History and Places : Cubao Circa 60's

One of the most familiar commercial and shopping centers in Metro Manila is Cubao in Quezon City. Strategically located in the crossroad of the two of the busiest  main roads and commuter train routes of Metro Manila : EDSA and Aurora Blvd. Situated in the center of Cubao is the iconic landmark Araneta Coliseum ( now named Smart Araneta Coliseum ). Cubao is currently undergoing a major construction boom which will turn the area into  a jungle of high-rise buildings similar to Ortigas and Ayala.
Have you ever wondered how Cubao looked before it turned into what it is now? Here's how Cubao looked then.
