Oddly I have become homesick only three years after going back home to Chicago. I spent a week driving all over town (I still don't know what I was looking for then). That shot of Harpers Court brought back memories. We used to go the Chances R and enjoy the burgers and play pong, the first video game we ever saw.
Here's an unexpected treat for me, at time 1:43, you have a photo of North Sedgwick. The little green 2 flat right next to the "L" is where my grandmother lived during the 50s. All that's long gone. Thanks for those memories.
Thank you for the photos. They bring back a lot of great memories of growing up and exploring Chicago in the '60s and '70s. Very fitting back music too.
My Dad had a boat in Montrose Harbor in the 70s. I remember so much of this. I wasn't in any of these pictures, but I could have been. I live in Florida now, but whenever I think of home, I think of Chicago. Home sweet home.
Facts. This city is unrecognizable now... It's not just the skyline and the buildings that have changed, it's the people. Too many out of towners moved in a d changed the culture of the city for the worst.
Chicago isn’t alone in that transformation. Other big major cities like Boston, New York City, Seattle, San Francisco, and Los Angeles all underwent that same negative transition. They are now all very expensive and corporate.
I do to, the city looks a lil "run down" rusty and I love it. There's another one on here. Seeing downtown state st have those porno shows. And obviously selling prostitution. Every big city had that. Were only rust belt that is still swimming in gold
Thanks for posting these, Slide 61 is actually the parking garage at Old Town next to the old Piper's Alley theater on North ave west of Wells (about 236 w. North Ave). It's a very distinctive structure with the 1970s styled oval portholes and round light fixtures (long since removed). Also, the slide at 53 just before the Standard Oil (Aon) looks to be an unnamed alleyway possiblynear Cermak at the old RR Donnelly warehouse. Thanks a gain for posting these. subscribed.
Yeah, I was gonna say that looked like the store near Old Town, but the captions moved too fast to be sure. I knew a girl who worked at Ripley's Believe it or not
Oh, but how can that be? The comment section clearly declares that any decade before the current one was the best of times. Just an absolute slice of heaven on earth those good ol' days were.
@@patrickhawkinson8399 Not true. The 1980s was the worst decade since the 1930s. The Teens was horrific and the 2020s is shaping up to be a real nightmare but looking at all aspects of American society the 1980s was really bad. We peaked in '73, around the time that Watergate broke.
@charlesandrews2360 The 1980's? I thought that was the decade of optimism? Morning in America. Poppy music, hairspray, and drums with lots of reverb. How can that be bad? It was so much fun.
It was my once beautiful city. Started 9th grade in 1976. I had a great childhood in South Chicago represented at 2:23 and 6:51. Very sad to see what it's become.
I was born and raised on the southwest side of Chicago by Midway Airport. It's really gone downhill. I do get a chance every now and then to visit Chicago to visit my parent's graves at Resurrection Cemetery. Man, this city has really tanked.
Maybe others have already mentioned this, but slide 53 is a view of an unidentified alley presumably somewhere on the North Side. It is mislabeled as being the Standard Oil Building under construction. That description is actually applicable to the next slide, number 54. Don't get me wrong - this is a fine video with many provocative images. The slide descriptions are very accurate and really quite helpful.
I grew up in this city's suburbs in the 70's. I still live in the far south suburbs. Left a couple of times for the military but other than that I have lived and worked here for 65 years!
Chicago used to be such a nice city. Now you can get an automated ticket for driving into a bike lane. These pix remind of us of how nice it was back then before all the bs
Thanks for posting this historical content. Despite the modern high-rise construction apparent in these photos, 1970s Chicago had a distinct industrial grit to it that is not as prominent today.
After seeing these photos I realized I had been all around the city. I lived on East Delaware and would walk everywhere. I'd hoof it all the way to Roosevelt and back.
It’s crazy how people were literally streaming out of the city at the time. That changed significantly from the late 80s into the aughts. It ebbs and flows I suppose.
Hey I live about a block and a half from the second picture on Argyle, that photo was taken the year I was born, you can see the old AON insurance Bldg in the background 🙂
Kingsbury Was home to Hwavy Industry and Manufacturting now home to upscale commercial strips and multimillion dollar homes General Iron recently shut down irs operation at 1909 N Clifton on Kingsbury
Man it's great how technology is so advanced that they can put these great colors in old photos. It was like I was really there and I was born in the 80s. Seeing that Walgreens on the Chicago Ave and Michigan Ave photo makes me smile because I'm always around there, along with state St and Madison Ave photo, and also along with about 5 more photos!!
Slide #30 is mislabeled It actually is a picture - looking north on Kedzie (NOT Kinze) at 55th street. Talman S&L was located on the SE corner of 55th & Kedzie. Otherwise... Very nice shots - Thanks for posting
I figured someone would catch #30 label error. I lived at 54th & California from 1969-1983, watched Talman grow from just the corner building to almost a block-long institution. St. Gall was across Kedzie from it; the Colonial Restaurant was across 55th street from it (I think that was the name of it).
Slide 56, that parking lot on Kinzie is between the north branch of the Chicago river and Kingsbury st. That lot is now where the East Bank Club now sits, built in 1980, I worked there for 18 years and I know that entire area like the back of my hand, you can see the Grand ave bridge in the background and the big red building on the right side of the screen is the Sexton building, from what I was told they manufactured office equipment though by the time I was running around that area it was turned into lofts.
Chicago is one of that places that exudes character, I got that feeling that physical reality is anchored in the past, as we're moving forward everything is kind of loosing the real essence of things, could be delusion or not...
whole time I'm expecting the opening notes to Pink Floyd's Wish You Were Here to start. Anyway, in #5 I worked at the Montgomery Ward tower looking west down Chicago Ave when the company closed in 2001. You can also see it being building during opening/closing credits of Good Times.
I grew up in Chicago and it's sad for what it was to what it is today. I moved away and will never go back it's turn into something I don't even recognize.
For starters no place you grow up in ever stays the same, so get over it. That said, I've been to today's Chicago many times and have never had an experience that has made me not want to make a return trip other than the cost of travel to get there and back.
This video shows almost the whole city unlike the media with their video of scared tatics and fake news. Chicago is 3rd or 4th largest city in N.America and has more beautiful buildings than most other cities. I visited every year since the early 60s. The ghettos came from the Government's failed programs and drugs. Some People don't know truth. Hoosiers, Hillbillies, buckeyes always admired Chicago and many visit often. We all have a city we admire outside of our own city, and the Midwest picked Chicago!
Grew up in Kankakee an hour south and would accompany my parents on business. How many kids can say they sat in a window booth of a submarine shop and watched the sears tower get built?

@@iwouldliketoorderanumber1b79 No back at ya. It opened in May 1973. Tenant work continued into '74. What prompted the query was that there are many other pictures from the mid and late 70's.
It seems like only yetserday that I saw these cars on the streets. More than anything, it seems that automobiles really freeze a picture in time like nothing else in Human history.
Great observation. For historians, cars are indeed largely what index fossils are for the paleontologist. Store signs will often be replaced only after longer spans. Hair styles may often tell one more than store signs at least in certain parts of the decades after WWII, when they seem to have been very uniform and short-lived.
Kingsbury st once home to heavy industry and Manufacturting now upscale commercial strips and multimillion dollar homes General Iron just shut its scrap yard on Kingsbury and Clifton and was considered the last of its kind on Kingsbury
This is largely already the world of today - just with much fewer airbags and without Internet. Some computers did already exist, with corporations and universities.
Yeah, Chicago must be reincarnating in China currently, like so many other US-American cities. It's itself developing into a reincarnation of Cologne, with Milwaukee for Leverkusen.
I am surprised I survived dodging all those huge, framed vehicles on the streets of Chicago growing up, then came along Unibody. constructed ones that hit the market. and it was a little safer, also crash dummies. helped out
With a few exceptions, the only differences between then and now are the older car models and the way people dressed. The buildings are the same, and so is the asphalt on the streets LOL
