposal of old or diseased animals, because as the city grew at the turn of the 19th century people had to stop throwing their animals in the East River to dispose of them. All my pets saw top notch veterinarians at The Animal Medical Center when I was a kid in the 1980s!!
Wow.....thnx beautiful NY
Awesome 👌 👏 👍
Do you know where on Broadway? It looks like 23rd Street, by Greeley Square and the Flatiron Building, which was completed in 1902 and would have been the tallest building in the world at the time and a central point in the city.
You sure? It looks like 5th Ave. and 42nd St. (the NY Public Library and Bryant Park would be off-camera on the left).
Even back then they overloaded merchandise on wagons! Sheeeesh. I am a New Yorker who grew up in NYC during the Mad Men era and even then they still do it!
❤❤❤
映画の中の世界です！
自動車など見たこともない人たちだなんて・・
馬のひづめの音など全く聞きなれない不思議な世界・・素晴らしい‼️
Colorized with Palette FM or Deep Exemplar Based Colorizer? Clarity is great, but too many color fluctuations and not very natural colors if you ask me. I have yet to find a great video colorizer...
ruclips.net/video/-dF1IjU0Njc/видео.htmlsi=FagfWye8f1kMyAWh
This film is ...I believe original color. It is extremely hard to color anything even close to this well. It's from around 1903 and a few later shottings.
カラーだとまるで古さを感じさせませんね～映画の撮影現場みたい😍
Was life actually that much slower then, or has this footage been slowed down a little?
if not, lets face it, we dont have long to go.
Looks like this could be W 42nd St & 6th Ave NW corner of Bryant Park?
O vaxtlar bele hündür binalarin oldugunu bilmirdim
Ten years later the cars moved in.
Ha ha, 1:38. I'm sure Jason saw this .
Is this 5th Ave?
The very few ladies are drowned in a sea of men!!
My curiosity always leads to this question regarding horses being used regularly on the streets, were there dedicated pooper scooper people that tried to clean the streets from horse crap or did trolleys, and early cars and people just step on it?
There were street cleaners that scooped it into barrels which would be sent off to make fertilizer. People would try to avoid walking by the barrels because of the smell.
Do you have any vintage glamour videos that feature African-American men and women?
working on a 1930s film as we speak from Harlem
Could AI now build the scenes into a 3D model and do real time honing of the accuracy by adding up and averaging the information from the individual frames and then rebuilding the entire video clip from all of that info? Better yet, creating 3d explorable environments viewable in unreal engine 5. How about combining multiple videos, photographs, to create large areas of the city in this way for certain timeframes?
The old version is far more interesting.
Looks almost as chaotic as Cairo. But it works without tons of regulations? Why>? Reasonable people.
Now do New York in 2023.
No Rioting,people sleeping on sidewalk People seem peaceful respectful
Yeah, just slums, pollution, Tammany Hall, the Five Points Gang ... NYC's *always* had a shitty side.
@@user-eb5cb6ud1p True but now the"Shitty"is in the majority Criminals were prosecuted once upon a time
I can only see RGB people and vehicles
Wow look at that overpopulation
Современный вопрос:
1. На каком топливе ездят "трамваи", у них нет "рогов" и рельс с током?
2. Конная тяга, но для коней в городе нужны спец. места с сеном, овсом, и для лквидации навоза. Где конезаводы, ведь лошади - животные непросты в обслуживании?
3. Откуда столько людей, если в начале 19хх была зачистка - война-ликвидация населения?
4. Много народа, а значит нет продуктового и текстильного кризиса, что это за город и откуда эти люди?
5. Нет проводов со столбами, значит есть энергия другая и связь. Но какая?
Пожалуйста, прочитайте немного истории.
> Трамваи не беспроводные. Они такие же, как канатные дороги в Сан-Франциско, тянутся за счет движущихся тросов между рельсами.
> Нью-Йорк был заселен 400 лет назад. Он всегда был крупным портом и иммиграционным центром и быстро стал крупнейшим городом Северной Америки.
> В Нью-Йорке никогда не было чисток, войн или других катастроф. Почему вы этому верите?
> США, как и Россия, производят огромное количество зерна и мяса. Продовольствие доставлялось в Нью-Йорк по железной дороге.
> Никакой «другой энергии» не было. Электрические провода прокладывались в подземных коробах так же, как они прокладываются сегодня.
Серьезно, никаких загадок нет.
these are obviously just npc's
All trams are wireless!
Sigh. If you look up the history of NYC transit you'll find they're *cable cars,* just like the ones in San Francisco. They were pulled by moving cables that ran in the opening between the rails.
More: Around the turn of the 20th c. several big cities installed cable-car systems so they wouldn't have overhead wiring. The systems turned out to be too complex and expensive to be practical, and were soon replaced with standard trams, or in NYC's case, subway (metro) systems. Even San Francisco ripped out most of their lines - only three are still running, and today they're mostly tourist attractions.
Peace & Life Everlasting with Jesus ❤️
HEAVEN is the dwelling place not only of God, but also of the angelic beings who worship him. Through the grace of God, heaven becomes also the eternal dwelling place of all those who through faith have become God’s children. For them, to be for ever in the presence of God is to be in paradise.
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.
Deuteronomy 4:29 But if from there you seek the Lord your God, you will find him if you seek him with all your heart and with all your soul ❤😊
Никто не задумывался, на чем ездят эти безконтактные трамвайчики? А, бензиновое поколение?)))
Канатная тяга, как в Сан-Франциско
❤❤❤
