West Side Highway, 1975
Andy Blair
The good old days.
The thing about all of this post apocalyptic looking shit from the 1970’s and 1980’s is that this scene, that era may be all cleaned up and whitewashed, torn down or have a new facade but that level of poverty, mismanagement, chaos, and potential disaster is still there, sitting in a dark corner, just waiting.
We can pretend that these brick faced pre-fab McMansions, high rise condos and lofts, and Cheesecake Factory faux rustic restaurants are really nice. That they’re proof that our country is less fucked than it was in 1975, but we all know that would be a total lie.
