Picture: New York Times Square night 1981 » Filename: UsNycTimeSqNt81715.jpg

Neon signs and traffic in Times Square New York, July 1981. Ads include Midori Melon liqueur, Coke and Castro, Panasonic and JVC. In the intervening years the cars and signs have changed but the atmosphere remains the same

I lived in New York from June 3 to September 2, 1981.
