I was 14 in 1972 and this was a pleasant look back at a simpler and much more civil time. Thank you.

Wow, thank you for posting this! I grew up in northern Wisconsin in the 70s/80s. Duluth was "the city" to us! Great stuff here!

Busy downtown Duluth, no pan handlers on the streets. I sure missed the good old days

There was still ice on Lake Superior on June 20, 1972. How do I know? I got married on June 24, 1972 and the ice blew out the night before. It was 71 degrees outside and gorgeous. In retrospect, how cool it would have been to still have ice on the lake in my wedding pictures.

I was 10 years old then and loved to walk up and down the streets with parents or grandma, and occasionally take a ride on the DTA buses! Great places to eat down town then too

1:10 I remember when I was a kid in the mid '90s we were parked in the parking garage of the Holiday Inn, and across the street you could actually see the imprint of where that umbrella logo for Travelers Insurance used to be! I instantly recognized it when I saw this.

A side by side would be amazing. Go there often but can't really tell where these places are at. 🎉

I was -18 in 1972. So I don't remember a thing! But that was still some pretty neat film footage

Duluth/Superior has changed a lot in even the past 10 years The 2000's were a dark time for the twin ports. Crime was high and jobs were bleeding like no tomorrow. The late 2000's and early 2010's (2009-2015) was a horrible time for Duluth/Superior. 2017 was the first year I remember Duluth starting to recover, and now the city has had lots of small buisness move in and it appears to be on the up again. Duluth has changed so much, its almost unrecognizable now in 2023 compared to the 1970's. Crazy how time flies.

Interesting to see how people walking about on the sidewalks were still wearing coats, sweaters, and jackets despite it being early summer.

There was not one ugly car in the video. Today there is not one car I would want to buy, they're all terrible in my opinion. I dunno, maybe I just don't belong in these modern times... 🤷🏼
