Love the video! Love that you left the radio on! The commercials are epic and the video is great! I miss old Boston and I was only 6 when this was recorded!
Amazing! I visited Boston last week and actually walked around this area. Looks so different in this video. Beautiful park now in front of the Boston Harbor Hotel and the wharfs in the area. I never visited before the "Big Dig" tunnels were built so never got to see all this. I first visited in 2004 and sections of the old bridges were being torn down near the then Fleet Center.
@luisrp - You might want to also check my North Station Slideshow vid, which has photos I shot around the North Station T and the Garden in 1990. Just about everything I photographed there is now long gone as well..
This footage is amazing! Thanks for this
I remember tunnel radio back in the day.
Gotta love that traffic!
Tunnel radio. Wow, this is great to watch. I drove through there four days a week for work back then.

Was that only in the Tunnel when they had that little Tunnel Radio thingy
Omg I totally forgot about tunnel radio!
For the record. Saturday afternoon July 30 1988
Ah, the good old days when we didn’t loathe Roger Clemons. Sox on radio always in those days.
@Jsd8675 The speed liimit was still 55 back then. Plus people did drive a bit better then in my opinion.
Looks pretty similar to Andrew Station today! Intesterting to see the Dunkies still standing along with what I think is the pizza joint.
Looks like he’s driving either a Dodge St Regis or Chrysler Fifth Ave
@mediadude08 - That's actually steam venting from an underground main. Kind of common around downtown Boston streets..
Ned Martin makes this video seem real
Wow, an Audi Fox with the missing bumper cover at around 3:15... Those cars are extinct in the wild.
I can hear your narration a little bit. "That was Tunnel Radio in the South Station Tunnel."
3:15 is a real Boston merge lol I kind of chuckled that the car from California (the maroon car (Toyota?)) finally peaces out and changes lanes instead of standing his ground and merging successfully. You gotta drive aggressively around here.
@mediadude08 - Yeah, just notes-to-self...
Do they still have Tunnel Radio?

I think they do.
Something's burning in the middle of the road at 6:21.
Hmm... seems like people drived slower then
People drove slower then

Yes, speed limit was also 55. Overdrive transmissions were just starting to take over, but there were still plenty of 70s and older vehicles with lower gears
