Which city would you like to visit in 1930s?
Las Vegas.
I'd monopolize the casino business before the mob thought of it.
Muuuuuuuuuuuahahahha. 😈
Edmonton (Alberta, Canada). Lots of iconic buildings that existed in the 30s have since been demolished (the Edmonton Journal building [1929], the Tegler building [1912], the Arlington apartment building [1909], Edmonton Public Library's old Central Library building [1923], the old downtown post office [1910], the Canadian National Railway Station [1928], the Imperial Bank of Canada building [1907], the Merchants Bank of Canada building [1906], and so much more).

I live in Southern Cal and went to Quebec and Montreal last year. Montreal still has most of those buildings and they value their historic architecture.
I was thinking the same! So many videos make me sad that it's not like that anymore, but this video didn't make me sad, Montreal still preserves the original beauty and mix it with the new. Other cities seem to want to destroy everything for the new. Or at least in other Canadian cities, not sure how it is in US.
@@jbc22112 US had no history in the first place.

A lot of that footage is amazingly current. Some changes occurred, of course, but the basic outline is the same. Montreal is my hometown, and I filmed and photographed it for more than 40 years and your clip is right on the money!
Like and Share Please
Please leave the narrative text onscreen for a little bit longer. I read fairly quickly, but I had trouble reading the words in the brief time they were onscreen.
Other than that, this and all other NASS videos are outstanding. Thank you.
i don't suppose there is any vintage footage of buenos aires? it was one of the richest countries in the world back in the early 1900s!
there was a saying back in those days, "As Rich As An Argentine" - they don't say that anymore!
Please can you do one on Mogadishu? It used to be an amazing city before the civil war. Look up videos from the 60s, 70s and 80s.
Quel beau vidéo ! Un merveilleux voyage dans le temps !
Merci beaucoup !!!
😀
Great video. Interesting to see a sign for the White Star Line at the dock at the end.
I am a Montrealer, my parents were 1 years old when these images were captured. Looking at the elegance of the people, I understand better how keen my dad was on dressing so well. He was a dandy. And my mom to this day dresses up nicely every time we visit her or we go out with her. Montreal was truly a word class city and it has recaptured its beauty over the past few decades after a period of neglect.

I don’t think Montrealers know how truly lucky they are to be from this city. It remains joyful, rustic, bohemian and cultural.

At least there is one of me who knows... (and probably a couple more...)😁
Sadly nowadays a lot of people don’t appreciate this beautiful city. The best proof would be that Montreal never has been so dirty. Its inhabitants lost their pride of their city.
I absolutely love living in montreal

Happy new year!
You know, when I first noticed this video title come across my computer screen I thought "so what!" But something nudged me to take a peak....and I am so glad I did....I was so intrigued and glued to the screen to the very end. What a gem of a historic treasure to take a "walk back in time." I grew up in Quebec province and once in a while traveled to Montreal....what a difference as time goes on. Thank you for the quality and sound and a trip back to the way things were once upon a time. 💯☺🇨🇦🇲🇶
I am obsessed with this. I have always loved these remastered re-colorized footage clips but I have yet to see one for Montreal, where I was born and continue to call home. Thank you for sharing!
Une vidéo fort intéressante! J'aime bien l'histoire. Merci!!!
Outstanding restoration and the sound design is brilliant! Bravo!
Thank you! For uploading these videos I really appreciate the time and effort you put into these vintage videos taking us back in time I love your work and enthusiasm.

There is something about those time and the way camera started. Amazing work adding sound and color. mesmerizing!

4:07 shows the fine arts building
4:31 shows the McDonald Engineering building
thank you so much
Great video, but this was from the early 1920s, not 1930s. You can tell from certain parts of the McGill University campus that were there in this remastered video, but were gone or had been changed by the late 1920s (e.g., sun roof of Dawson Hall). You can also tell from the caps and dresses of the women which were no longer in fashion by the early 1930s.
Thank you for your accuracy. I am not sure about that "Saint-James street" either, looks more like St-Jacques or Notre-Dame (old Royal Bank) when the business district was still in the old Montreal

Montréal a terriblement changé. Je remarque particulièrement le Parc Lafontaine et le Belvédère du Mont-Royal... Tant de verdure décimée. La beauté du Parc Lafontaine me fait beaucoup pensé au Central Park de New York.
Ces images sont si précieuses, merci de nous les partager.
Another phenomenal video
I like Montreal. I will always remember being snowed in there on my 28th birthday. It was 2 weeks before Christmas and I was in town on a business trip. I couldn't leave so once I resigned myself to soloing my birthday, I opted to make the best of it and leave my hotel to get some food. It was snowing hard yet it was really quite pretty; there was no wind and it wasn't that cold out; just... well, really snowing hard. I ended up taking a horse and wagon ride through Old Montreal to pass some time as I wasn't that familiar with the city - the guide didn't even charge me when I mentioned it was my birthday so I bought us both a hot chocolate and just enjoyed the Christmas-decorated older buildings and snowy cobblestone streets. It turned out to be a lovely evening, I quite enjoyed it. I hope to visit again someday. Thanks for the video )

As a Montrealer, thank you for this, I recognize many of the buildings :)
Amazing job. The sound really connects you with the reality being shown on the footage. Fascinating to see how much of our city weve been able to keep, despite a lot of criticism that would make you think otherwise.
As a Montrealer I find this to be a wonderful video. I think I saw my father in the crowd. He moved to Montreal in 1915 when he was eleven years old from England. I know all these places.
Amazing job!!
Потрясающе! Спасибо!
Thanks

More from Montreal or Laval which is north of montreal would be great if u could? Truly great work you’ve done thank you so much
Very beautiful thanks Nass
Thx! ;)
Thank's for showing my beautifull city
I can’t believe this was my grandma’s everyday childhood used to look like. I can just picture her walking down the street holding her mother’s hand at 9 years old. That’s crazy to think about. 1925-2020 Missed you.
formidable , bravo
Merci à vous
Thank you. Wonderful footage. But the description flashed on screen too quickly and the background noise is too loud.
Mais ou as-tu trouvé tout ce footage que je ne connaissais pas??? (ca fait quand même 12 ans que je vais des vidéos sur Montréa!!)

Yes,this capsule always will be to my mind and only....😐😏😔 Thanks for your so so so beautiful videos to the past! The happiness drawing to my face when i see new video, and not only new!!! 🙏
Thanks
Lets go together )))
Thank you for showcasing my city! Many of these old buildings are still standing and in use. They were obviously modernized inside several times, but have kept their external appearance over the decades since they were built, many of them are over 100 years old.
I was expecting to have to mentally strain to picture what the locations look like now, but honestly all of them look pretty similar today. I've had memories in every location in this reel, from the lookoff to the bridge at LaFontaine. Nifty
Its crazy that we can see the victoria bridge that clear from the mount-royal Belvedère. The fleuve St-laurent seems so empty with only one bridge this side.
Plus people forget that the city of Montreal is an island. This is where the St. Lawrence River splits and the city of Montreal is surrounded by the St. Lawrence on all sides. The northern island suburb of Montreal is the city of Laval. On the north side of Laval the branch of the St. Lawrence turns to the northwest and becomes the Ottawa River. The rest of the St. Lawrence splits Montreal and Laval in half and then flows southwest again, eventually where St. Lawrence flows into Lake Ontario and the rest of the Great Lakes. That is why when you look down on the city of Montreal from the top of Mount Royal ( a magnificent view and where the city gets its name) you can see all of these bridges that cross the river into the city.
Look very carefully @ 7.05 m. You will see Jacques Cartier Bridge wich went into service early 1930.
@@LeYuikin Yep, looks brand new
@@michaelverbakel7632 the st-laurent flows into the ocean.... lol
@@RWMAirgunsmithing Yes, I apologize you are correct. The water flows out of the Great Lakes and becomes the St. Lawrence, going around Montreal, then flows northeast into the Gulf of St. Lawrence and out into the ocean.
Nice work 👌. I worked next to city hall on rue Gosford / Notre Dame from 2007-20018, amazing ambience to work in Old Montréal especially when you dig history. I bike commuted daily to my home in N.D.G. and have filmed the same scenes 😁. Still lots of pressure from developers/speculators to gentrify into more con-doze.
Beautiful! I like the colorization, it provides a more immersive experience. I love to recognize familiar landmarks, and then discover buildings, marquées and storefronts that no longer exist. Thanks for putting this out. Great work.

Excellent!
great. but I think you need to decrease saturation and gamma, increase contrast a little. I've tried to do it with screenshot - and after it the image looks more realistic
The cars driving past gates at about 3:53 are the gates to McGill university. Much of Montreal is still the same today.
It's fascinating how some of the locations BARELY changed in 100 years
That first shot of Place d'armes must be taken from the Édifice Aldred -- I worked in that building from 2008 to 2013 and had basically this view from my 8th floor office window.

Deux sophismes majeures dans tes arguments : l’appel à la tradition et la fausse analogie. Je te rappelle que c’est l’être humain qui a attribué au cheval sa fonction de « cheval de travail » et ce n’est pas dans sa nature de traîner des touristes toute la journée jusqu’à l’épuisement. L’esclavagisme a exister durant des siècles et je crois que nous sommes tous les deux d’accords pour se dire que ce n’est pas une bonne pratique.

That view from the lookout... Oh my my. I sure did not expect that. Also: RIP le Faubourg à m'lasse. I wish I could have seen it with my own eyes. Thank you for your amazing work!
For a city from the 1920s, it looks very well kept and organized, with lots of green areas. What does not convince me is the artificial coloring of these old movies. The purple "color" always predominates. Instead of putting a previous black signboard to refer to a specific place, it would be better to overprint it on the film.
I like the way the signboards precede passages of the video material. Thus, the latter can be watched completely and without a distraction.
