Your pics are showing them marching through the city of Nuremberg on their WAY to the rally (hence the apartment buildings, et cetera), NOT the rally itself. No, they didn't evacuate the city of Nuremberg prior to the 1 May rallies, but the parade grounds are a separate and distinct location, and your pictures are not showing it. If you'd ever been there, you'd know what I'm talking about. In order to get into the actual parade grounds (you know, that big field with all the mammoth buildings that you keep seeing the Swastika being blown up in the old newsreels) where the 1 May rallies were actually held, you had to be in the Party or it's sub-organizations, which were organized on a military or paramilitary structure.
It's kind of like the circus coming to town...you can watch them march from the railhead to the venue, but that doesn't mean you've actually been to the circus.
All you're doing is obfuscating.
