    Places always seem to look better from way back, it’s the same when I see old photos of my country, must be the nostalgia and black and white film

    Some of the locations looked really nice a long time ago and look really nice now, but there were decades between when they were boarded up and neglected.

    What is with the hokey scratchy film effects? These are still pictures!

    Some of the older colorless images seem nicer, but with color might look like the current ones. The lack of color makes them look more uniform.

    Very few. Should have kept a w/shutters look, less neglect would have been a huge help and replaced more trees or added them. Why none tried a Colonial look.... I will never know that shutters work at and each a unique fron door and out-front latern and low-level flowers hanging from windo sills. Clean streets and decent sidwalks would go a long way also.

    Why didn't Philadelphia have any filmmakers taking footage of the city years ago? Just still photos? That can't be correct.

    I am sure there are of Center Chity the downtown region and wealthy areas. Film before the 1930s was more the silent type that needed intense lighting and was very unstable and would decay if not in dark, cool and dry conditions stored along with would have had to be pro made as no home film was yet had.... We should have some frome key areas that AI clearing, stablizing may be on youtube. Old acitate celluloid film was highly unstable.... Easy search as other city cores at least do... 5:59

    No AC. No reliable electric service. Coal stoves. Yes, the past was so much better. 😂

    Some residents have buthered once beautiful homes and neighborhoods. 4:45 20th & Columbia is literally a shock to see elegant work of architecture replaced with a cardboard box. How could this hideous building be allowed to be built on this anchoring corner.

    It's happening all over the city.i see so many beautiful houses being made into room houses,they put cheap vinyl siding up and then let the house rot.i live close to Philly and have worked in it alot.i won't go to far into it but original hardwood floors in Philly house's are works of art.the houses with the half round windows that are like 8ft tall are so much better than the modern ones.ive seen many times when 15 or 20 oriental people walk up and down the streets with notepads and cash money wanting to buy your home on the spot if they can get it cheap enough.the city will continue to slowly lose the original things that made people want to live there.philly is a big,dirty, violent,drug ridden cesspool now not many people really choose to move into Philly anymore.just take a ride around Lehigh or Allegheny and look around the side streets.

    ​@@edbrown6985neglect is not merely adding siding or painting brick. If maintained, sudwalks in repair, some green at least added and trees and cleaner.... It all woukd have not been bad. What happened is full neglect and city not maintaing street infastructure and sidewalds maintained....

    So many buildings built with the power tool being invented in 1895. Who really built our city?
