NORTH BROTHER ISLAND
North Brother Island is an uninhabited patch of land located smack dab in the middle of the East River between the Bronx and Rikers Island. It was the site of the infamous Riverside Hospital for quarantinable diseases-the place where Typhoid Mary finally succumbed to her namesake illness in 1938. After World War II, up until 1951, the island was repurposed as housing for veterans and their families. It then played host to a rehabilitation center for adolescent drug addicts. After the facility closed in the 1960s (amid allegations of corruption) the island became a bird sanctuary, permanently closed off to the public.

Alpine Boy Scout Camp Trail
Просмотров 322 года назад
A nice track, I don't know what that other reviewer is referencing regarding 12 miles. I found about 2 miles on the yellow trail that makes a nice loop. Nothing crazy but close enough to home to make it a nice evening spot after work. Not the easiest to find and it's not marked well. But a fun ride regardless

You got way off path. Just stay on the tracks- back when they were still there
there is a sinister secret hidden in plain sight on North Brother Island the government trapped a giant telepathic serpent between 300-900 foot long the Navy has Jurisdiction over this creature
Thank you for the info my friend
Which lot did u start from?
I'm not sure
That's the best you can do. Van Cortland park to Tibbitts Brook park, what about the rest of the way to Brewster?
nope as you can see by my videos I've been all over
The old vancortlant park Putnam train station and the trestle bridge is up for a reason. Yeah they they rip off the train tracks and made it to a trailer bike. Which is 100% true. I have a spiritual feeling that they are gonna wind up having trains running back soon I'm telling you. Look at mayrook connect they have the trailer and the train tracks. I heard that they gonna trains running there where people could see the trains running again while they are riding their bikes and running and jogging. Alots of Abandoned Rail road s are coming back to life slowly but surely I'm keeping it 100% real. That's the reason why you see the curve Putnam trailer and you could still see the double trestles.
thank you so much for the info
@@CarlosPerez-td6ur Another thing to if you ride pass tibbitsbrook park 🏞️ you will see four white marks and the dubble trestles and train tracks ties. Go check out the first Birdge putmam and you will see that they are definitely repainting them the 1904 Birdge and they cut some weeds on the side trestles. When you ride that little Birdge putmam look for 104 on the ground where the end of the trestle.
thank you for your comment
