This is what 42 Street looked like in 1996, right before the vacant porn theatres were replaced with The Disney Store, Madame Tussuad's Wax Museum, and a Chevy's Fresh Mex (sigh). I lived just around the corner on W. 43rd Street (1996-1998) at the time this photo was taken.
Although I didn't see it at the time, it was the first sign that The City So Nice, They Named It Twice was quickly on its way to losing its edge.
