New York cab drivers don’t play soon as the light turn green they really honking no matter what borough you in lol
I grew up here in 60's and 70's. Don't look like much has changed. It was really bad then and it still is bad now.
A lot of us from the Bronx would never visit Brownsville back then... also people from other parts of Bklyn didn't go there either
It I heard it was wild
It looks a lot different. I remember shoot outs all the time. So many people I grew up with are gone. I lost my brother there.
That’s the sad reality of the area. I’m sorry to hear that
The 60’s & 70’s! Pitkin Avenue lit up at night for Christmas!! ❤️❤️. Seth Low Projects!! ❤️❤️
That's right Seth low projects Brownsville 4 Eva we have plenty of stories lol ✌
Seth Low I'm from New Haven Connecticut I know how to get there with my eyes closed my father still lives there although he doesn't have to he can certainly afford to live in a better neighborhood but that's his home that's what he knows and everyone shows have nothing but love and respect
PS.150 Mr.Boxer my old coach
@@cashrule7356 yup 150 was right across the street from our building
home sweet home. da ville neva ran neva will...
That slogan is true Brownsville 4 Eva and to many stories 4 real ✌
M.O.P. New York Salute(home sweet home baby)
Gtfo of there bro it’s a shit hole
Seems like a shit Hole
Firing Squad
This kid KNOWS what he's talkin about. Brownsville (Ocean Hill, Stuyvesant Heights) M.O.P., Boot Camp Click, John Gotti, Murder Inc. & Mike Tyson were all Brownsville residents. Really the only other places in NYC similar to the crime waves and destruction back then were the Lower East Side (Alphabet City/L.E.S.) Manhattan, Harlem Manhattan, South Bronx, Red Hook Brooklyn, East New York Brooklyn, Crown Heights Brooklyn, Bed-Sty Brooklyn, Coney Island Brooklyn, Bushwick Brooklyn, Soundview Bronx, Hunts Point Bronx, Hell's Kitchen Manhattan, South Jamaica Queens & Rockaway Queens. All were DANGEROUS and LAWLESS areas back in late 1960s to mid 1990s.
Thanks man, I have videos on most of those areas of you wanna check them out.
You forgot about East Flatbush 😏
@@topeb5363 I lived on E.53 & D, already know !
Facts, Harlem was OFF THE CHAIN back then
@@bigsurge5906 No doubt, Not to far from me. I used to live on New York Ave between Beverly and Cortelyou. Use to pass by your way all the time walking to school. Or taking a dollar cab on ave D. I use to go to Nazareth regional H.S. not to far from Tilden. H.S. close to you. You already Know!.
who came here to watch this, after watching podcast HotBoxin' Tyson & Shannon Briggs?
Yeah haha
Word lol
Facts
Yessss
I am making a boxing 🥊 documentary be sure to check it out
I live in northern Canada and always found big cities like this to be fascinating. I could never live around so many other people and the traffic, but it's interesting to see.
Luckily I live in the suburbs so I get to escape it a little bit but I see what you mean
I feel you , I don’t think I could survive in your neck of the woods . Interesting perspective.
Love Canada except for their Covid craziness lately. When I was a kid in the early 60’s my family went to Omemee, Ontario to go fishing. I couldn’t live in NYC either. Even though I live in basically good area I wish I could be out in the country. This channel allows me to see these New York areas safely.
I suggest you give some locations and directions, such as, “Heading East on Linden Blvd, turning right onto the service road of the Van Wyck Expressway and now heading south.” Some of us know these neighborhoods but cannot see the street signs. Otherwise, I love these videos. Keep up the great work!
STFU idiot
went down memory lane here. my old place. thank you.
Childhood memories galore adolescence and fatherhood Brownsville the love continues Peace
I lived there over on Blake Ave when I was a kid in the late 70s to the start of the 80s. Went to school at what is named Betty Shabazz today. Rickety elevators that smelled of urine. Blood in the stairwell. Broken glass everywhere. Rough times.
That said, it’s an oddly nostalgic feeling seeing these streets again after over 40 years.
Love the videos im from California L.A to be exact. Like how different and unique N.Y looks.. keep it up 👍 neutral dropper here
Thanks for checking out the channel 👍
From NYC Brooklyn to California LA it's real in the hood no games to be played not or less if u want to period.
Buttercup58 whatchu expect, it’s the hood of all hoods in NY and ain’t nothing pretty about it. The Ville not a game or a joke. Them streets is some of the hardest in the whole NYC..official facts💯‼️
@@TMGettingMoney real talk I grew up in the Ville real stuff
It don’t matter what town you from
There’s killers everywhere
The hardest of the knocks; Brownsville, baby.
Brownsville long history of not playing around the streets are real
Jermaine Gray real shit
Paul G the ville never ran never will
The last block you drove on was Bristol Street my aunt use to live on that block r.i.p childhood memories
See I knew I had to go down one last block!
Yes a lot of child hood memories Brownsville 4 Eva ✌
Good shit. What I’ve learned in my hood is that if you just simply be the nice guy then everyone just nice to you. But if you acting tough then you in trouble with everyone else.
That's good life advice no matter what, Lucky. Be nice, give and expect to get respect, keep the tough part hidden so if it has to come to the fore, look out! My experience is that someone who needs to front that attitude 24/7 ain't got shit to back it up.
Inspectah deck has a song about brownsville its called cold world
Sean price is from Brownsville
@@broncas67 so is mike tyson, riddick bowe, and shannon briggs
Good song.
@@broncas67 RIP Sean P aka Ruck
I live here and I’ve never felt unsafe even though a kid got shot over a basketball me and my little siblings were walking from school and saw them cleaning the blood. And the next day it’s like it never happened. Me and my older sister sometimes walk around at night but we’ve never been robbed or anything like that.
i go to 284
Because ur a native lol 9/10 nobody or nothing will happen to u!
@@vlqnes9247 i went to 298, was a first grader leaving school during the shooting there years ago, same stuff still happens now.
Yo moon. The footage was good in the rain man.
Would liked to have seen the BRC Brownsville Recreation Center, but great video. Thank you 🙂
Brilliant video MOONEY 🇬🇧👍
My father was born and raised here. He was a hardass cuz of it. Have you done East Flatbush? I lived on E 40th and Lenox Rd, around the corner from Kings County Hospital
Fortunoff's was on Livonia Avenue as you said but it was in East New York, not Brownsville. Sadly the areas have been re-districted by the pols. Now, ENY is what used to be called New Lots. New Lots was a city at one time which was dissolved at the time of the consolidation of 1898 which created the City of Greater New York.
Thanks for the tour.
I always keep my eyes open to see any fellow telephone cable splicers out working or any of our Central Offices as you do your drives...
Brownsville also isn’t the ideal to live due to it’s location in Brooklyn. Certain parts of park slope which are apparently called south slope which is weird but we still call it park slope lol That “south slope” region from 3-7 av where packed with coke dealers and gang violence that it’s amazing how far it came to changing. Only because of the great location that basically allows anyone to reach manhattan on subway in less than 15 minutes. My father ego emigrated from Mexico to America in the 70’s said park slope was dangerous in the 80 and 90’s as he was robbed. Times have changed and park slope is definitely Brooklyn’s finest places to live
I used to work for a deli close there. On rockaway parkway and ave D . By the pepsi company. Crazy people be over there . And a lot of girls been kidnapped and raped
This place looks crazy in the rain 🤯🤯🤯
Shout out to VanDyke!! 420 blake Avenue 1994, who was there??
Keep posting man💙
Boxer Zab Judah and also the rap group MOP is from there too
Just found your channel. I really like these tours and the background info, thanks
Thanks Joe! Welcome to the channel
MOONEY, I know Paulie Vario and his brother Tuddy had the Pitkin Avenue Cab Company as there front back in the day. Some of the older Murder Inc. guys used to hang around there, Henry Hill, Burke, etc. Could you swing back again and show what it looks like today? Thanks, love the videos.
I’ll add that to my list
I liked the video. To me it seems like a tough neighborhood to live in. Don't think anyone would like to own a business there either. It's probably all because it's too expensive to live in the better parts of town. Great tour bro
👍 yeah anywhere else the cost of living is unbelievable
Damn.. I learned so much from your video. Just subscribed. Your dad’s channel bought me here👍
Thanks for the sub!!
I love the old architecture too, Mooney, and thanks for the tour! I believe I've seen you drive past that same post office in another video. Maybe on the way to the Hole? Anyway, thanks again! Always excellent videos!
I used to live here in the sixties and we shopped on Pitkin Ave. My favorite stores were Young World and Stadium!✌️
I doubt if I'll ever visit New York because I'm spoiled rotten hunting and fishing in Canada, so it's really nice to have a chance to get a tour of Brownsville on channels like this. Thanks for posting this.
Thanks man
Really good commentary. You really know your stuff
Thanks!
OMFG I lost it when you said Stuntman & Cameraman were your uncle & father! What a coincidence! I love them! Was just randomly watching RUclips videos.
Proud to say it man! Enjoy the videos!
Brownsville is very much gentrified now. Yuppies are buying all the Brownstones and Businesses beyond Atlantic Ave. You can’t find a house in the section of “ocean Hill” for less than $1.5M
"Gentrification" is code word for "reverse segregation".
That's a fuckin lie Brownsville ain't changing
Trust me, yuppies won't be moving to brownsville, they will get the scare of a lifetime
Really appreciate your video. I love the work you put in giving us the view with all these facts and stories. Subbed
Thanks Kyle
I enjoy your tours, just sometimes wish they covered more of a neighborhood. Keep up the good work!
I wish I could cover the whole neighborhood but the videos would end up being too long maybe I’ll figure something out one day
MOONEY Dash Cam : I am sure you will.
Love these vids brody, very informative! Can't wait for you to do East New York, been hearing lately that itll be gentrified but havent seen shit in terms of gentrification lately
Drive down Atlantic Ave between Logan street and Pennsylvania Ave. Brand new paved roads sidewalks flower medians and old fashioned street posts lights installed. It's coming.
@@kevinjairam2873 well that cant be enough to warrant gentrification. I mean then that'd be saying that incoming yuppies can only get nice roads and such. Still havent seen any white people
What hood is it when u get off on rock way and walk down to Atlantic ave by the Atlantic center ?
The rain was getting u ready for your Super Bowl trip in the snow.
73pct are where all the hardcore cops are!! 75th pct in East NY is rough to.
I have a video talking a little bit about the corruption in the 75
@@MOONEYDashCam Yes it was bad the cops were fucked up back in the day
Yes both parts
like it is they still are
The police @ 73rd pct are a big part of the reason crime flourished in Brownsville since the turn of the 20th century. A lot of corrupt police were removed, but until this day that Pct still has too many corrupt police in it. However, it did make a big difference in crime in the area & personal safety; when the corruption was reduced, new single family houses replaced overgrown lots & new residents with less tolerance for mediocrity ,began fighting & speaking out against the ills of the neighborhood, along side long time residents. There is still crime , drugs & inconsistent services rendered in Brownsville, but the area itself is far better than it was. Btw, Brownsville is much larger than you stated & there is also OceanHill Brownsville.
You're a good narrator, dude. You do your research.👍
Thank you
“Never Ran Never Will “
My grandparents lived on Saratoga in the 20s. My mom worked in a factory on lavonia. Eventually she met my dad who was tied in with the mob. Italian/Jew mix couples were common back then. So yes I'm a mutt lol. Thanks for going over the history of this area.
Don’t call yourself a mutt
Just found the channel. I'm looking forward to going through the Mob related videos, i also enjoy east coast US history.
I love that thank you
I hope when you drove around Brownsville you brought back up!
You got the coolest dad and uncle ever. I love neutral drop
Thanks dude
i remember cycling thru here looking for vegan food
You won’t find much vegan food there... but I’m sure you know that now
durianrider real talk..you lucky you made it outta there with your life. Because you was definitely in the kill zone! Official facts!!💯‼️
@mopoligist420 I don't believe that. White people are untouchable in minority neighborhoods. Whereas, others are not, because they don't "snitch" - for fear of retribution.
Lmao hipster
@mopoligist420 Become racially conscious. Embrace your ancestry and ancestral descendants.
Ive been workin there for 20 years. I'm a white guy and I'm pretty comftorble there. My father survived the 70s and hes one of a handful of businesses that didnt jump ship. It was so bad that people just left their businesses and buildings. Hes got some stories
I'm from Brownsville not a place I want to stay forever in.
He has full of stories right
I walked all over Brownsville as a visiting nurse & I have been in most of the housing developments, private homes & alternative housing in the neighborhood. I have never been mugged, intimidated, had my car stolen, or been threatened in any way. In fact, once ppl began to realize I was a nurse serving the community they started befriending me,watching my car, escorting me in some places, telling me the best places to park, what streets to avoid, etc. I was welcomed & treated with respect by thugs, & ordinary ppl alike & I had absolutely no fear of being there. I actually was more afraid of Brighton, CI, bay ridge & parts of Bensonhurst where ppl’s cars would be broken into on the regular, junkies would stand in your way nearly demanding a contribution & I was unsuccessfully robbed twice, hmmm. I exercise caution anywhere I go because it’s not really about the neighborhood your in; it’s about the individual ppl that make up that neighborhood. Ppl are unpredictable, so you should be as well.
@@christinan6450 Thank you
Was it that dangerous before? What made it so dangerous. Just curious
The home off Larry king and iron mike Tyson
MOONEY Dash Cam
Can you do a driving tour of other run down areas in BK-- specifiacally the Navy Yard/North FortG?
I’ll for sure look into it
Luck dude that area change. The investor putting money in the neighborhood
j e :your absolutely right! Fort Greene & the Navy Yard are being renovated big time. Fort Greene has already changed significantly. Investors are fighting over property they would have written off 20 years ago.
You have great videos,never been in New York looks very congested
Very nice video bro, I dont understand why you dont have more subscribers. Keep it up they will recognise.
Thanks man it’s a grind and I’m not stopping!
@@MOONEYDashCam yea bro keep it up, im from Uk. And this was a beautiful video. The more people that see it the more people will love this content.
Thanks for the tour fam💯
I grew up in Brownsville. There were some great times too! Don't forget the Brownsville Recreation Center. I always said they will never gentrify, Brownsville.
your channel is very underrated! keep up the great content
This is interesting to me because it is so different from the small town I live in.
Faithful subscriber here.. Ty for the vlogs kiddo 😎
Man people would lose their mind where I’m at if the car in front stopped in the middle of the road for someone to slowly get in.
Yeah that’s just normal everyday shit here
@@MOONEYDashCam Wouldn’t bother me so much as I would expect this to happen in a dense area. My city is the size of 5 states combined, so being so wide open, people would lose their shit.
Murder Inc in the 30s 40s 50s. Gay Lords in the early 70s(Grafton/Livonia). Drug crews in the 80s. Decepticons n Lo Life in the late 80s. Crips and Blood in the 90s. Sutter Blocc, DumonT, RIVERdale, LoTT aka ⚾️MLB Ville⚾️
It’s still the same, I’m glad I moved from over there
Me and my boss often laugh at that street van snirden. It’s the perfect block for an ambush. We call it ambush ave. See what you can find out about that block.
It looks way better than it did when I was there
I’m searching for my father in the Brownsville area he don’t know I even exist his name is Kevin he use to go by Water and hung with a guy name Gerard back in the day they close to 50 now. They use to be on Rockaway Parkway around the corner from Pitkin Avenue. If you can help in anyway let me know!
I’m sorry man I don’t know who that is. Good luck
Is his last name tomlin?
I know him
Come to my hood East New York Brooklyn the only thing that separates us from Brownsville is a bridge lol
Check out my 2nd video ever I’m in East ny the whole time
True, ocean hill, east ny and brownsville 💪
I was born and raised here. I left in my late twenties
My mom lived there till the late-60s. Saratoga and Blake I think? Pretty much became uninhabitable. They moved to a housing project in Sheepshead Bay :lol:
I live in Brownsville rn it really ain’t that bad in some parts
Yeah I work around there and never had any problems either
mixtape_events_dj Award Winner I work there everyday and I’m out with the people if you don’t act like a punk then you don’t get bothered... and who are you?
@@MOONEYDashCam sounds like an asshole to me. Ive been working on Junius st since 95. How bad the area is depends on where your standing and what time your standing there. Commercial or industrial areas during the day are fine.
pclutch yeah that’s what I’m saying
Stay in Yo Line and don’t go outside at night and you aight
BK has changed so much! its nowhere near as bad as it used to be in the 80s and 90s
Mooney Dash,I love your work Bro.If not for your work a lot of people would only know N.Y.C.By looking at the news or t.v. shows and Hollywood-
Love the commentary, total cool man, thanks 🤗
Alot of the buildings are public housing projects?
Yes the highest concentration of public housing in the United States
@@MOONEYDashCam damn that's crazy man. Heard the bronx especially south bronx is like that.
Polar Bear you’re right on that one the south Bronx is also mostly projects too
SPARK IT UP AND SMOKE THAT MARY JANE. FROM SA * TEXAS TO YOU
Omg I recognize your voice from another channel ? With mr softy truck
I’ve never been in a video with a mr softy truck
Cool vid man here out of curiosity from Tyson and John Gotti you can tell its rough!
Also reminds me of GTA 3 lol
I sent to summer day camp at the Brownsville Boys Club when I was a kid.
I just spotted a gray monte carlo
The iron triangle should be bombville lol love it tho.
Very true
Brownsville, Brooklyn
Population - 58,300 (1/4/2010)
Caucasian/European-American - 0.8%
African-American - 76.1%
Latinx-American - 20.6%
Asian-American - 0.7%
Officially 17 public housing developments/projects
Largest housing development/project, Van Dyke Houses (3,914)
Wtf is Latin x just call them latinos
2 Stooges were Howard-name changed from Hurwitz. Third Stooge was I believe a cousin Larry Fine.
I just did the cameras at that store on Livonia and rockaway yesterday.
Being scientific and analytical, I must note that Brownsville is predominantly Carribbean/Black. Any carri. Afro has comments why you are bringing your culture to America when you are supposedly runn8 g away from in your countries? (Not a racist question)
Caribbean ppl did not bring this lifestyle here! This is a systematic racism issue. This system in nyc in Brownsville especially was built this way. Do you know your history? A lot ppl from the Caribbean live here because that’s what they can afford! But ppl will do what they want from ANYWHERE! ANY RACE ANY CREED! Crime is usually done within the area you live mostly any by someone you know. AN THATS FOR ANY RACE OR PEOPLE!
RZA is pronounced rizza
Yeah I found that out afterwards 🤦♂️
Yes
Yes it is
And if you do get shot, don't go to Brookdale!
I did enjoy thanks👍
I lived right next door in east ny and that whole area is rough as fuck.
Yeah it’s real out there
YES RALPH MACHIO on the tour!! :)))
The place seems so flat. Amazing 👍
wow the closed caption works great
for the most part
I’m from east New York but I lived in Brownsville for 8 years and kind of bad but not that bad like high bridge bronx
@@martinwadia300 uhhh I lived im Brownsville for 8 years and it was decent not saying it was good and very safe but decent.... and high bridge is bad my family from high bridge so I be over there a lot and mad stuff be happening there the Bronx over all is the most dangerous borough in New York City Brooklyn falls into second place
@@martinwadia300 of that is true that’s it should be cuz brooklyn is a much bigger borough than the Bronx so it should have a higher crime rate the Bronx is very small but still a lot of crime happens there.. and I don’t have to look I be in both boroughs. Born and raised in bk but be in the Bronx alot and the entire Bronx is straight hood and ghetto whereas in Brooklyn there some decent spots
The valves are really clattering on the truck.
It was an exhaust leak
@@MOONEYDashCam - That’ll cause clatter, glad ya caught it… Cool channel BTW! Ever think of showing us some of the locations associated with the Howard Stern Show? Even a Dominic Barbara (Howie’s hotshot lawyer friend) story and a drive past one of his former Long Island mansions would deliver you a truckload of traffic to your channel…. Dominic’s fall from grace is an interesting story…
My mom was there when she met my dad and if I remember correctly she said a little girl got killed from the top roof and from at that point she made plans to move out of NY
Never ran never will. Big up
You passed right in front of my old building
Next time I’ll wave 👋
Hi Truck and Mooney !
And for the record yes I’d still move to Brownsville I’m just too uptown at this point so I’m cool on the ville but the k is lit fr
