This is really cool.
A couple of things I really noticed
1. Loads of traffic - although buses rather than cars and trucks
2. Hardly any bikes

It's like someone has removed about 90 percent of the population and replaced them with space.

Petticoat lane looks like Calcutta, but with people in suits.

Epic.
