Sydney was truly beautiful during the 60’s

That takes me way back, some great film footage of what was for me a slower less hectic time growing up as a youngster around Sydney in the early 60's.

@@terrenceweetra6041 I am probably looking through slightly rose coloured glasses, but it was a great time to grow up. I always remember Sundays as back then it was a day of relaxation and rest, no large shops open which was not a problem, it just gave us more family time with Dad and Mum.

@@jso19801980 As I mentioned in a reply probably looking through slightly rose coloured glasses, but it was so different from today. That is my one regret not having many photos from that era as it was film and expensive to develop. I do have some of the Opera House being built, Australia Square Tower being built, it was only a few stories high and sailing under the Harbour Bridge on the RMS Orion in 1962 on our arrival to Australia as migrants.

If only we’d cherished our culture and home a little more…

yes I was transported on HMAS Sydney to Vietnam in 1968 with the First Battalion 1 RAR Hello to anyone who was on the aircraft carrier at this time. we returned in march 1969 Rest in peace to those who did not return with us.

This is before 1962. The AMP building in Circular Quay opened in Nov 62. They havent demolished the previous buildings on that site.

I can see most of the old buildings in The Rocks area still there.Which year was the worst for this area in terms of heritage demolition?

Brilliant

Bring back those innocent times. Especially the Waratah Parade.

Tall buildings like today didn't start until the late 60s when the AMP building got built in front of circular quay! Some taller building in the 70s then in the 80s there were quite a lot of some tall buildings until the blue glass building built in front of circular quay either 1989 or 1990 so yeah!

Back when Sydney was the best it'll ever be.

Great time to grow up in Sydney.....clean, no graffiti and no lefties !

What's with the Luna Park theme? Was that part of the ANZAC Day Parade?

That footage was most likely from The Waratah Festival which was very similar to Moomba in Melbourne.

I think Australia's biggest mistake was not taking care of the common wealth of its own citizens first before allowing the four corners of the earth to come here and prosper as other countries do. It's always been the great myth and taboo that we don't have disadvantage and underprivedge in Australia and it has been the poorest Australians who have suffered the most from mass immigration. Evidenced by the never ending animosity towards it.

My father filmed colour footage of the Waratah Festival in the early 1960s which I have and is less grainy than this film. I had thought of posting it to KZread for general viewing but it has controversial scenes of white Australian men painted black (blackface) marching along to represent Aborigines, which could offend viewers, though it would represent attitudes of the times.
