Old Metro Manila

I remember when my dad used to jog in the Makati Business District in the early 70's and he would bring me along. There were a LOT of butterflies back then. Plus there was AutoMat, SM only sold shoes & bags and only occupied a one-story building, and we used to buy those Kellog's cereal boxes in the building where MECO was located. I also loved looking at the toys at Arcega's.

 

As far as I can remember, that building was known as the IBM building back then. I also remember riding in those taxis. :)

 

Plus look at the pictures of the Ortigas complex. As far back as 13 years ago you would still see the same scenes.

 

In that shot of Highway 54 going to Makati, I remember that Che-Vital sign! The Guadalupe complex was brand-new back then.

 

Until the mid- or late-80s Delta theater was still in operation.

 

Ah yes, the Magnolia plant! I looked forward to the times when my parents would bring me there and I would order as much ice cream and ice cream cake as my stomach could take. :D

 

The plates sporting the years and the municipality (Rizal) seem just about right. Our 1971 Holden had those plates.

 

Hahaha! The hairstyles! Plus the miniskirts! :lol:
