    Look how big the Pacific Electric interurban cars were that are rolling down the middle of the street. The PE still had a sizeable passenger route system at this time. It would finally discontinue operating in 1961. If you look at the railroad tracks in the street notice that there are three rails for each direction. This is because the LA streetcars used a narrow gauge and the Pacific Electric used standard (4'-8.5") gauge. Also, note the STOP-GO semaphore traffic light swinging its GO arm out at 1:55. Thanks for sharing!

    @@newsweathertraffic18 I heard about that. Mental illness has always been with us, but has accelerated since WW2, and especially since 2000. there are many reasons, but I believe humanity is declining on all fronts, only a few of us see that , as most people are too caught up in "living their lives" cogs in a gearcase . a.i will win out . Although nostalgic, these films document how life rolled by us, and we long for what we never experienced, thinking it must be of a better time. A step from that past, put us here today, and forward to a future with which we might not be too pleased.

    It was a great city then, till many businesses branched out to other areas. It had about 2 decades left. Now its a pale shell of what it use to be. NASS is the best!

    I'm trying to figure out if this is before, during or after The war... The newest cars that I could identify could have been either '41s or '47s. I imagine that with gas rationing during WWII these streets seem too busy for that time period. I didn't realize that S&H Green Stamps were around in those days [4:47]

    I'm no expert, but the car horns sound about right to me, albeit maybe the honks are more numerous than they should have been. There's an occasional old-timey "ahoogah" type horn in the soundtrack, but since there are at least a few 1920s/early 30s cars in the video, it's plausible that there would be a few older-style honks in as well.

    Those streetlights look very old and beautiful. I don't see all the controlled lights like we have now either. Their control over us has gotten crazy and sadly most people believe it is a good thing. I bet those people did not have to be licensed and pay for rip off car insurance!

    We probably would have mental breakdown, we would not know how to handle it, with no fast food restaurants and great transportation, red cars, etc. And nice and clean streets, plus NO FATSO’s, and women in dresses, absolutely wonderful. I want to go back, I was a young boy (5 years old) back then. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

    There were hash houses, corner cafes and cafeterias galore. Dime coffee, 20¢ burgers, and pie alamode with shakes and more. Lunch specials were 80¢ and a matinee was 5¢. No a/c, but many places had refrigeration.

    Oh glorious, glorious! It only took one policeman to control traffic. He’d be murdered today if he tried doing that. Many people abound because there were no malls. Everyone went shopping downtown until the early 60s when malls began taking over. My dad says you would always dress up in suits going downtown even in the 1950s. He got to see the best of L.A. before it became a slum starting around the mid 70s.

    People full of energy in 1946... And no microplastics all around like today... Microplastics inflame our brain over the years and this chronic neuro inflamation leaves us depressed, nervous, without energy and with increased appetite. Folks in 1946 had better mental health and more energy...
