Video Description:

I colorized, fully restored, and added immersive sound design to this rare footage capturing Chicago’s Near West Side in the late 1930s. showcases a vivid street-level view of the neighborhood, featuring W. Maxwell, W. Barber, Newberry Avenue, 14th Place, and surrounding blocks, including historic landmarks like the Newberry Department Store and the Chicago Maternity Center. Viewers can see automotive shops, local businesses, residential buildings, and even glimpses of daily life with children and bustling streets, all presented in a highly detailed, lifelike manner. The reconstruction brings to life streets and structures that no longer exist, offering a rare, vibrant window into a vanished era of Chicago’s urban history.

My hometown and was it filthy back then. Lot of neighborhoods in Chicago today, sadly, look the same. A few dem mayors took better care of the city but most dem mayors care less about her and her citizens. Lie, cheat, steal, scam -- crooked as can be back then and today. Embarrassed to say I am from there.
