    Thank you for posting this! The diversity in ethnicity and 70's fashion were both entertaining. :D

    Thanks for Posting ....Interesting Video, Port of Spain Has Change So Much Now, So Many New Buildings and a Neat Walkway (Called the Promenade), Now replace much of what is shown in this Video.

    Gold! People dressed properly to go downtown back then. Quite a few in their work uniforms like nurses & postal workers it seems. No guns back then like now too.

    Honestly nothing much changed. Except more people take loans to pretend to be rich by buying new cars.

    Our girls were so beautiful back then. Everyone looks so decent attractive. No one looks obese, everyone looks healthy. I grew up in the 70s, it was the best time to grow up in Trinidad.

    Those were the days when you could walk the street with your hand bag.

    Based on the manner of dresssing this is either early or mid 70s. Doesn't look like it was late 70s.

      No right for Black people to own property
      I'd rather be fat that live under segregation.
