This eight and a half minute collection of film footage of New York taken between 1896 and 1905 provides fascinating insight into street life of the early progressive era. See NYC before skyscrapers and have a better understanding of what street life looked like. Easy to play during class changing time (with the sound off to hide cheesy music) and use as a Do Now response - what can we learn from this?
