We don't have to guess what being in New York looked like in 1993; we can see it just as clearly as we would on social media today.
This sounds like we are in the year 2245.
1993 is 23 years ago. Why would we be guessing what NYC looked like?
It's a cool video, I suppose, but I thought the same thing. I really can't understand what they are trying to get at there.

I guess the point is - we don't really know what the city looked like in the time of our parents and grandparents (and that's true). There is film, but it's grainy black and white or color. We have to fill in the blanks with what we think we know about any place with that sort of imagery. With this footage, there will be few questions about how the city looked during that time in 1000 years (assuming it and we as a species survive that long).
