Cumberland looked like a booming town back then

Even more so earlier...it's called the Queen City for a reason. :)

It wasn't. The population decline in Cumberland had started a good 20 years prior to this looking at census data. It still didn't have the major hits it took in the 80's and 90s though so it still looks to be in good health but the decline had already started.

Wow, don't even look close to the same place.. some areas are good others idk.. pretty neat to see it then and now, need to make a new video

came back a year later to say dont do that we dont need to let them see us like this😂

I love Cumberland and would love to be back if the beach was closer!

Omg..the old Star restaurant

The plane in this clip was involved in a fatal accident a year later in 1973.

Sadly, it looks bad for the most part now. And the only businesses that come are hotels and restaurants in lavale. It's like we're a lost cause now.

That's what the city administrators wanted. Bring in the prisons and drugs. Build a road over the top of the city and watch everything fall apart. I came back home after marrying, walked down Baltimore Street and cried.

The highway ripped out the ghetto fifty years ago and it backfired. Now the entire town is a ghetto. The highway opened the floodgates for drug traffickers. This is the worst place I have ever lived. I deserve better but I have nowhere to go.
