Interesting for sure. And I was too ignorant to grasp the nitty gritty part of some of it.

I'd walk all over the Times Square area day and night (my hotel was nearby), taking in the sights.
Looking & thinking back,
many of those who loitered there were male and female hustlers/prostitutes.

Unlike today there were many porn shops, X-rated movies theaters, etc.

At the time I had a book "NYC On $45 A Day".
My hotel, old but decent, was $17 a night.

This was between 1969 - 1975.
