Bleecker `87

I'm not gonna lie. I haven't watched all of it, and it's wicked slow, but if you're keen to relive the Greenwich Village of May of 1987 (I would have been a college sophomore out in Ohio, at the time), check out this sprawling clip. 

Here's how its host, named Ted, describes it:

A walk down Bleecker Street (after a short tour of my apartment)... from: 95 Carmine Street, apt 6R (where Matt Lindland and Ted lived) to: 7-9 Carmine Street (where John Gaines and Ted had lived together 1984-1986)

I had a VHS video camera we had rented for Rick's wedding. I used it to capture a last walk down one of my favorite Greenwich Village streets. I moved away from New York a few months later.

Suffice to say, much as changed. Check it out.
