I see that the Vienna wheel made famous in The Third Man still exists. Times Square has been tidied up.  Good old grungy Times Square. I was going to mention that one; actually much of Manhattan no longer really exists, what with all the Gentrification/Disneyfication that's occurred over the past couple of decades. The NYC of my youth, and the popular image of the city that was stamped on the public consciousness from all those Seventies films and telly ranging from The French Connection to Barney Miller, and about ten gazillion other productions along the gamut is pretty much as gone as the woolly mammoth. Maybe for the better, although I for one am not completely convinced of that... |
