- Wander the streets of downtown Santa Cruz in this home movie from 1960. You might spot a few shops and names you remember! We spotted: Slocum’s Liquors, Salinas Valley Savings, Voris Realty Co., De Witt's China, Santa Cruz Pet Shop, Moderne Studio Photography, Mobley's Barber Shop, Ferrari Florist, and several others. And, of course, we take a tour of the world-famous Antonella Brothers Begonia Gardens before we go!

It was still nice there until the mid 80's. I used to take my family there every year for a week long vacation. Overrun by bean heads now.
I was only 10 but I remember the old Santa Cruz and appreciate it still.
I like the Jaguar XK150 at 1:41 I wish there was some scenes from the wharf. I might have seen me fishing there when I was a young boy.
I was not born that year, but I enjoy watching old videos.
I once worked in those greenhouses full of begonias.
grew up in Campbell, lived in capitola for awhile in the early 80,s moved back to campbell
Very nice.
I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN SANTA CRUZ CALI IN 1981 I WAS BORN. IN 1990 I MOVED UP TO WASHINGTON STATE. I WILL NEVER FORGET THE DAY THE BIG EARTHQUAKE HAPPENED. THE LONA PERRITTA EARTHQUAKE. I WAS/AM TRAMATIZED FROM IT TILL THIS DAY..I MISS THE BEACH BOARD WALK. AND FLYING KYTES. AND SWIMMING IN THE OCEAN.
What a perfect time to have been there.
1960......the year we moved there. Lived there until joining the Navy in 1983. Didn't know how lucky I was to grow up there until I left. Wonder what some of the bungalows with the white picket fences go for now? 1.5, 2 million?
I would sell my soul to have lived in that time period in California. As close to utopia as you'll probably get.
I got some Super 8 movies of the flood in the 1950s and the suntan special coming into Santa Cruz at the boardwalk 1960s beauty pageant parade
I Lived near the Begonia Gardens in 1976-77. Glad this is saved....truely amateur camera work!
yes, because it was so high tech in the 60's LOL, thanks for the laugh
Before destroyed by UCSC
True
I'd love to know more about which streets/neighborhoods we're looking at.
Me interessei por Santa Cruz por causa de um documentario sobre Ed Kemper , gostaria de conhecer tanto o Ed quanto Santa Cruz , que linda ♥️♥️♥️
How many homeless encampments are around that town now?
