There are some good pics of Old Manila inside the US Embassy. I remember seeing it when I attended a seminar there sometime in 1994.

 

Have you guys seen old pics of Makati? Its in the hall leading to the elevator at Glorietta.

Hi guys.

 

If you go to the second floor of Makati PSE, you can see some old picture of Makati CBD. My favorite one is the picture of ayala triangle when it was still the airport - Makati Ave, Paseo and Ayala Ave. being the runway.

I've never been awed like that by seeing Metro Manila back then through crystal clear pics. Grabe, hayop sa kagandahan ang Manila noon. Ngayon, hayop din ang Manila, hayop sa polusyon, trapik, nawawalang green color sa paligid, atbp. It seems that I envy those people who grew up back then during the progressive times of Metro Manila as shown by the pics. 'Yung border ng Makati at Mandaluyong dati, napakalinis at wala pang mga billboards which was a good thing. Guadalupe Mall looks clean pa dati.

 

Nagulat ako dun sa side ng Makati when someone mentioned, "when you look to your right, you would see Rockwell" if naging present day 'yung mga pictures.

 

I can imagine the wind in your hair once you're driving in Highway 54. The air is clean, cool, and windy. No need siguro noon for airconditioned vehicles. Speaking of vehicles, I really dig the vintage look. The top-down convertibles, old station wagons, two-door cadillacs, and many more, including the 1960's Ford Mustang, which I believe dumating din naman siguro dito sa 'Pinas 'yun.

 

Manila Bay looks clean and mukhang maganda mag-stroll or just chill. Baywalk is nice but compare it to the past Manila Bay, I'd prefer the latter. The roads way back are clean and not a sign of black markings on the road caused by smoke-belching vehicles.

 

Of course, who would forget the wardrobe? Hehehe...the pointy-collared polos, flares (or was it flairs?), the long hair, baby-sized shirts, sophisticated women's clothes, and not to mention, those big ass sunglasses! Haha! Astig talaga! No wonder there are parties today that is retro themed.

 

Lastly, naabutan ko pa 'yung nagpapalabas ang COD during the Yuletide season. The last one, I believe, was shown in 1989 and I was naaalala ko pa 'yun vividly. I was with my lola and she was with her friends. Saya saya talaga noong araw and I wish na sana I could travel back in time.

[kalboako]

haayyyy sayang ang dating kagandahan ng maynila.... :closedeyes: :closedeyes:

[erapj]

unfortunately, wala na yung show dun, ala na COD eh, PureGold na siya ngayon...pero yung same puppet creators na nandun sa COD dati lumipat sa Greenhills, dun na sila nagso-show....2 pasko na ang nakaraan na andun sila

I really enjoyed looking at the photos too.

 

Does any know what make the reddish car behind the light blue vw is? It’s just the front showing, and it looks some what like a {55 chevy},

 

 

It has some sort of air induction on its hood too, only the front forth of the car is showing, by poster, {virtute}.

 

Does any one mind if I copy some of the photos for my own viewing? I would like to make a slide show on a cd, and set it to music,
