    Thank you for making these videos. It looks like it takes a lot of work, but good exercise for you! I really enjoy watching them, especially now that I no longer live in NY. They help me revisit places I loved.

    A good trick question is this...where in Manhattan is Main Street located ? Answer.. On .Roosevelt Island ( as you correctly stated below, is technically located in Manhattan).

    Thank you. Oops, why is the lighthouse temporarily closed? when will it reopen? I did not find any info on the web about the closure. And that 'temporarily" on the notice is spelled wrong, funny!!

      I don’t know why it was closed either.

    Great video actionkid105...On Tuesdays, FDR 4 Freedoms Park is closed to the public...it would have been nice to show that ...maybe next time. I like the way you slid down the slide in Rainey Park, Astoria... The Cornell Tech Campus looks awesome, with still more construction in the works. The Smallpox Hospital looks eerily unwelcoming, especially at night. Overall, wonderful video.

    I grew up across the river in Astoria at the Astoria housing projects, and any chance I could get to come to Roosevelt Island I would. one day I convinced my mom to take a ride with me there (at the time I was a BMX rider) and once we got there and saw it she fell in love with the place. We would go on weekends as our weekend getaway and have a few bites of homemade sandwiches. I'm talking 1980's and I still want to live there but now it's gotten so expensive ughhhhhhhh

    A very enjoyable video. I did feel sad that the only people that you interacted with, were those kids, with their ugly 'gang signs.' They should have been edited out. Also, I think that it would have been good if @ 25:00, you crossed the street and filmed FDNY's specialist vehicles?

    You must be doubling down on those rotisserie chickens from Costco. I can only eat a half a day but then again I'm not walking a NY winter.
