Video Description:

I colorized, restored, and crafted the sound design of Rare footage capturing Phoenix, Arizona in 1959, featuring downtown Central Avenue lined with palm trees and a clear view of the historic Jefferson Hotel (Barrister Building) — later made famous by Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960). On the right, we can see the “Phoenix Title” building, and further down “Arizona Truck”, while a street sign reading “5th Ave” as downtown Phoenix. The film also shows the intersection with Grand Avenue, several residential neighborhoods, and even a brief rainy scene, offering an authentic glimpse of the city’s mid-century atmosphere.

video Restoration Process:
FPS boosted to 60 frames per second
Image resolution boosted up to HD
Improved video sharpness and brightness
Colorized only for the ambiance (not historically accurate)

Please, be aware that colorization colors are not real and fake, colorization was made only for the ambiance and do not represent real historical data.
