Description

I colorized, restored, and created sound design for This rare 1930s footage captures a continuous journey through Chicago’s South Side, moving along South Park Avenue (now MLK Drive), the 63rd/South Park station area, S. LaSalle Avenue, S. Federal Street, E. 90th Street, Mackinaw Avenue, and Brandon Avenue, showcasing notable locations such as the 6359 Avenue Lounge, Beutner Playground, Katz’s Junk Shop, the South Gate Tavern, the Shrine of St. Jude, and the distant steeple of St. Michael the Archangel. offers an authentic look at working-class neighborhoods, with busy streets, storefronts, and buildings—many of which no longer exist. Scenes filmed at N. Noble Avenue and Crystal Street near Holy Trinity Polish Church belong to Northwest Chicago and do not naturally fit the South Chicago sequence unless needed for runtime. A key segment from film 58038, showing E. 92nd Street between Baltimore, Burley, and Buffalo—featuring Southtown Flour & Feed—should also be reinstated, as it fully belongs to the South Chicago coverage. Video Restoration Process: ✔ FPS boosted to 60 frames per second ✔ Image resolution boosted up to HD ✔ Improved video sharpness and brightness ✔ Colorized only for the ambiance (not historically accurate) ✔added sound only for the ambiance ✔restoration:(stabilisation,denoise,cleand,deblur) Please, be aware that colorization colors are not real and fake, colorization was made only for the ambiance and do not represent real historical data.
