Times Square, July 1976

Whoever had the boneheaded idea to turn this bustling street into a pedestrian mall should be banned from the urban planning profession for life.

 

When I took this picture, the famous "BOND" sign, with the clock inside the "O", was still there; the Camel billboard with the man blowing smoke rings had vanished, and there was one remaining Automat; it would soon close. Don't know what an Automat is? Google it.
