Driving Downtown Streets - Park Avenue - New York City New York USA - Episode 1.
Starting Point: Park Avenue - goo.gl/maps/56FKLZWstj12 .
Park Avenue is a wide New York City boulevard[4] which carries north and southbound traffic in the borough of Manhattan, and is also a wide one-way pair in the Bronx. For most of the road's length in Manhattan, it runs parallel to Madison Avenue to the west and Lexington Avenue to the east. Park Avenue's entire length was formerly called Fourth Avenue; the title still applies below 14th Street.[5] Meanwhile, the section between 14th and 17th Street is called Union Square East, and between 17th and 32nd Streets, the name Park Avenue South is used. In the Bronx, Park Avenue runs in several segments between the Major Deegan Expressway and Fordham Road.[6]
Route
The road that becomes Park Avenue originates as the Bowery. From Cooper Square at 8th Street to Union Square at 14th Street, it is known as Fourth Avenue, a 70-foot-wide (21 m) road carrying northbound traffic. At 14th Street, it turns slightly northeast to align with other avenues drawn up in the Commissioners' Plan of 1811. From 14th Street to 17th Street, it forms the eastern boundary of Union Square and is known as Union Square East; its southbound lanes merge with Broadway south of 15th Street, and the thoroughfare divides into two distinct portions in the one-block section between 14th and 15th Streets. From 17th Street to 32nd Street, it is known as Park Avenue South. Above 32nd Street, for the remainder of its distance, it is known as Park Avenue, a 140-foot-wide boulevard.
In popular culture
Will Smith, as a policeman, pursues a criminal by jumping off the Park Avenue Viaduct in the 1997 film Men in Black.
In the 2007 film I Am Legend, Will Smith again appears on the Park Avenue Viaduct, where his character is captured by a vampire's snare.
In the 2012 film The Avengers, the climax takes place on the Park Avenue Viaduct.
On the TV series The Odd Couple, Felix Unger and Oscar Madison live at 1049 Park Avenue.
On the TV series Diff'rent Strokes, Phillip Drummond, with his daughter, Kimberly and adopted sons, Willis and Arnold Jackson live at 697 Park Avenue.
The PBS documentary Park Avenue: Money, Power and the American Dream sheds light on gap between the impoverished people living on Park Avenue in the South Bronx and the extremely wealthy living at 740 Park Avenue in Manhattan.
In the song "Youth Gone Wild" by American band Skid Row, Park Avenue is mentioned in the lyrics: "I said 'Hey man, there's something that you oughta know. / I tell ya Park Avenue leads to Skid Row.'"
The stage and film musical How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying takes place in the fictional "Park Avenue office building of World Wide Wicket Company, Inc."
The street lent its name to the Buick Park Avenue, a large luxury sedan that was produced from 1977 to 2005.[citation needed]
In the intro to the late 1960s - early 1970s TV show Green Acres, Zsa Zsa Gabor's character sings "Darling I love but give me Park Avenue!", where she lived before moving to rural Hooterville with her husband, the lawyer-turned-farmer.[18]
The City of New York, often called New York City or simply New York, is the most populous city in the United States.[9] Located at the southern tip of the State of New York, the city is the center of the New York metropolitan area, one of the most populous urban agglomerations in the world.[10][11] A global power city,[12] New York City exerts a significant impact upon commerce, finance, media, art, fashion, research, technology, education, and entertainment, its fast pace[13] defining the term New York minute.[14] Home to the headquarters of the United Nations,[15] New York is an important center for international diplomacy[16] and has been described as the cultural and financial capital of the world.

Good video. No music, just peace and the loud streets of NYC.
And traffic
Oo
@@survun2440 hik
Nice detour theres a building in the way.
I'm so bored I just sat in traffic for 34 minutes at home. Man I need more to do.
The beautiful view of NYC buildings made it up for me.
Thank you for a video of NYC, NOT a MUSIC video, which so many of the other NYC sites are. Drives me nuts. I just want to see the city not go to a concert. Love the vid! Thanks again!!!
Great comment Chatsworh!! I appreciate hearing it my friend! :)
Thank you! I've been fascinated by New York City since my teens and this was a cheap way to experience at least a part of it.
The buildings are awesome to see in the city!
1:00 driver took a left turn when the sign says no left turns lolol
I loved the video and enjoyed the ride. Thanks for showing us such an amazing city. This video rocks.
Great videos. Love seeing nyc from this perspective. Thanks for the good work.
The quality of the video is perfect!
Thanks for sharing!
ikr
Excelente video.... Saludos desde Buenos Aires Argentina!
vidéos magnifique!. merci beaucoup( thank you)/ from France👍
I visited NYC on 2006 and I got depressed after seeing ground zero, I could feel something terrible happened there, I'll never come back there, you still can hear people screaming and dying, I think you understand what I'm saying, lots of love from Italy
Absolutely - Lots of love from the USA as well!
Thought ground zero came out in 2011
Well, terrible things happened in Rome as well and it is still a gorgeous city to visit.
fantastic video thanks love this place,the older parts look amazing ,polite drivers Americans ,i have been in NYC but this place is now on my bucket list
Love the video. Even saw where I used to work, Bankers Trust Building (left-hand side), 48th to 49th Street.
Such a beautiful city!
Agreed!
yes! :-)
Marshall Steeves true

Amazing video mate!
Amazing......Wonderful........Awesome
*congrats for almost 500K subs*
I was hoping to one day drive my Buick Park Avenue on Park Avenue in NYC but I think I'll just watch instead. Looks very stressful haha. Good footage!
thanks for video
I remember when my dad made me drive in NYC. I was just 15 and had my Learners Permit. Most stressful time of my life.
I grew up in Colorado; my Dad waited until there was ice on the road (left over from a blizzard) before teaching me how to drive.😁
Apparently, Dads make their kids do things at crazy times or crazy places.
YAAAAAAS! I have a friend who lives on 70th and Park, beautiful area....
Nice job, thank you.
Excellent videos. I love NYC but oh my god that traffic. even riding in a taxi makes me nuts. :-)
A wide variety of things can be done to reduce traffic congestion.
As always, the regular public transport such as trains and buses always helps.
Park and ride services are good too and should be heavily promoted to remind people such services exist.
Thank You So Much!
Good video...Love these driving formats..I'm a Brooklyn resident for 52 years...(new Yorker for life!)...But the city is just too congested for me.... Haven't been in the city In a couple of years...Yet this video brings me back to the electric ,hectic vibe that is constant... Like I always say,'if you can drive in NYC, you can drive anywhere'..Thanks for posting....Maybe In future you can venture into parts of Brooklyn....By coney island, Williamsburg,etc.... You can find every ethnic group in Brooklyn Just by driving across the borough...Historical too...Safe driving,!!!👍🚌🚐🚕🚗🚘🚦🚧🚙
Welcome to my city you did a great job
Good to hear from you again and thanks! Will be in the Miami area for filming soon!

I love NY!!!!!
thanks mr j.do washington squair next.south of houeton,please.i use to drive tuck here,and lived not to off.
It's funny how you can hear a car horn once every few seconds. And if you look at the people crossing the streets, you'll notice each has a unique arm swing.
I love the video, and thanks for posting it; but the New Yorker in me has to point out that, contrary to the title, you're driving uptown. 🤓✌
It's actually Midtown.
He's heading uptown, it's the direction he's heading, not where he is...;)
Nice channel nice video! I like it! My suggestion, I think it is good if you put some light music in the background. Consider it. :)
как на экскурсии побывал)
12:01
I Am Legend.
Thats the one!
Avengers too!
YES! I was just about to comment and ask this, such a powerful scene!
@@12345678909269 NO! NO!
i love new York next year i am going to nyc
Excellent camera position and video quality (I can see why this comes up first on searches). Haven't driven there in 20 years, but felt like I was there again (btw, never had any great problems driving NYC. If you want streets full of idiots, go upstate to Albany, Syracuse, etc.)
Watched!
Thank you :)
Can you tell me which video recorder you have used to capture this video??
What cam are you using? I love the quality of the video!
Nice g
Can you guys make a driving video from North to south manhattan?
beautiful city.I wish and I hope you'll do some videos IN EUROPE. Greetings from ALGERIA. Thanks
The place I will call home one day
Hey what camera did you use?
Very cool! The whole city seems like it's downtown of any other city. Is there other neighbourhoods where you see houses?
What camera do you use ?
I love Park Av. ..I was walking there
Highly recommend anyone that visits spend some time on Park Avenue - Its a classic!
J Utah Yes, it is uncredible experience 😛
great city , i wish i could visit one day , but seems it just dream which will never become reality :(
It will! Trust me :) Been there twice, and I am already dying just to get a one second taste of New York again. But, you know what they say!
If you can make it there... you can make it anywhere.
Just keep on hoping & dreaming like me
+Neeks Clemente yeah only hope , this is what i can do only . how i wish
make a dream come true
visit Detroit
it's hard getting any where in newyork especially manhattan
I will b there soon WOWWWWWW NY.
The difference of this and today is nuts
There is a scene in the film Nerve, in which a motorcycle is driven blind folded at 60 mph, which was partly filmed on Park Ave, including the tunnel (aka Murray Hill Tunnel). This scene included another tunnel or underpass. Does anyone know where?
i just came here after watching sanghai road trip. Road there was wider and modern too
i think i'ts the most interesting place of world.
My dream is to go visit NewYork city and Detroit. Americans are lucky people what a wonderful country
i knoooow, i get major envy, whenever i hear someone i know, got to visit it lol
Enjoy your trip when you go :)
One day :)
Love USA 😍💕💕😘😘😘🙋💘
i like new york city
What type of car do you have SUV or Sedan?
New York: •exists•
Taxi: hippity hoppity you are now my property
Can I use a piece of this for an intro for my youutbe video?
super
By the way, J Utah, do you make this by yourself?
I mean, are you the driver and the man behind this??
I have seen that you have a lot of videos but in other cities in the US, you should do something like this but at nigth! And with some music if this is possible, it can be great, trust me lol.
Keep it up (: Consider this idea, i am going to suscribe for future videos. I'm very interested
why is there a lot of chevrolet suburban, cadillac escalade and gmc yukon ?
Sorry for a stupid question (I'm not from USA), but what is the single red dot on every taxi back?
Good question. Anybody know?
who owns those cars and where can they park them at night?? do these old apartments have basement garage or something like that??
Newer apartment buildings sometimes have underground garages, older ones not so much. There's also public parking garages where you can rent a spot monthly or by the hour. Most people that live downtown don't have cars and if they do they don't drive every day (just for out of town trips, when moving something big etc) and take public transportation instead (parking is expensive and traffic makes driving slow). Lots of people drive to work from the surrounding suburbs/neighborhoods that don't have as much public transportation. You can also park on the street (if you find a spot).
Pause at 4:50 on the left, I rlly wish the ford crown Vic cars can come back I rlly like em
Holy shit what Graphic Engine is this ??? when will this game come out. I can't wait. The BETA look great
SubcribeItWontHURT I wish they do a GTA 6 in NYC but the full Manhattan I mean it would be great or in Miami so fuc...n awesome
