Color Video Of Downtown Lafayette In The Early 60’s [Video]
Unless you saw it for yourself, who would have thought that downtown Lafayette was so lively?!
There isn't much info given in the YouTube description...as a matter of fact there is NO info given in the description. But it's definitely downtown Lafayette, cause there's a few things that I recognize.
I saw at least two spots that I definitely recognize. Teche Drugs is in the video, as well as the areas that Tsunami, and Genterie now inhabit.
I'm no expert on Lafayette's past, but don't the roads look much wider than they are now.
As the video goes through the downtown area, how many places can you recognize?
