Times Square, NY in the 1970's before it all had to be cleaned up so that American Youth wouldn't be brainwashed, reproduce, and multiply. It worked a decade or two before the Internet became alive.

Mayor Koch started the process in 1980, but things didn't actually start changing until about 1988!

Apparently, lots of fine natural girls back in the day - no fake tan lines, no hipster vibes, tattoo-less, no breast / buttock implants; no botox bullshit; things were very fine back in those days; natural odor was a plus too (pheromone-secreting) too; a little bit of hair on the pits, chin, and bush was considered okay back in those vintage days; girls back then had a natural polite personality. Nowadays, such girls are after the money - annihilating certain men; rinsing and repeating. Its disgusting.

When I was a kid we had a store called Yard Birds. They had a 60' tall bird mascot and you could drive between its legs with your car. On a 95F day in 1976 there was a car fire at the store. Guess where the car was? Yep between the birds legs. The bird was freshly varnished and burned down in like 10 minutes.
REAL embossed metal ceiling tiles as in that image are worth some dough these days.
Oh, yeah....throwing rocks up and watchin' the bats dive after them.
Greasy pants legs because of chain guards removed on the bikes.
Fenders removed.
