in 1963 a camera was strapped to a car hood, and driven through Boston. In 2015, the drive was duplicated by Mat Cronin and video put on splitscreen for comparison/contrast


click the link for the video ( until I can figure out how to embed it)

It will take you through Central Square in Cambridge, over the Longfellow Bridge, through Government Center, South Boston, the Back Bay, and finally, along Storrow Drive.

  1. That's a very cool video and I like the music, "Green Onions" played along with it. The person who put up the video says the first film was shot in '58 or maybe '63. I see some early 60's cars in it so I'd say it's filmed in '63. ;)
