I was one of the NYU students who helped make “Street Scenes 1970”. It was originally to be credited to the collective called NY Cinetracts. Sometime over the summer when the film was edited, the film was credited as being directed by Martin Scorsese. I’m listed under “Communications”, with my name slightly misspelled.
Scorsese has kept the film locked because he doesn’t think it is representative of his work (I’m paraphrasing here). But “Street Scenes 1970” was never intended to be a “Martin Scorsese Picture”. Open letter to Marty – Congratulations on being a brand name. Please quit being a jerk about this film. Btw, I’ve donated by NY Cinetracts card to the Miami Beach Cinematheque’s collection.

Thanks for uploading. I’m curious where you found the film. I tried to screen the film for years but was denied access to the print at MoMA. I wrote about the film years back in FILM HISTORY: https://muse.jhu.edu/article/383700 and in my book on Scorsese: https://www.amazon.com/Hollywoods-New-Yorker-Scorsese-Horizons/dp/1438445725/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=hollywood%27s+new+yorker&qid=1566356699&s=gateway&sr=8-1
