Amsterdam Alley in 1922 - Restored Footage

Hermosa desde siempre la capital de Holanda... No importa que hoy le hayan cambiado el nombre, para mi siempre será la Hermosa Holanda, me niego a llamarla de otra manera.
Saludos y gracias por esta hermosa renovación de colores, conservando siempre la esencia del paisaje.

Me gustaría tener el poder de viajar al pasado y conocer a esas personas que hoy ya no están más.

It would be cool to see new and old side by side

Stunning rich/poor contrast. The dome was the top of a canal townhouse. Now it’s a public building (Felix Meritis I think). The slum houses are cloned and rebuild probably and cost one million per floor. If you only got 10k, thus no home, you go to Dignitas or something similar and discreetly disappear. Our people are old, we don’t have the stamina to become a billionaire or homeless. Maybe the government(s) could start something that Sears did once, where you can order a cute little house (50 models with compatible parts), on a designated area with zero crime tolerance and some clever rules. Or do something with those Italian ghostcities. Use your imagination, we need houses!
