The '60s highway-style streetlights are gone (along with the electric tramline threaded off them), replaced by more modest antiquey faux-gaslamps that cast a Dickensian glow. Downtown has never had very welcoming lighting.
As in all photos of a certain vintage, the road is immaculate and looks freshly pressed.
