Circle Line 1977

This section is taken from a Circle Line cruise guide printed in 1977. There are many interesting pictures with some insightful text. New Yorkers may be interested in spotting the differences between the old photos and the modern scenery. Aside from the obvious difference due to terrorism, there are things like the 1970’s cars, texts talking of things to come that have already been built now, area population estimates and so on. Of course there are things that have remained the same, or gotten better, such as the Circle line cruises themselves, which are still an iconic New York City service for both tourists and New Yorkers. You can see the current Circle Line services here: http://www.circleline.com/ Anyways, this is how the guide begins, the front cover:
