    Reminiscent of the downtown shopping district in the 1950s before big box or online shopping during the holidays.

      Bob,

      We called it uptown going to the town square. We called going to Boston going in-town. The picture looks to be in a city. That’s a long main square, but I do recognize decorations like those which spanned the street and had a star in the middle as my town had them too though less elaborate.

        When I was a kid in NYC my parents called going to Manhattan, going to New York. We lived in Brooklyn which is a borough of NYC. Lower Manhattan is refereed to as downtown. The major business area where the Empire State Building and the Broadway Theater district is called midtown. Once we moved to Dallas the central business district has always been downtown.

        We had nothing called downtown. I don’t know why the differences, but we all knew in-town and uptown.
