There's a building in Canary Wharfe East London, built in 1980's, but looks like these buildings in Chicago or New York. Has period charm but plans are to demolish the substantial building for something utterly bland. London is going through a phase of demolition of anything 1980's. Including Post Modern architecture. English Heritage have saved a large post-modern house from destruction.

It was the mindset/social values of the era when these buildings were torn down, that contemporary buildings were new technology, w/vintage never "in vogue" at that time. Progressive construction makes sense in general terms, however today, vintage is recognized as an art form and valued as such, also as a form of recycling, responsibly valued in 2024. Sad to say, is that all that is/was lost, can never be brought back to be admired for its grand stately presence and sturdy old school construction. Realistically not all could have been saved from era specific urban evolution requiring upgraded social services.

If not mistaken, the building you have as "chamber of commerce" on the North Side was actually demolished long before Allegheny Center to make way for the Buhl Planetarium. I uploaded a film shot during the north side demo if anyone would like to see it czcams.com/video/p488VjZxl-Q/video.html

This is a great video, they are tearing another one down as I type ,, behind PPG place

Very nice!

I was searching up the 1977 pontiac LeMans but it mostly showed a 2 door design but when i put police car it showed me a 4 door design

Nice car. Hope you still have it and continued to preserve it. Cars from this era are very under appreciated.

Tasty guitar chord solo. Anyone know who the guitarist is?

its a shame as so many of these buildings would be iconic structures in the city today! Especially the post office, city hall, and wabash building

As much as was demolished in Pittsburgh quite a bit does still remain . It’s often used now in period piece movies because it does retain a lot of its old buildings . But many of those old buildings just couldn’t be renovated / updated to modern useful buildings . They were never built for the mechanical requirements of todays buildings

Margret was one of the best girl singers , until Connie came along .

This is a special gift of talent with love!

I just LOVE Margaret Whiting! When I would get grounded, (which seemed often🤣), I would go into our spare bedroom and listen to my Mom's albums. I have to credit my Mom with my vast knowledge and love of all music genres. They all have something of value. ❤

Love this song so beautiful.

i hate point state park it wouldve been better if atleast like 3 old buildings were kept

Mark David is the composer? Brother of Hal?

Nice. Thanks!

Peggy Lee's finest "Break You Heart" love song. Hard to believe it was written in 1929. A "Drop The Mike " performance!

Chrysler used the K car platform to their advantage over and over.

Good art deosn't gets older.

Música chata

Where did the lyrics come from?

Jenkin's Arcade was the very first Indoor Mall in the World, And it was torn down . We used to Love roaming around inside admiring all the different stores . I know buildings become brittle and need torn down . But most can be preserved !

I grew up living above the Thom MCcan shoe store (Sockels) in the 70's and attended the Foster School .

Unbelievable....the epitome of beauty

IM FROM THE WEST END OF PITTSBURGH THAT IS WHERE MY MOM AND DAD ARE FROM MY DAD WAS A CITY FIREMAN AND MOM WORKED AT BELL TELEPHONE

Do the rear seats fold down?

I'm in love

So very different from today's "music"...an incredibly, talented singer, a beautiful lyric and melody!! Thank you so much.

Was there a building to the right of the tavern in the past or down the road a little bit?

Canção lindaa gente

What a beautiful car! The early 600's are much more rare from 1983-1985. I love that you took the care to hunt down the original hubcaps as well. Great video.

My mom sang this to me when I was little, and I still love it now at 83; a lovely timeless song I'll never forget.

A beautiful and sensitive rendition. Love ya, Margaret

The old post office being replaced by an ugly metal parking garage is almost too hard to bear. Downtown could have been an incredible place to live, work, and shop, and now it's a wasteland.

The tail lights always reminded me of a 1964 Dodge Polara

Lovely. Slower than the released version. Today's 'songs' are Neanderthal grunts.

I wish addresses were included for those of us outside of West Virginia and interested in where people we knew lived.

All for a soccer field that barely gets used and is locked so the public can't use it! Thanks Catholic Diocese of WV

Jackie Gleason(late actor and comedian)drove one of these Pontiac LeMans as Sheriff Buford T. Justice in “Smokey & The Bandit”

Nice and slow...like this night

build them all back as they were

"THOSE WHO IGNORE HIS HISTORY UNDERSTAND NOR THE PRESENT NOR FUTURE."

Such a fabulous recording! With all those musicians on hand they could so easily have overwhelmed her with orchestration. There are some other versions out there that do that. But they had the good sense here to let Julie London own the spotlight.

Identical to my first car! Loved it!

Identical to my first car! Loved it!

Great video! Sad to see such cool deco buildings replaced with trash.

The pentagon ignition key was pre-1985 and the triangle key was 1986-1999

Enjoyed this. Lived and worked in Braddock. 4 years at the Library and 2 years at the Employment office. Thanks ...good memories....the green house on Kirkpatrick is where I lived on the first floor apt ..wow!

I was born at AGH in 1945, Lived in Manchester at 1418 N.Franklin St till our family moved out in 1961. (White flight) I remember walking past most of these houses many times during my youth!
