My last office was in “Duncan’s Toy Chest” aka The Rookery. Super historic building that you can also see in The Untouchables & Dark Knight 😅
Chicago and New York very interchangeable for film.
I’m from NYC but I think Chicago makes the best movie Gotham honestly!
What was the building called in Dark Knight bro?
Another great video. Home alone 2 is where my love for New York began. Me and my partner visited most of these places, he had it all planned out for my 30th birthday 2 weeks ago and New York was the most magical time. You really do live in the most magical city in the world. A trip we will never forget.
Hey Jon I liked that the first Home Alone movie was filmed in Winnetka, Illinois, but I like Home Alone 2 better. Watching Home Alone 2 when I was growing up made me dream of visiting and possibly living in NYC.
Did that to a lot of people
Both 1 and 2 are great, but 2 is just bigger and better!
Home Alone 1 and 2 is still a must watch every Christmas, love this one Jon
i only watch HA 1 every year.. going to watch both from now on
Home Alone 1 & 2 always kicked A Christmas Story’s ass!!!
I'll need to rewatch the movie now after seeing this! My favorite scene was the woman slapping scene!
🤣🤣🤣✋🏻
Marv: I think she likes me
I liked part 2 more simply because it was filmed in NYC, and I saw it well before I ever visited the city. I think it helped foster my love for the city even before I ever saw it in person.
The Pigeon Lady (Brenda Fricker) lives here in Dublin on her own. Wonderful actress.
Crazy how much NYC has changed since then in 1992. Wow great video!
Nothing beats NYC decorated for the Christmas holiday! I remember Gimbels and Macy’s as a kid! The windows are iconic!
Christmas 2015 - Came from the UK.. 1st time in NYC.. did some Home Alone 2 spots... including cocktails at the plaza Hotel
Gave my (now) wife, a pair of turtle doves with the Home Alone music playing when we were drunk on Xmas eve (she cried).... proposed the next day in Central Park (she didn't cry 😂).. but did say yes 😃
Coming back on Sunday ... can't wait
Definitely the first Home Alone movie to the best! It's a classic Christmas movie. Watch it every year since childhood :)
If you love Home Alone 2 scroll up and smash that like button! Should I make more filming location videos in the future?

Of course you should make more filming locations it’s so fun to watch on how it looked from then to today :)
Please do! I'd love to see the Spider-man movies locations!
Breakfast at Tiffany’s (the park scenes)
Yeah!! Some super heroes movies like Avengers, Spider Man…
yes, you should tours of where they filmed Highlander, Big, Joker
I went to the viewpoint on top of the World Trade Center plenty of times. You should go, it is a fantastic view. 😊
Great video Jon! Home alone 2 takes what was great about the first and makes it even better
Agreed
@@HereBeBarr I agree too. But Home Alone 2 apparently scores lower on IMDB than number #1. But what do they know? XD
Either way, thank you for taking us to the World Trade Center site. It looks absolutely beautiful and massive.
@@HereBeBarrdo you want a boyfriend😂🎉😂😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉🎉
May Almighty bless you and your family
Much preferred Home Alone 2.😊... Thanks for showing us around the iconic scenes from the movie, Jon. Happy Christmas to you and Adriana.
Home alone 2 can never gets old this was n still is the best Christmas movie everrrr I watch it every Christmas season...😍😍😍
Jon, I still like watching Home Alone it is one of my favorite Christmas movies that never gets old. I prefer Home Alone 2 unlike the first one. But still enjoying watching both during the Holidays. The next stop to Rockefeller center when? Almost thirty years on Christmas Day no crowds at that time in my memories only one person enjoying the view of the tree.
Touch wood I’m actually flying to New York next weekend and a massive home alone 2 fan looking forward to it
Gotta chance to visit NYC in early December 2014, absolutely beautiful, FAO, Tribeca, etc Unfortunately it rained the night we visited Rockefeller Ctr but was still packed! I definitely wanna go back. So worth it!
Really love the WTC scene, since I was born a few years after 9/11. Gives me a peek into those times.
Hey John, Great video, we were actually at a few of these spots just last week from the UK as the wife loves Home Alone 2. I watched a ton of your videos and they helped us massively on our trip. Keep it up dude!
I love that so much of New York has been captured on film and TV. Thanks for the tour Jon.
I watch home alone 1&2 a thousand times even i am now 61 yrs old. Specially i am lonely i always watch it. K started from vhs tapes to vcd to dvd to usb copies.
At the Hilton hotel right now. Fly back to England tomorrow thank you for you vids made my N.Y visit the best.
I love the Plaza hotel! I think Home Alone 1 is more of a classic but the 2nd movie is not too off, not many movies where the 2nd one is as good as the first!!
Hot take: Home Alone 2 is better than the original.
Noooooooooooo
@@dannysmith8093 mmmm no
The New York Christmas vibe was quite something but nothing beats the original Kevin vs Harry & Marv
Are you crazy 🤪
No
I'm going to New York for this Christmas! Home Alone was definitely an inspiration for me.
Was just in New York a couple of weeks back. What a magical place
Literally watching this RIGHT NOW and I wondered this- I have been to many of these locations... cant wait to see what you included...
The Plaza has had that "hotel and patrons only" rule for a few Christmas seasons now. Few years ago, made a reservation at one of the bars/restaurants and viola! access
5:40 ‘so good hoo hoo!’ 🤣 adorable
My favorite sense is Radio city music center store and Christmas store in Home Alone 2. I like Home Alone 1 and 2 because I like that boy being alone on Christmas having so much fun.
Thank you so much for doing this!! So much fun! Home alone is so iconic and definitely made me want to be here in NY for Christmastime. I think they’re both just as good as each other!!! I love the bit in Central Park with the fireworks 🎉😂
Thanks Jon. We're hitting NYC next week and this has given me some great last minute ideas. 🍻
Home alone 2 is the best. Going to New York in December for the first time and hoping to see many of these sights.
Time to rewatch the movie now, thanks Jon!
hahaha i wonder if this will boost rentals.
Biggest fan of home alone 2 ❤❤❤
Wish to be in newyork so that my eyes get the real view of this city!!!❤❤
I'm too fn hyped to be arriving on the 16th of this month in NYC for the first time in my 35 years. Home Alone 2 along with Ghostbusters 1 and 2 are partly responsible for my infatuation with NYC.
Thank you so much for this, I’ve always wanted to go to New York since I was 10 watching home alone back in 1992 and finally this year on my 40th I’ll be going to New York!! It’s a dream come true xx
One of the rare movies where the second sequel is super great too
Favorite scene was when Kevin’s dad got the hotel bill
90s NYC was a very different vibe. Back then I went with my friend from California and went to Joes which was right on Bleeker. He referred to it as "Dollar pizza" because it was a dollar a slice. After Spiderman they got famous.
Thank You for telling me about the One World Observatory -every time I watch the World Trade Center scene I wonder if I would have gone up there-now I can see what it would have been like!
My Favorite scene is when Kevin just arrived in New York at la guardia and he say my family is in Florida and me in NY 🤣🤣🤣
Thank you for doing this. I am going there next week
This is great. I actually left New York a few days ago. And saw the Rockerfeller Center tree. The whole lot you showed. I did the Home Alone bit as well. Went to the 230 5th rooftop as well
Hahaha great thumbnail :)
I try 🤣
I’m a female, 38 who went to NYC in 2019 but I keep watching to practice English with u. Love your channel
Great video and fitting for this time of year. I think it will also attract some new viewers and subs which you 100% deserve as this channel has amazing quality content!
Much appreciated!
Our boss flew several of us to NYC for the first time a few years back. He booked us at the Plaza. I believe we were in the same suite Kevin was in! It was a fun filled 3 days.
Been back a few times since. Can't wait to go back again. I love New York!!
Prob the only movies I’ll love 1&2 the same. Usually, I’ll like one of the other more but these 2 were awesome
I loved them both, but part 2,because of NYC has a special place in my heart.
I liked both just the same amount. My favorite scène, when he plays the videotape to get rid of the hotel concierge and security., including Cliff... IT'S A LIE!! 😂🤣
Nicely done! I would not have guessed that 95th ave or street scene was shot in California or the Duncans toy chest was in Chicago!
A trip down memory lane 😁 home alone films are brilliant 😁😊
We watch home alone 1 & 2 every Christmas holiday season!
Top Of The Rock, Empire State Terraces and Top Of The World (WTC) were entire New York's 90's panorama.
You just gotta love the deep history behind the concrete jungle 🗽.
You definitely should make more filming locations videos....I recommend you do the movies big daddy, anger management, the king of staten island, little nicky, Spiderman movies, and goodfellas
Love it! I was such a huge fan of Home Alone - loved both movies! Thanks for this awesome tour Jon!
R.I.P WTC
I'm glad they still have the tridents in the museum. Beautiful tribute
this movie and elf were the main reasons i wanted to visit new york! now that ive visited a few times i want to live there. Awesome video!
Ugh! Now I gotta rent the movie...at 2:50 in the morning lol
My favorite childhood movie of all time!
Ez Paella is my favorite food place down there! The employees there are always so nice.
Home alone 2 will always be iconic like NYC. 🍂🤎
This is my all time favorite movie and tbh the reason I moved to New York
Thank you so much for all the tips I will be going to NYC in Jun 1-7 2022 and of course I will be wearing my mask. I will be doing all FREE thing and you have help me out a lot to locate what I needed to do for FREE.
Great content bro
When I see the ice rink I think of Serendipity (John Cusack and Kate Beckinsale) movie.
I leave for NYC next week! First time going and Im gonna spend Christmas over there! I’m excited to see all the HA2 locations. It’s my favorite Christmas movie.
I love both Home Alone movies but I did have more fun watching Lost in New York than the original :D
so much nostalgia
Home Alone 2 waaaaay better!! The cheese pizza scene was the best🗽🎄🍕
Im french and i watch your videos since 2 years i really love this video thank you this is such a good idea
I'm not going to New York during Christmas time but during the New Years. But Home Alone 2 was my first exposure to New York, and I have always wanted to go ever since I was a little kid.
Wait until the football sized rats chasing giant fly cockroaches run out in front of you🤗
This video is like a must-watch recap after watching Home Alone 2~! Thanks for filming the main places.! I watched the movie last night and I'm here along with your narration on Christmas.!🎄❄
That's what i was thinking to do 😁
Magic magic magic 🥰🥰🥰 So much love for this movie and your video is fabulous. I have to watch it again now. Thank you Jon , love your work , keep the location films coming
👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
@@HereBeBarr yes, do an Elf on location :)
What a great idea for a video!
Thanks
Heading next week and will do my Home Alone 2 tour
Love Home Alone 2 better for sure! Christmas in NYC is always beautiful! 🌲 🚕 🏙
This is awesome, love reliving it in 2021!
Thanks Ben!!
FAO actually reopened Nov 2018, not in 2019. I was there. It was my first trip to NY and I’ll never forget it!!
I loved this video so much 😍 missing New York a lot right now. And my favorite is definitely home alone 2!
The brick scene and the “hold it right there”
Thank you for this. I was just watching HA2. This brought back so many great memories of the movie!!
Home Alone and Home Alone 2 are still some of my all time fave Christmas movies! I do like Home Alone 2 better because of the New York theme. I still want to see Rockefeller Center someday and see that huge Christmas tree all lit up.
That's interesting how some of the locations in the movie weren't actually filmed in New York. When I first saw the movie I thought, wow, New York has some cool toy stores, not realizing that had been filmed in Chicago. Fao Schwartz sounds like a cool place to check out if I ever get the chance!
home alone 2, loved the pranks he did on those wet bandits, it really captured Nyc so well for it feeling so creepy at night and the way its so crowded lol..
This was the video i was waiting for, thank youu
Love it! Spider-Man / MCU. Ghostbusters. I Am Legend.
🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Just got back from NY and caught one of the last Rockettes show before they cancelled. We went to all of the Home Alone spots. You didn't mention Bethesda Terrace in Central Park in your video! That was a must see spot for me. We also went to Bleeker St Pizza and the food was fabulous. We talked to the owner a bit as we were visiting from Texas and he wanted to know how things were here with Covid. He thanked us for coming to his spot and my wife told him he had Jon Barr to thank for that. He showed us your picture at the front counter he had. Thanks so much for all of your NY videos!
Love this! A bit late, but so glad you reviewed everything. I love Home Alone 1 and 2.
One of my FAVORITE Christmas movies. Just watched it last night. Thanks for this!! 😎👍👍
My buddy Jay went to New York twice in the 90s to see the filming locations from the movies The Warriors and Goodfellas, his favourites, he also got pics of himself at other locations like Radio City and Rockefeller Center, there was no tree, it was summer.
We would have had a whip round for your suite at the plaza!! Thanks for a great vid!
😮
Home Alone 2 > 1
…Just because of the NYC vibes 🎄
Brilliant idea!!
Thanks Jason
Kevin owned NYC! Wasnt the toy store the old FAO Schwartz? I know its since moved to rockefeller ctr. Loved the PAELLA
Just modeled off FAO was Chicago
Great Video for us home alone 2 fans
5) Carnegie Hall. I worked in the Press Department of Carnegie Hall in 1983.
Visiting with my kids and husband for the first time on New Year’s Eve! 🤗
