For example, they remember the Times Square of the 1980s… And what they remember is not so much the danger but the grittiness and (for lack of a better word) the authenticity. Yes, there was sleaze, but there were also video arcades, cheap movies, restaurants, and weird places.” Here is an impressive photo set that Siegel documented everyday life of Times Square area during the 1980s.
