    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..

    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.

    @mediadude08 - That's actually steam venting from an underground main. Kind of common around downtown Boston streets..

    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.

    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
