drive through Boston

Driving in Boston 50 years ago

  What a neat idea: Here's a video, from The Boston Globe,  of what it was like to drive though Boston  and  Cambridge half a century ago. I remember it well from summer jobs I had on the Hub's waterfront in the mid-'60's.

Those hideous cars and terrible drivers! It was rather a gritty city then. Now much of it has been Manhattanized.
