Hunts Point Bronx NY and Southern Boulevard In The South Bronx, New York City Tour
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 янв 2022
- Hunts Point Avenue Bronx NY with a Southern Boulevard detour was my main route as I captured creativity unique to the South Bronx. The diversity, mood, music, graffiti, and general winter vibe from Southern Boulevard through Hunts Point New York were represented. Enjoy this beautiful neighborhood with an open mind. A rare New York City tour from what you may be used to. Hunts Point NYC and generally, the South Bronx of today is so welcoming which is a huge contrast from how it was portrayed years ago.

I grew up in Tiffany St. in 50-60 and half of the 70's. All have changed
When I grew up on Hunts Point in the 60’s and 70’s . Southern Blvd was the place to shop.
Jeans and cloths at Harry’s Army Navy. Shoes at Thom McCann . A stroll through Kressges near Westchester. Toys from Wishnas Toy store.
The Chinese restaurant with the best chow mein.
Going with my mom to buy a washer at Vims.
Movies at the Spooner or the Blvd Theater.
Thanks for sharing those good feelings from the years. 🤗😊🤗😊
That’s where I go to see my grandma she lives around there
Thanks for sharing, Izaiah 😊
PROUD TO BE FROM HUNTS POINT!!!!
🙌🏿😊I'm working on another Hunt's Point video. Stay tuned.
thanks
You're welcome!
Thank you I can show my daughter my home
It's so nice to know you have a connection with the video.👍🏾 Your daughter will be excited. 😊
New York City. My home town. Let's get it and boogy down Bronx.
🫡🇺🇸🫡🇺🇸🫡🇺🇸🫡
great to see the point I went to Gompers in the early 70s although I was born n raised on burke ave (Eastchester gardens) the south Bronx was my second home from jewmans to the hp market spofford and the penny factory I stomped it all
I'm 64 now retired and living in the Philippines but I will always be from the Bronx. thanks for sharing
It's a good feeling to know that my content connects positively with others. I did a search on Gompers and learned it's been closed since 2012. The Bronx really needs more good vocational schools like Gompers since the traditional educational route doesn't serve many of the youth here. In general, the South Bronx has gotten major upgrades in the form of new apartment buildings. They seem to be springing up everywhere. HP certainly doesn't look as run-down as what you might have been used to seeing years ago. 😊 Enjoy your stay in the beautiful 🇵🇭🇵🇭.
@@EdGoPlaces Dem hoes tho,
n the Wedge omg
👏 Congratulations on retirement. I'm 43 years old and grew up in the South Bronx, East Tremont section. I lived in East Chester Gardens as well. I moved upstate NY about two hours away. I will always be proud of where I'm from! Enjoy life brother. Peace✌
My parents used to live at the Eastchester Gardens PJ's (Projects). So did my 2 sisters. My parents have passed on. My sisters both moved out of New York City. One lives in Arlington, Virginia. The other lives in Malabar, Florida. As for me, I live in Southern California.
I knew some peeps from Eastchester Gardens. Gun Hill!! 5 train!!
It was such a joy to watch this video. Brought back a lot of memories. The old five and six story tenement buildings, though reconditioned, still look amazing. I used to live on Simpson Street and then on Aldus Street when I was kid. Both were a hop and skip from Southern Blvd and Hunts Point Ave. Needless to say, virtually everything has changed since. The street dividers down the middle of 163rd is a trip...just makes for a more congested traffic.
Glad you enjoyed it. I missed doing an updated summer video at the same area but it's on my To-Do list.
I would say, it's not dangerous compared to decades ago@@chadabercrombie6860. However, just like any big city in the world, you need to be cautious as you move around,
Last time I was in the Bronx was August 15, 2015. That was the last time. Yes sometimes I do miss it. Thank you for the video.❤❤😂😂 I used to live on Casanova in early early 80s
Good to hear your feelings about The Bronx. 💕😊 You’re welcome back any time 🤗🤗🤗
Another beautiful walk and beautiful scenery of Bronx city. Greetings from Italy.
The Bronx has a large Italian community. I hope to do a video there soon. Regards from NYC.
Smh woooow u guys down syndrome or....?
Wow! It's a really cool video.. big LIKE!!💗
Thank you so much for sharing the video. My friend~!!!💗💗💗
It's nice to know you liked the video and thank you too 😊👍🏾
What a colourful part of NYC!
Yes it is. I love the graffiti. 👍🏾
Everything but White.
So appreciate this video. I grew up there during the 50s and this made me homesick. Our apartment was on the corner of Seneca and Longfellow. 875 Longfellow to be exact. Perhaps one day you can do a video walking down Seneca from Hunts Point Ave. Again thanks so much.
I feel humbled when my videos touch others positively and I'm so glad you liked it 🙏🏼 More videos are in the works and I'll definitely feature other parts of the Hunts Point neighborhood soon to fully represent it. 😊🇺🇸 There's so much to see there
I was born in that building
Hi Gabe. What year?
@@MrMarkgeller I mean you are much older then me I was born in 01. Used to live in apt 1A till like 05
We lived at 1044 Longfellow Avenue which is north of the Bruckner Expressway between Aldus St. and East 165th St. That was one of the nicer blocks in the neighborhood. We moved away in 1961 and I went back to the old block about 10 years ago and found that it hadn't changed all that much although many of the homes had their distinctive entrances redone. The corner grocery store is still there and the elementary school (PS 75) is still there as it has been for a hundred years.
I hope you like the video.😊 Please click the 👍🏼 button. Thank you. I'd love to hear your comments too
The City itself it's a place to be a vibrant and bustling City... Such a wonderful and great place to roam around and explore.
That is a fact. The hustle and bustle is what keeps the city alive and I love it. Thanks for watching btw. 😊
Thanks for the tour ✌️ I'm watching from California 👀
Good to know Cali is in the house 🫡 I miss your ☀️. Thankfully, we’ll be ditching the Jackets in some few weeks here in the BX.
Fiquei impressionada com os carros...todos são carros muito bonitos...aqui no Brasil esse carros são bem caros...
É bom saber sua impressão sobre o que você viu no vídeo. Meu sonho é visitar o Brasil um dia.🇧🇷
@@EdGoPlaces é o meu sonho é visitar Nova York kkkkkkk
Good to have connected with you. Very peaceful channel, how nice to know that there's such channels as yours on youtube. All the best to you.
Thanks for the nice compliment. 😊
That was my old neighborhood I was born in Prospect Avenue and the juice to live at Intervale Avenue
It feels good to reminisce about the good old days. 😊
Many thanks for sharing with us, great scenes from Bronx, enjoyed it a lot👌👌have a nice week

Really entertaining stuff👍👍👍 ciao from italy 🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹🇮🇹
Thanks FiveInItaly! 😃 Greetings from The Bronx. 👋🏼
Amazing footage of a morning stroll. Cityscape with buildings, monument, . Everything is really stunning.
Good to know you enjoyed this video and thanks for your presence. 😊
Hi there Ed, thanks for sharing, the Bronx is a place we hear about here in Europe so when I went to Newyork some years back, I was determined to visit the Bronx.That was back then, before social media and youtube but I don`t think I could do it today after checking too much YT videos and social media.
Still, I really enjoyed watching.
Before social media and youtube? That has to be long before 2005. I have also seen old videos from years ago and The Bronx those days, especially the South Bronx environment looked really dilapidated. It is much better now with many new buildings springing up and a huge facelift. Crime on the other hand, in NYC in general, is a different story now (2022).
@@EdGoPlaces Yes that`s long before 2005, I was in my early 20s and thinking back now, I think I must have been crazy,reckless, careless, and maybe ignorant, but as said, that was before you could see all the bad news and happenings in social media. Today, I'm sure I will choose the places I go well, that`s not to say I stopped adventures, I just choose where I go well.
I subscribed to follow your journey. Locals always have the best tips.
it was worse then… but yeah the bronx and especially hunts point area isn’t exactly a tourist destination.. its poor folk and industrial neighborhoods… what did you expect to see?
Wow! Great video 👍
Thank you! Cheers!😊
Thank you, for representing the Bronx.
Thanks to you too for your unwavering support 😊
thank you for sharing this video
My pleasure. 😊
beautifull artwork
You are so right. 😍 I stood there staring at those graffiti artworks for a long time. 😊
AMAZING ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Thank you so much 😊
Nice New York city !
It sure is! Brons is also diverse with many people from so many different countries. Thanks for visiting

I agree. Hunts Point is an area within New York City and it has its own nice vibe.
Very interesting, the Bronx. Thanks for sharing 👍 Greetings from LeRoy 🐶😀

Dziękuję za udostępnienie
No lie I miss the Bronx 💯
Most people who know The Bronx will understand you 100%. 👍🏾 There's just some vibe about this place that you can't find anywhere.
Me too Grew up on Tremont ave. Grand Concourse, in the 70's, NuyoRican I miss the Bronx.
Compliments to you Ed Go Places on capturing an uplifting contemporary moment and recording the triumph of the finer folks of the Bronx. As you hint the portrayal of the past was an unpleasant history which can be seen in the archival videos from the 1970s and 1980s and Paul Newman's cop action movie "Fort Apache the Bronx, Though there is some absolute truth and horror, there also is exaggeration in much of that storytelling. The happy ending is that the South Bronx has emerged as the welcoming place your good work records and reflects. Cheers.
Thanks, Richard for recognizing my work👍🏾and taking the time to shed some light on the different perspectives of the old South Bronx and now. Look forward to an updated video soon. 😊
@@EdGoPlaces Regards Ed, from 1977 to 1991 I ran an auto parts, tools, and equipment franchised delivery route starting south bound from E163 (Hunts Point Avenue) down Bruckner to E149 where it would turn right and right onto Southern Blvd north bound back to Hunts Pont Avenue. In those old days just about all the businesses on those 2 stretches were automotive industrial. To take a meal break I would go back towards a consumer retail store district. I also worked the numerous salvage yards in Hunts Point. Probably everything has changed, for the better. After 1991 my marketing area was moved uptown around Co oP City and City Island. Great days.
@@richardkluesek4301 Your business is a testament that the Hunts Point area is not all about the vice as some people think, but also about successes as well. Hard-working people uplifting the neighborhood economy. I'm guessing life at the Point in the '70-'80s was a little rougher than now (2023) and doing all those deliveries plus crisscrossing the streets toughened you up a bit. 💪🏽
@@EdGoPlaces Thank You for your kind notice and encouraging words Ed. I met a lot of wonderful working men and business investors during my times in "the Point" and later in the Northeast Bronx doing the car & truck parts and repair business. For a while there was an over shadow of some bad predators but they were outlasted by the decent people who retook and rebuilt the neighborhoods. Some of those bullies will always be around but they will never again bring back the worst of those old days. I miss a lot of friends and most have reached a good retirement too. Its important for those after us to know and understand what and where we came from to fully appreciatate the way things are now. Look forward to your presentations, Peace 'n Cheers.
I like the Bronx,its my favorite borough...
🙌🏿BX😊
Beautiful video clarity and resolution of this sketchy neighborhood with no shortage of artwork on all of the store gates and brick walls. Obviously, the nypd long gave up on this area, similar to Roosevelt Ave
Glad to know you liked the video, David. I think Hunts Point in general has seen some significant cleanup. It's not like years back when you could openly see shady stuff going on and prostitutes walking all over at night. Some people are of the view that the vice has gone underground in this online dominated era but I'm not sure. Hopefully, someone who lives at Hunts Point can let us know what's up. Is it better, same or worse?
Çok güzel bir paylaşım 🤝
Burada vakit geçirdiğiniz için teşekkürler. Videodan keyif almanıza sevindim. 👍🏾😊
keep support and i love this channel. see you friend
It's nice to know you like the content I put out. ✌🏾😊
We used to call Southern Boulevard "the boulevard" in the 1950s. There were three movie theaters on the long block between Hunts Point Avenue/East 163rd St. and Westchester Ave. Sadly all of them are long gone. However Southern Boulevard is still a busy place as seen in this video.
Thanks for that piece of history, Murray 👍🏾 😊. Three on that stretch alone seem like a lot. But looking at it again, it's not like these days when people could watch movies on their phones and other devices.
@@EdGoPlaces And we only had 7 channels of television to watch if we were fortunate enough to have a set and an adequate antenna. Forgotten NY details the lost movie theaters. At one time almost every neighborhood in the city had at least one theater. When we moved to Flushing, Queens in 1961 there were two in the downtown business district but they are now long gone as well.
Saw "Godzilla" at The Lowe's Boulevard in 1955. Southern Boulevard was our Disneyland back then.
@@1575murray hello murray excuse the butt in, but the younger kids dont realize that in the times you and I remember we did'nt have phones, except for the coin pay phones on the sidewalks and inside stores and landlines in businesses and some better off people who had one at home usually on the wall in mom's kitchen or dad's desk. So yeah movie houses were a big deal. And a television at home was another miracle marvel if dad had a good job.
YEAH AND ONE OF THE MOVIE THEATERS WAS THE SPOONER!!!
Beautiful city lovely atmosphere, nice walking tour 👌👌 thank you for great sharing have a good day take care 💖👌
Thank you! You too! Your presence here is appreciated. Stay tuned for more awesome videos from me this weekend. 😊

I do not miss The Bronx 😂✌️🏽 Cool footage though
lol, 🤣
The point in the 90s was on point. The strip clubs the pimps the hustle faile st spot Ford Ave Seneca ave Gilbert place I lived in 1200 Seneca for ten years for those that know? the chicken spot still there?
The point these days looks more chill and laid back. At least that is the vibe I got from the few times that I went there. Hope I'm not mistaken.
Chicken spot still there 😭😭
@@i2Craftyy Lol.. I can see you really miss that Chicken spot. 😁🍗🍗🍗🍗
@@EdGoPlaces lmaoo nah I live there
@ 8:03. Double parking at a fire hydrant. If she's in that bus lane she's got the trifecta. I guess traffic etiquette hasn't gotten any better in the Bronx.
👍🏾you’re observant 😊
Where the elevator train is, That's Westchester and Southern Blvd. Hunts Point is way down still
👍🏾I had to double-check the map again. Hunts Point Ave meets Southern Blvd but way down as you said.
We used to call southern boulevard “the bully”
"The Bully"?🤣🤣How on earth did that name start?
My Titi use to live in HP
Nice to know. 😊 HP has its own unique vibe. I'll be doing another video there soon.
Those are the slums for real tho.
1:37 Whoa, rude!
Real as it gets. Showing what crosses my camera lens with minimum editing as possible. I appreciate your opinion. 😊
I grew in that very area. Simpson St. and then Southern Blvd./Freeman St. It was a jungle in the 70's!
I can't imagine how rough it was then. I guess those years helped to give the BX a bad rap.
I grew up on Home. St. next to Freeman Train St. Seven Immortals Gang.
People now rec the hood areas like its luxury or something lol BTW I used live around here
Anything on Southern Blvd. is NOT Hunts point. Hunts Point is Hunts Point Ave at Bruckner Blvd. down to Food Center Drive and the immediate vicinity. Then you have Tiffany Street from Barreto Point Park to Lafayette. Anything in between those two locations is Hunts Point.
👍🏾Your info is well noted, nesNYC. 🫡
Dizem q esse bairro perigoso
Esse medo vem da história. O Bronx ficou muito mais seguro ao longo dos anos. No entanto, você ainda precisa ser cauteloso como em qualquer grande cidade.
Thank God the Bronx is going thur gentrification
Yes. Long overdue. Everyone is going to benefit one way or another so it's all good. ✌🏾
Almost a rhyming timing [r] a,p mmh..Moschino shame toast blez
Where’s all the hot women at??
I cant believe people have positive attitudes about this video. Hunts point is a ganged up dump. I worked there for 35 yrs. You dont want to live there. Get it.
How long ago have you been away from The Bronx? I can guess it has to be many years ago.
@@EdGoPlaces I only moved away 1 1/2 yrs go. Now I live on the water front in VA. Its really not that bad compared to other ghettos in the US.
ABSOLUTELY DISCUSTING
This looks like a third world country
Worst neighborhoood of th worst borough in the worst city of the worst state. Ya, “looks lovely”.
It's a whole lot better now compared to decades ago.
That was the weakest tour of the Legendary Hunts Point, Bronx, N. Y ever!. U coulda showed the inside of hunts point where they famous at .. oh well ... Thanks anyway 🗽🗽
