The cars in the background are from 1972 - '73, so this film is from at least 1973.

Impressive!

Thanks for sharing this one. Good stuff.

IMAGINE TAXPAYERS FUNDING KEEP THIS ISLAND IN MEMEMBER NOTION

BE CARFULL THERE IS A 200 FOOT HOLE IN PARTRIDGE ISLAND

so many memories, I was at Gagetown the last year they had the FNC1A1.

Cool video, if I could only go back to the 80's. If you find more Centracare stuff i'd like to see more.

I just spent the weekend in Saint John and had a lot of fun. Now I'm deep diving TH-cam for videos about the city. Great video! I love old videos like this.

Thank you. I found it in Library and Archives Canada. Meantime St. John Free Public Library has a copy only. Fortunately the copyright has expired.

Is it forsale?

great video

The french village Bridge is now gone .an excavator fell through it years ago

It's sad to see the old general store torn down after catching fire it's also sad to see that there's no stores left in Brunswick Square and it's also sad to see that 300 million went towards of waterfront and meanwhile drug dealers are taking all the apartments while innocent people are living on the street is there any more history that they're going to tear down why not take away Prince William Street that's the first paved Street in Canada and Saint John being the oldest city in the founding city of today's Canada is losing all value because of liberals I'm not too sure what party is the mayor of Saint John is supporting but I hope it's not liberal but yes I start to wonder why there was destruction and reconstruction to the waterfront when it never had to be destroyed in the first place where I see no coast guard base and no way to direct traffic for any ships or local boats or cruise liners or whatever and from the construction site that they have right now I don't see any space where they can put a outdoor skating area because where they are putting it they said they are putting high-rises and seating areas and businesses or whatever but where is that oh so I needed skating area for the winter going to be and they can't put it on the boardwalk in front of the restaurants four in front of that stage and they can't put it where the volleyball sandpit used to be and why did they take that sand pit out for volleyball in the summertime when they still cut a used it in the fall and winter by covering it up and all I had to do was put a framing around the volleyball area and have a flooring they can put on top of it that won't get any are to it and won't ruin the sand so they can use it for outdoor seating and stuff like that or dancing area for any concerts on the boardwalk but they took that big stage out and when they first started building that stage I was one of the first ones to sing on it when they had karaoke on their but oh how times have changed when they just pick up and destroy and rebuild over history. What next are they going to tear down city market because a lot of those indoor spots are being closed down and I see a lot of empty spots in there why not have a fruit and vegetable stand oh yeah they did but they close that down because of the decline of business during the pandemic meanwhile here in Halifax everything is still open and everybody still has jobs in the same place as the only difference is my hometown of Saint John decided to take away businesses and closed down the mall my favorite mall Brunswick Square put me being a lower West side boy I do favor the Lancaster mall more but I am hoping to move back to my hometown and see a lot of history still remain if it doesn't still stay there

1980 what a time to be alive....i would have been at bayside school in grade 9. i remember these parades. now we are lucky to get a christmas parade in 2024❤❤

we had a painter Norman f Jackson paint a 3d painting of partridge island on one of our walls in our house in red head. it was about 5 feet wide by 3 feet tall. this is a great video thank you! ❤

I live in Saint John been there many times

I remember this being shown on ATV news

Am I able to post a couple of your videos to urban places in New Brunswick on TikTik? Credited by you? Please let me know thanks very much

I was a CUB SCOUT and our Mother was the most popular troop leader ( she was beautiful ) ... Sandy was her nickname. Kreta was Mom's real name. Lovely dark hair , jet black !! 🇺🇸 ♥

My gramp Richard (dick)Atherton loved the track.

Awesome. Thanks for sharing.

My grandfather lived in that grand stand.

WOW! RARE interior footage from this mall back in it's 1st 'Golden Era', 506! And now I know what the original side entry to the mall looked like from inside! I'm hoping more is on the way! =)

This was amazing to watch again. We were watching it go down from the old Woolco parking lot. It was something else to watch it go down but sad at the same time. I guess most of us Saint Johners have memories of being at or in the hospital. Great video !!

Glad I read the comments, very cool.

That song at the beginning is still haunting to this day, and I wish Rogers TV could find their original Fundy Cable tape of this, and upload it here. o.o

My mother was a class of 1943 nursing student at the old hospital. She was sad to see it go.

Lots of crazy memories in that place.

I thought the firing drill at the end was pretty slick

We've been doing repair work to the Flume Ridge bridge last couple of years, and many others in southern N.B., its good to see they are finally putting some money into bringing them back to life. The most interesting so far that I have worked on is the Milkish Creek bridge which had graffiti in it that was almost a hundred years old, I also liked the Millstream bridge for the same reason.

People back then would say how bad things were, and now you think back then was better than today.

The one that got away.

This is great!!

Do you guys hop the fence to get down there? I went down today but couldn’t get in, I’m a little short to be hopping fences! 😂

Nice catch 😂

🎉

This is really cool to have these memories for you guys on video

Nice!!

Where you metal detecting or just digging. Keep up the great work😊😊😊

Awesome!!!
