@BeschlossDC IMO in this '63 photo of Times Sq, you can see beginnings of NY's stagnation & decline (eg vacant adv "spectacular" on right). -
.
@BeschlossDC Also, just the drab & rundown look of area in general & Hotel Claridge ("Midnight Cowboy") & stores on right in particular. -
.
@BeschlossDC But first run movie theaters still in twilight of golden age: Marlon Brando in "Mutiny on the Bounty" at Loew's State and. . -
.
@BeschlossDC . . . and P O'Toole in "Lawrence of Arabia" at Criterion (plus some streets, eg W. 44th, 45th & 46th, etc. still pretty nice).
