Nope! Just got back from NYC a couple of weeks ago and felt very safe! Honestly, it was better than it has been in the past. They had a recent initiative to get the homeless off the streets and into shelters and many of them took the city up on it. It was also cleaner than it has been in a while ... even the subways. We had such a great time and are already planning our next trip back!
Depends on the area. Some parts of Brooklyn, Bronx, and Queens is pretty bad. And some parts of Manhattan. And Carmine's is a chain, next time go to Little Italy area for some Italian food.
I actually work inside One World Trade, all the way up on the 67th floor! Glad you paid your respects and went to the museum. I am actively avoiding the subway, mostly if I am alone. I got targeted, harassed, and attacked on the subway on the way to 1WTC about two months ago. Locals understand the safety situation in NYC right now and how it is NOT safe by any means. Please don’t give false impressions to others and deem it safe after two days, I am so glad your experience has been good and safe but please continue to be aware of your surroundings at all times. I’d put the expensive camera away on the subway and on the platform, that could be asking for trouble for sure, especially at night.
I love how you put this! I was thinking the same thing. I avoid the subway at all cost, I've opted to walk 30+ mins just to not take the subway and even then I'm on alert. lol
I haven’t visited since 2020, but we started avoiding subway at all costs. It will eventually happen and yes was thinking same thing about your camera on the subway. Keep your guard up and in to DC.
THIS 👏🏼👏🏼 as someone who actually lives in New York, you can’t pay me to get on a subway. I will drive everywhere. I don’t wear my engagement ring on the subway, if I have a bag it’s a small bag and I keep it in the front of me at all times. Always looking around me. Never standing near the platform, people will push you onto those tracks or slash you in the face in broad daylight. It is not safe. You can’t say it’s safe only after 2 days being here.
Brittany; lived here all my life and the subway IS SAFE. I have been on it hundreds of time BY MYSELF at all hours (2am, 3 am). Not any less safe than the subway ride in Paris and London.
@@esciteach7997 I’ve lived here all my life too, tell “the subway is safe,” to the 13 people that got shot or the people constantly getting slashed in the face. But ok 👌🏼 🙄
As someone who still lives in NYC, I am glad you had a safe trip and enjoyed it. If you lived here on a daily basis you might have a different perspective and you were just lucky to not experience anything bad. Thanks for visiting the city!!!!
Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (also simply known as Lincoln Center). It has thirty indoor and outdoor facilities and is host to 5 million visitors annually. It houses internationally renowned performing arts organizations including the New York Philharmonic, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, and the Juilliard School of Music.
I was just in New York and walked the whole city for a week and was surprised at how safe I felt. I was worried about not feeling safe but was surprised at how no one bothered me while I was walking around. And yes everyone was superrrrr nice!
Oh Kyle! Whether you are in Chicago, NYC, Boston, Atlanta, etc. you need to be careful in general! Making a video and saying it’s not dangerous is super dangerous!
First off, congratulations on 124K subscribers . Almost at a buck and a quarter. I have really enjoyed these vlogs in NYC. Manhattan is not dangerous. It is tough and you need to be careful like anyplace. I love NYC, maybe more than Disney because I grew up here and there is a wealth of history there. I hope you do comeback to NYC. You just touched the surface. You need to see Long Island and the Bronx. ( Bronx Zoo) Enjoy your trip to DC. I have not been there in years. Safe travels. Enjoy your day/ evening. Looking forward to your next vlog.
The safety aspect would certainly worry me these days. Stick to the tourist stuff, try not to look like a tourist, and get back in before it's too late. Personally I'd avoid the subways completely.
Kyle, one thing about my home 🏡 state of New York is, the cold weather. Even in Spring. If you expect the cold weather everyday, you’ll be fine. Also, it was very windy yesterday. Enjoy the rest of your stay! 🗽
the fact that i’m in the city most of the week, i’m in penn station for each of those days, i take the A or C train to 59th street, and I DIDNT SEE KYLE AT ALL!!!💔 He literally did my exact route to school and i missed him
It’s always when you don’t expect danger or any kind of an unwanted injury that’s when it happens so you have to keep that in mind too just stay safe watch your back.
Glad you had a good time, Kyle. For a city of its size and population, New York City really isn't any more dangerous than other major cities with questionable areas to avoid. You have to assess your surroundings and make smart decisions. Walking through a dark alleyway at night alone or even with another person isn't a smart idea no matter what place you visit. You place yourself in a position to be potentially mugged. Homeless people on trains have freaked some people out by being approached or with some weird behaviors they engage in. Look ahead, mind your business, and you should be fine. Comfort levels vary, so I know it's easier said than done for some people. I'm from Louisiana and interned out there for months and had no issues. Lived in East Harlem (El Barrio); ventured through every borough, day and night, alone and with a group, I was fine. You just learn what neighborhoods to avoid like any city in the world, and you should be fine. And FYI, gas prices in Manhattan really don't matter unless you are in the transportation industry since most of the residents have a metro card where they take the bus or train to get around. A car would be an unnecessary expense unless you live deep in Brooklyn and Queens or maybe further uptown.
You're in the touristy areas. The crime has spiked 43% in the last year(ish). When I lived in NYC (Grammercy Park area) in the early 2000s, it was a much different, and safer, city.
lol just not true--look at all statistics, crime is down precipitously since the 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s. while it might have increased the last 2 years with COVID, that's still just relative to 2018/2019 when it was at all-time lows. NYC consistenly ranks among the safest big cities in the western world.
Chicago isn’t scary, you just have to know where to go. When you’re from a small area like Orlando, it’s going to feel extremely different. New York City and Chicago both have crime, you just have to be street smart. Next time, check out Queens and the Bronx.
I used to live in NYC. 1994-1999. Before Highline Park and when the city was still gritty. I loved it. I like the idea of living there more than actually living there. And, now it's way too expensive and all the grittiness is gone. 2 things I miss the most: Zabars and bagels. I'm glad you're enjoying it. As far as bikes: Most people who live in the city don't have a car. Cars are for rich people and those from outside the city who commute in.
One of the biggest challenges of my visit to NYC years ago was finding a toilet to use. There are many places that there are no public facilities, and if there are any, then they are locked, dirty, or unsafe.
also the dangerous thing: you are in some really touristy areas to be fair. New York is pretty dangerous right now, it’s good you’re traveling in a group because if not it would’ve been much more risky for you. Either way, the touristy areas are fairly safe for the most part!
a lot of people are avoiding the subway also to answer your question. Subway crime has been skyrocketing: shootings are up, slashings are up, and people getting pushed onto the tracks are up as well
Perspective is important. It's more dangerous than the past few years. But nothing compared to pre-90s New York. Crime is up compared to all-time lows.
So glad that you all got to walk on the High Line!! It’s so amazing. I grew up in New Jersey (about 45 minutes from NYC) and we went there a lot. Looks like the three of you are having a great time!
So glad you are having such an amazing time with Taylor and Alexa! These are lifetime core memories that will stay with you forever! As long as you don't make yourself an easy target in NYC - it''s safe - just like anywhere else. We were there in Nov to see the Rockettes - when the show was over at night the police presence was impressive. I had friends telling me while I was there it wasn't safe - I said - I'm here now - I'm telling you - we feel fine - they still wanted to argue LOL When I moved to upstate from OH - my friends said Don't get Mugged! LOL - Wendy Lady
From an NYPD wife, believe me when I tell you it’s not safe lol. Being here for 2 hours seeing the rockettes isn’t very telling. Did you not hear about the 13 people shot in the subway the other day?
New yorker here! I always have some sense of anxiety walking around especially alone because you just never know what you're gonna come across. I've had plenty of different types of interactions. It's still a great city but you just have to be alert!
Carmines has an amazing lunch menu between Noon and 2pmEST. Steve Corbert Show tapes weekdays and uses the Ed Sullivan Theater where David Letterman previous had his Late Show, late night comedy. That’s also in the Broadway theater districts. Kyle, Harlem parts are in the ghetto. Subways in NYC get flooded when it rains hard .
I love your video's and I love your journey around NYC. I live in western upstate NY and I have never been to NYC like you are doing on your feet, biking. In NYC I have connected at Penn Station, docked out of the cruise terminal, Been to the NYC airports, Took a bus through time square, and sailed under the Verrazzano-Narrows bridge while seeing the statue of liberty. I look forward to your DC videos
I’m loving these NYC vlogs!! Taylor seems super sweet I’m so glad she was able to me up with you & Alexa. Can’t wait for the DC vlogs I live an hour from DC so it’ll be cool to see the city from your perspective! Safe travels ✈️
New York never seemed dangerous to me during the day, it was later at night as I was rushing back to my hotel through dark streets. But something I found interesting is that Kyle did not say anything after leaving the 911 Museum. I'm wondering what his thoughts were. He of course was very young when all of this happened. Those of us who were older when it occurred remember it all too well.
As a "9/11 Survivor", I can relate. Haven't been to NYC since then. I call myself a 9/11 Survivor because I was *supposed* to be there (Tower 2, 76th floor) on 9/11 and canceled my appointment the day before! As far as NYC being dangerous, it's fine during the day in certain areas (touristy areas have more NYPD on patrol) but don't go anywhere alone at night.
I was born and raised in NYC. I feel that it is not more or less dangerous than anywhere else. Just be careful but enjoy your time. Make sure you ride the Staten Island Ferry. Get very great views of the statue 🗽 of liberty as well as Ellis Island.
Hi! I just found your channel bc of the Disney vlogs, but am a native NYer. I moved to North Carolina last summer and miss NYC so much!!! Your video just reminded me of all the stuff ahhhhh. Especially the food of course. I can't find decent bagels or deli here! Hahaha thanks for the video! Def hit up the city for more time when you visit again. 🎉🗽🇺🇸
I also feel like you're in some of THE MOST gentrified areas of the city. Manhattan is designed to work that way, which is fine if you go more towards prospect, the heights it'll be COMPLETELY different. Melrose can be rough too. BUT honestly everywhere in every city has rough parts. San Francisco has been rough too. I have had my stuff swiped multiple times here. I think its just using common sense like you all have been doing. This NY adventure was alot of fun to watch. definitely go back soon.
We went to New York City during Christmas time four years ago. It was absolutely stunning. I’m not sure I can live there but I can certainly travel there on a yearly basis. I’m glad you guys had a great time, look forward to seeing more in New York and travel videos.
As a nyc native I haven’t been on the train since 2020. If I need to go into the city I’ll take the express bus. I’m glad you had a great time. Just like in any city, you have to be extra vigilant. Enjoy!
I approach NYC like any city - you need to know your surroundings & stay alert. Lincoln center is famous for the Arts (opera & stuff) 😂 I've only really been to NYC for business. My friend was Knighted at St. Pat's Cathedral (yes that kind of Knight) & we briefly walked around but I need to go there specifically to do touristy things. Glad you had a nice time 👍
When you're from St. Louis, every city seems safer haha. But, to be honest, I've never felt unsafe in St. Louis. You just have to know which places are safer than others. I'm assuming it's like that in every big city.
NYC resident: You have people here that feel both. There have been a number of incidents in the last few years that have put people on edge in the subways, but I still ride it regularly and it doesn’t feel all that different. I am more aware of my surroundings though - I use to take naps or use noise cancellation AirPods but not anymore. Also, I work right next to that Ample Hills! So sad I missed you!
Next time you come to NYC you have to visit the intrepid Musuem and Take a ride on the Staten Island ferry which is free you will get a very good view of Statute of Liberty (great photos) and once you arrive at Staten Island (my Hometown) you will see beautiful views of the city. As far as the Subway is concerned, I try to avoid it as much as possible I feel safer on A bus and if I can walk to my destination I will. NYC is an amazing place to visit but you also have to be aware of your surroundings
So funny you went to Paris Baguette. It's actually a bakery from Korea. I always went for breakfast or a nice coffee or iced tea at Paris Baguette in Seoul, South Korea. All their food is just so good and fine quality. Thanks for a small memory for me to my times in Seoul even though you're in New York 😂 Hope to meet you at the parks in July, since I'm coming back to Orlando. Love from the Netherlands ❤️
Yes!!! I was gonna say the sane thing! My sons are adopted from Korea and Paris baguette was our breakfast every morning when we were in Seoul. Soooo good!!! I saw they’re opening one near me soon, super excited!!
I haven't had any bad experiences on the subways since I moved here a year ago (fingers crossed lol), although whenever I'm on the train it's always filled with people, which does make it safer. Plus I and most of the people commuting to and from work don't really have any other (affordable) option.
Loved watching your visit to NYC!! It's funny how you visited my city and soon in a few weeks I'll be traveling to Wisconsin for the first time! Love your channel and videos. Big fan of Disney as well as WDW! Also ps. Im glad your first broadway show was Wicked despite the fact you didn't enjoy the musical theatre vibe 😝
Saw “My Fair Lady” at the glorious Lincoln Center back in Aug 2018 and stayed at the Empire Hotel across the street. Also saw “Hello, Dolly!” with Bette Midler at the Shubert Theatre that same trip. Great times! I love the fact that you can pop into just about any little restaurant in NYC and have great food. Luke’s Lobster is worth a stop, and The Donut Pub (W. 14th St. and 7th Ave) is a must go-to on every one of my trips. Will have to try and venture over to the Brooklyn spots in your video. And of all the times I’ve been to New York sightseeing, and riding the subway, I’ve never felt that it was dangerous. Have a great rest of your trip!
The food is so good! There's a reason why I don't trust Italian food in Florida...haha!!! Also, Lincoln Center is a performing arts center! The theater is used for ballets, operas, orchestras...that sort of thing!! There are a few different performing arts schools, film center, ballet companies...a bunch of fun stuff!!
if you go back to nyc please wear a mask on the train and in stores. the vast majority of locals still do and it’s considered rude not to. it’s still required on the subway even if it’s not enforced.
Honestly, you guys handled yourselves just fine. There has been a few incidents on the subways . That’s why I said ,don’t stand near the edge. My husband takes the train everyday. Doesn’t like it to much. Other then that your fine. Hope you had a great time. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Your vlogs are enjoyable to watch!
As a person who moved from my moms house 10 years from Corona, Queens to East Orlando. It’s basically time and place. I worked driving those double decker buses you seen around you all the time lol. I will tell you, taking the train home at 2am from time square. Grabbing the E train to Jamaica center. It was sure dangerous. I got robbed of all my tips one night. But till this day I’m like you, I never feel scare during the daytime on the subway or anywhere around town. And yes, after 9/11 the certain area of the city go to sleep early. Lol a lot of places aren’t open pass 10pm or 24hrs like before.
Grew up and lived in NYC all my life. Never had a problem with safety ever, including on subway at all hours (2am, 3am by myself). Just use common sense and STARE at everyone; MAKE EYE CONTACT and people don't bother you. At 2am I stand near any other people I can find on a subway platform and start talking so they know I am "OK" "so where are you from?" and "yeah, just got out of work myself" The one time I was worried was 7am (on a Sunday) on a subway platform in Paris; I found out later there had just been a "mugging" on same spot minutes before.
Hi Kyle was there in February and found the subway ok as long as you follow the rules. Look confident at all times, don't act like a tourist IE don't get a map out or have expensive cameras or jewellery. Avoid empty carriages (they are empty for a reason) be careful late at night, especially women sadly, and finally don't go too far away from the usual tourist or busy places. Oh if someone asked for some change never ever give them any it encourages them and probably goes on alcohol. Loving these videos looking forward to DC
I guarantee every comment talking about the danger of NYC is from someone who doesn't live here, and is glued to the news. I live in Flatbush Brooklyn and there have been some more anti social behavior noticed since the pandemic, but it absolutely does not feel any less safe. If you're in Manhattan you are very rarely going to have any problems whatsoever, worst thing will be someone yelling offenses at you, in which case just head down walk away. Also wanted to note: love your vids Kyle! Been great to cure the boredom during the pandemic and some!
I have lived in NY most of my life and the subways are very dangerous right now. You are lucky nothing happened to you. The buses are safer. Lincoln center is where the famous Metropolitan Opera House and the NYC Ballet is located. If you come back to NY you might enjoy eating at at the Old Town Bar 45 E 18th st. It was in an episode of Blue Bloods. Also the famous diner from the Seinfeld Show is at Columbia University at broadway. Tom's Restaurant. The #4 bus stops right in front of it. China town is fun. I agree with others that The Music Man would be a better choice.
The thing about NYC is you just need to be aware of your surroundings. The crime rate is statistically lower than many cities including Orlando (I’m from there and I feel way safer walking around NYC). It’s more of a perception of feeling safe because in most places you’re in your car and not interacting with people. Just don’t be a dumb tourist and get conned.
Thank you for visiting 9/11,I almost was one as well, because of my plans being changed I wasn't on the first flight 9/11 had I been I wouldn't be here, Thank you for sharing this and we Nyers are always welcoming
welcome to my city. I love watching you enjoy this experience. so glad to see you enjoying my hometown. You really should hit up Brooklyn. some of the best spots are there!!!!
I used to work at Lincoln Center! It is one of the largest performing arts centers including The Metropolitan Opera, NY Philharmonic, NYC Ballet, Juilliard, etc!
I was raised through elementary school in NYC. You have to realize your in a city of 8 to 9 million residents which consist of 5 boroughs. Chances are your not going to be experience crime in a city that large however it is a fact that crime is up and I last heard by 43% according to a national news station. So even though crime is elevated you might not notice it in a city so dense and expansive. Another thought midtown Manhattan is not a crime ridden area either just saying. Glad you enjoyed your trip.
Been to NYC a few times and had a blast...was in DC in December for my daughter's bday and it was awesome!!! Founding Farmers was a great place to eat...enjoy brother!
Yes go more often for like a month. I’ve always wanted to go to nyc and am actually reading books on visiting it and your videos are giving great insight! Go again!
Thank you Kyle for stating there's a misconception about NY. It's a great city and we have great people here and our food is fantastic. So glad you came for yourself so you could make your own judgements. You literally visited all the lit spots. And most of the people telling you it's dangerous are most likely not Natives. Wasn't born here just live here.
Dangerous? You should've been there in the 1970s. Yikes! Pimps, hookers, junkies, criminals all over. Tourists avoided 42nd St & Times Square. Very few areas people felt safe in. The city was very dangerous, dirty, & bankrupt, etc. All the cool hip areas you see now were either rotting dumps or war zones.
Your view on NYC is correct. If you want to find bad stuff. Homeless, mentally ill etc. They're plentiful. You'll find em. Especially around Penn and by 7th and 8th Ave. Be cautious and you'll be totally fine. Dont listen to the drama queens. NYC is the best! Glad you guys enjoyed...def stay longer your next trip.
My personal opinion on the “is NYC dangerous” topic. I’m not saying it isn’t, because that’s not necessarily true, but I do think people’s fears of the city are inflated after the events of 2020. I don’t live in NYC but do visit multiple times per year and the only times I’ve ever felt unsafe are walking around and on the subway late, late at night (like after midnight late). But even then those are few and isolated incidents. Use your common sense, keep to yourself and you’ll most likely be okay.
I’m not seeing New York’s dangerous it’s great for tourist you just have to watch yourself but there’s so much to do and you just scraped the surface you didn’t go to any museums and there’s a lot of them so there’s a lot more for you to do in New York and you did see a Broadway play you should Stay a week you always bring a smile to my face good job Kyle it’s great to see your friend Taylor and your sister Alexa I live an hour and a half from New York City so yes I’ve been there.
Considering that this guy lives at least half his life in a fake fantasy world (theme parks, cruises, etc.), I appreciate his open mind about the realities of a legitimate massive city.
We are an hour outside the city and my husband works there and my son is going to grad school there in the Fall. We come in a lot. It is markedly different than a few years ago. Glad you had a positive experience though!
So excited for you to come to DC! Even though I grew up around there, I think DC has such a unique feel as a city. It also has a metro, so more underground trains for you to ride haha (also some of the stations are so cool looking in my opinion)
Hi Kyle, a couple of my relatives came to visit me last week and I was showing them the exact areas you're visiting. We even went to the magic hour rooftop bar. I'm glad you're having fun! I hope to see you at MNSSHP WDW this fall! 🙂
The Lincoln Center houses The Metropolitan Opera in the center, The New York City Ballet on the left, and the New York Philharmonic on the right. Juilliard School of Music is behing the Philharmonic building on the right side.
If you’re still there try to catch the subway to Brooklyn and walk the Brooklyn Bridge. Very nearby in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Dumbo there is a touristy area with super scenic iconic shots.
Please. Anyplace can be dangerous. Just be mindful of your surroundings. Have a great time and don't limit yourself to Manhattan. There are 4 other boroughs that are great as well and many things to do.
To be fair I’ve never thought of NY as unsafe ! We always felt safe and really explored , we didn’t however feel safe in LA until our third visit ! ( we arrived very late after driving down from SF and picked a dodgy motel, the room next door was raided by lapd at 0200, our first visit )
Here’s the thing: “dangerous” is subjective. I felt pretty safe when I visited NYC a few times about a decade ago. However my travel companion and I had to practice common sense at night. When you come to SF, the same will apply. The 9/11 memorial is a powerful place. I think that place is just famous for being an amazing place to take pics. Has been famous for a long time for that. Lincoln Center is a prominent performing arts venue.
I lived in Brooklyn, the place you get Ice cream used to be the original place of Brooklyn bridge ice cream place … and the tacos place they amazing across from there they have great cookies place too …u should get ur pizza by Brooklyn bridge is way better than joe pizza ….
DUMBO is an a acronym for down under the Manhattan bridge overpass …. SOHO is south of Houston tribeca is triangle mellow canal … and yes gun violence and subway crime is up n the past year just stay safe and know your surroundings
I’m from DC Kyle! I can’t wait to see your dc vlog. You have to visit the smithsonian museums, they’re all free and I have the luxury of working at all of them 😄 If you want a ticket for the African American history museum, you have to go early in the morning to get a same day ticket👍🏾
The media is blowing everything out of proportion. NY is alive and well and safe enough to visit. Also, funny because I was just at the Paris Baguette place to grab a bite after a meeting last week...haha
New York City is just about as dangerous as any other major city. Even smaller cities can be very dangerous. It depends upon the moment. I heard of one RUclips influencer who had moved to Florida because he thought NYC had become too dangerous. Yet, people reminded him that even Florida and many other places throughout the world have been getting more dangerous, due to the economic effects of the global pandemics. Welcome to post-2020.
I was born and raised in NY but I live in Florida and I'm terrified of going back to visit especially the thought of taking the train. Definitely great for shopping and the food is awesome but I always try to explore other vacation options.
An ordinary tourist doing ordinary things is perfectly safe in New York City today - it's only those who look for iffy things that can get into trouble. And Lincoln Center is the cultural hub of the city with The Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, and other earthshaking cultural things.
Looks like a fun visit. You definitely need to stay for at least a week next time so that you can explore places that are off the beaten path. Regarding the subways, we're not using them because we are still able to work remotely and it can still be dodgy down there, especially at night. Have a great time in DC. Keeping my fingers crossed that you got to take the Acela down to Washington.
Juliard school was at the Lincoln center where u guys were at. Robin Williams and Viola Davis went there. That is a great performing arts school. They tape alot of movies out there too.
Is it just me or are our opinions right about it being dangerous l..? Also NYC to DC today!
Nope! Just got back from NYC a couple of weeks ago and felt very safe! Honestly, it was better than it has been in the past. They had a recent initiative to get the homeless off the streets and into shelters and many of them took the city up on it. It was also cleaner than it has been in a while ... even the subways. We had such a great time and are already planning our next trip back!
I don’t think so
Be careful just in case…. 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I know someone whose friend in NYC said one time "it's not that bad, I only got robbed on the subway twice this month" 👀 um excuse me.....ONLY? 😂
Depends on the area. Some parts of Brooklyn, Bronx, and Queens is pretty bad. And some parts of Manhattan. And Carmine's is a chain, next time go to Little Italy area for some Italian food.
I actually work inside One World Trade, all the way up on the 67th floor! Glad you paid your respects and went to the museum. I am actively avoiding the subway, mostly if I am alone. I got targeted, harassed, and attacked on the subway on the way to 1WTC about two months ago. Locals understand the safety situation in NYC right now and how it is NOT safe by any means. Please don’t give false impressions to others and deem it safe after two days, I am so glad your experience has been good and safe but please continue to be aware of your surroundings at all times. I’d put the expensive camera away on the subway and on the platform, that could be asking for trouble for sure, especially at night.
I love how you put this! I was thinking the same thing. I avoid the subway at all cost, I've opted to walk 30+ mins just to not take the subway and even then I'm on alert. lol
I haven’t visited since 2020, but we started avoiding subway at all costs. It will eventually happen and yes was thinking same thing about your camera on the subway. Keep your guard up and in to DC.
THIS 👏🏼👏🏼 as someone who actually lives in New York, you can’t pay me to get on a subway. I will drive everywhere. I don’t wear my engagement ring on the subway, if I have a bag it’s a small bag and I keep it in the front of me at all times. Always looking around me. Never standing near the platform, people will push you onto those tracks or slash you in the face in broad daylight. It is not safe. You can’t say it’s safe only after 2 days being here.
Brittany; lived here all my life and the subway IS SAFE. I have been on it hundreds of time BY MYSELF at all hours (2am, 3 am). Not any less safe than the subway ride in Paris and London.
@@esciteach7997 I’ve lived here all my life too, tell “the subway is safe,” to the 13 people that got shot or the people constantly getting slashed in the face. But ok 👌🏼 🙄
As someone who still lives in NYC, I am glad you had a safe trip and enjoyed it. If you lived here on a daily basis you might have a different perspective and you were just lucky to not experience anything bad. Thanks for visiting the city!!!!
I live here
I used to live in NY. Try Harlem, see how feel🤭
@@dandavid1351 I know lol......my grandmother was in a temporary nursing home in Harlem during Covid and I felt out of place
Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts (also simply known as Lincoln Center). It has thirty indoor and outdoor facilities and is host to 5 million visitors annually. It houses internationally renowned performing arts organizations including the New York Philharmonic, the Metropolitan Opera, the New York City Ballet, and the Juilliard School of Music.
I was just in New York and walked the whole city for a week and was surprised at how safe I felt. I was worried about not feeling safe but was surprised at how no one bothered me while I was walking around. And yes everyone was superrrrr nice!
Oh Kyle! Whether you are in Chicago, NYC, Boston, Atlanta, etc. you need to be careful in general! Making a video and saying it’s not dangerous is super dangerous!
Thank you smdh
Any major city for sure you have to be careful
He is in Orlando every day and y'all don't expect him to talk about that FAR more violent and dangerous city
First off, congratulations on 124K subscribers . Almost at a buck and a quarter. I have really enjoyed these vlogs in NYC. Manhattan is not dangerous. It is tough and you need to be careful like anyplace. I love NYC, maybe more than Disney because I grew up here and there is a wealth of history there. I hope you do comeback to NYC. You just touched the surface. You need to see Long Island and the Bronx. ( Bronx Zoo) Enjoy your trip to DC. I have not been there in years. Safe travels. Enjoy your day/ evening. Looking forward to your next vlog.
The safety aspect would certainly worry me these days. Stick to the tourist stuff, try not to look like a tourist, and get back in before it's too late. Personally I'd avoid the subways completely.
Kyle, one thing about my home 🏡 state of New York is, the cold weather. Even in Spring. If you expect the cold weather everyday, you’ll be fine. Also, it was very windy yesterday. Enjoy the rest of your stay! 🗽
the fact that i’m in the city most of the week, i’m in penn station for each of those days, i take the A or C train to 59th street, and I DIDNT SEE KYLE AT ALL!!!💔 He literally did my exact route to school and i missed him
It’s always when you don’t expect danger or any kind of an unwanted injury that’s when it happens so you have to keep that in mind too just stay safe watch your back.
Glad you had a good time, Kyle. For a city of its size and population, New York City really isn't any more dangerous than other major cities with questionable areas to avoid. You have to assess your surroundings and make smart decisions. Walking through a dark alleyway at night alone or even with another person isn't a smart idea no matter what place you visit. You place yourself in a position to be potentially mugged. Homeless people on trains have freaked some people out by being approached or with some weird behaviors they engage in. Look ahead, mind your business, and you should be fine. Comfort levels vary, so I know it's easier said than done for some people. I'm from Louisiana and interned out there for months and had no issues. Lived in East Harlem (El Barrio); ventured through every borough, day and night, alone and with a group, I was fine. You just learn what neighborhoods to avoid like any city in the world, and you should be fine. And FYI, gas prices in Manhattan really don't matter unless you are in the transportation industry since most of the residents have a metro card where they take the bus or train to get around. A car would be an unnecessary expense unless you live deep in Brooklyn and Queens or maybe further uptown.
You're in the touristy areas. The crime has spiked 43% in the last year(ish). When I lived in NYC (Grammercy Park area) in the early 2000s, it was a much different, and safer, city.
It’s a shame. We used to have an apartment in Greenwich village. It was so safe many years ago.
I feel that I guess I am just talking about these areas the tourists go
lol just not true--look at all statistics, crime is down precipitously since the 70s, 80s, 90s, 2000s. while it might have increased the last 2 years with COVID, that's still just relative to 2018/2019 when it was at all-time lows. NYC consistenly ranks among the safest big cities in the western world.
@@orangeandblue75 LMAO what????? What imaginary publication is that statistic coming from? Because the NYPD can tell you otherwise
@@ashleyeverafter2827 do your research
Chicago isn’t scary, you just have to know where to go. When you’re from a small area like Orlando, it’s going to feel extremely different. New York City and Chicago both have crime, you just have to be street smart. Next time, check out Queens and the Bronx.
I used to live in NYC. 1994-1999. Before Highline Park and when the city was still gritty. I loved it.
I like the idea of living there more than actually living there. And, now it's way too expensive and all the grittiness is gone. 2 things I miss the most: Zabars and bagels.
I'm glad you're enjoying it. As far as bikes: Most people who live in the city don't have a car. Cars are for rich people and those from outside the city who commute in.
One of the biggest challenges of my visit to NYC years ago was finding a toilet to use. There are many places that there are no public facilities, and if there are any, then they are locked, dirty, or unsafe.
also the dangerous thing: you are in some really touristy areas to be fair. New York is pretty dangerous right now, it’s good you’re traveling in a group because if not it would’ve been much more risky for you. Either way, the touristy areas are fairly safe for the most part!
a lot of people are avoiding the subway also to answer your question. Subway crime has been skyrocketing: shootings are up, slashings are up, and people getting pushed onto the tracks are up as well
Perspective is important. It's more dangerous than the past few years. But nothing compared to pre-90s New York. Crime is up compared to all-time lows.
I feel that
So glad that you all got to walk on the High Line!! It’s so amazing. I grew up in New Jersey (about 45 minutes from NYC) and we went there a lot. Looks like the three of you are having a great time!
So glad you are having such an amazing time with Taylor and Alexa! These are lifetime core memories that will stay with you forever! As long as you don't make yourself an easy target in NYC - it''s safe - just like anywhere else. We were there in Nov to see the Rockettes - when the show was over at night the police presence was impressive. I had friends telling me while I was there it wasn't safe - I said - I'm here now - I'm telling you - we feel fine - they still wanted to argue LOL When I moved to upstate from OH - my friends said Don't get Mugged! LOL - Wendy Lady
From an NYPD wife, believe me when I tell you it’s not safe lol. Being here for 2 hours seeing the rockettes isn’t very telling. Did you not hear about the 13 people shot in the subway the other day?
New yorker here! I always have some sense of anxiety walking around especially alone because you just never know what you're gonna come across. I've had plenty of different types of interactions. It's still a great city but you just have to be alert!
My mom and I used to live in NY. She worked on the 44th floor in the Empire State Building. Glad you’re all having a great time! Stay safe!
Carmines has an amazing lunch menu between Noon and 2pmEST. Steve Corbert Show tapes weekdays and uses the Ed Sullivan Theater where David Letterman previous had his Late Show, late night comedy. That’s also in the Broadway theater districts. Kyle, Harlem parts are in the ghetto. Subways in NYC get flooded when it rains hard .
I love your video's and I love your journey around NYC. I live in western upstate NY and I have never been to NYC like you are doing on your feet, biking. In NYC I have connected at Penn Station, docked out of the cruise terminal, Been to the NYC airports, Took a bus through time square, and sailed under the Verrazzano-Narrows bridge while seeing the statue of liberty. I look forward to your DC videos
Watching Kyle, Alexa and Taylor!!!!!!!!....Wow ....what a three some!!!!...Lv u all
I love how you pop the camera down to film walk ups etc….I was just imagining someone grabbing it and running! 😗
I’m loving these NYC vlogs!! Taylor seems super sweet I’m so glad she was able to me up with you & Alexa. Can’t wait for the DC vlogs I live an hour from DC so it’ll be cool to see the city from your perspective! Safe travels ✈️
New York never seemed dangerous to me during the day, it was later at night as I was rushing back to my hotel through dark streets. But something I found interesting is that Kyle did not say anything after leaving the 911 Museum. I'm wondering what his thoughts were. He of course was very young when all of this happened. Those of us who were older when it occurred remember it all too well.
As a "9/11 Survivor", I can relate. Haven't been to NYC since then. I call myself a 9/11 Survivor because I was *supposed* to be there (Tower 2, 76th floor) on 9/11 and canceled my appointment the day before! As far as NYC being dangerous, it's fine during the day in certain areas (touristy areas have more NYPD on patrol) but don't go anywhere alone at night.
You should’ve walked across the Brooklyn Bridge back to Manhattan which is such a historic and famous NY walk. I did it once and it was awesome.
I was born and raised in NYC. I feel that it is not more or less dangerous than anywhere else. Just be careful but enjoy your time. Make sure you ride the Staten Island Ferry. Get very great views of the statue 🗽 of liberty as well as Ellis Island.
Hi! I just found your channel bc of the Disney vlogs, but am a native NYer. I moved to North Carolina last summer and miss NYC so much!!! Your video just reminded me of all the stuff ahhhhh. Especially the food of course. I can't find decent bagels or deli here! Hahaha thanks for the video! Def hit up the city for more time when you visit again. 🎉🗽🇺🇸
I also feel like you're in some of THE MOST gentrified areas of the city. Manhattan is designed to work that way, which is fine if you go more towards prospect, the heights it'll be COMPLETELY different. Melrose can be rough too. BUT honestly everywhere in every city has rough parts. San Francisco has been rough too. I have had my stuff swiped multiple times here. I think its just using common sense like you all have been doing. This NY adventure was alot of fun to watch. definitely go back soon.
We went to New York City during Christmas time four years ago. It was absolutely stunning. I’m not sure I can live there but I can certainly travel there on a yearly basis. I’m glad you guys had a great time, look forward to seeing more in New York and travel videos.
As a nyc native I haven’t been on the train since 2020. If I need to go into the city I’ll take the express bus. I’m glad you had a great time. Just like in any city, you have to be extra vigilant. Enjoy!
Congrats on 124K, the NYC vlogs have been awesome! Now I have a few new spots to check out next time I travel there too. Looking forward to DC!
I approach NYC like any city - you need to know your surroundings & stay alert. Lincoln center is famous for the Arts (opera & stuff) 😂 I've only really been to NYC for business. My friend was Knighted at St. Pat's Cathedral (yes that kind of Knight) & we briefly walked around but I need to go there specifically to do touristy things. Glad you had a nice time 👍
When you're from St. Louis, every city seems safer haha. But, to be honest, I've never felt unsafe in St. Louis. You just have to know which places are safer than others. I'm assuming it's like that in every big city.
NYC resident: You have people here that feel both. There have been a number of incidents in the last few years that have put people on edge in the subways, but I still ride it regularly and it doesn’t feel all that different. I am more aware of my surroundings though - I use to take naps or use noise cancellation AirPods but not anymore. Also, I work right next to that Ample Hills! So sad I missed you!
Next time you come to NYC you have to visit the intrepid Musuem and Take a ride on the Staten Island ferry which is free you will get a very good view of Statute of Liberty (great photos) and once you arrive at Staten Island (my Hometown) you will see beautiful views of the city. As far as the Subway is concerned, I try to avoid it as much as possible I feel safer on A bus and if I can walk to my destination I will. NYC is an amazing place to visit but you also have to be aware of your surroundings
So funny you went to Paris Baguette. It's actually a bakery from Korea. I always went for breakfast or a nice coffee or iced tea at Paris Baguette in Seoul, South Korea. All their food is just so good and fine quality. Thanks for a small memory for me to my times in Seoul even though you're in New York 😂 Hope to meet you at the parks in July, since I'm coming back to Orlando. Love from the Netherlands ❤️
Yes!!! I was gonna say the sane thing! My sons are adopted from Korea and Paris baguette was our breakfast every morning when we were in Seoul. Soooo good!!! I saw they’re opening one near me soon, super excited!!
I haven't had any bad experiences on the subways since I moved here a year ago (fingers crossed lol), although whenever I'm on the train it's always filled with people, which does make it safer. Plus I and most of the people commuting to and from work don't really have any other (affordable) option.
Loved watching your visit to NYC!! It's funny how you visited my city and soon in a few weeks I'll be traveling to Wisconsin for the first time! Love your channel and videos. Big fan of Disney as well as WDW! Also ps. Im glad your first broadway show was Wicked despite the fact you didn't enjoy the musical theatre vibe 😝
Saw “My Fair Lady” at the glorious Lincoln Center back in Aug 2018 and stayed at the Empire Hotel across the street. Also saw “Hello, Dolly!” with Bette Midler at the Shubert Theatre that same trip. Great times! I love the fact that you can pop into just about any little restaurant in NYC and have great food. Luke’s Lobster is worth a stop, and The Donut Pub (W. 14th St. and 7th Ave) is a must go-to on every one of my trips. Will have to try and venture over to the Brooklyn spots in your video. And of all the times I’ve been to New York sightseeing, and riding the subway, I’ve never felt that it was dangerous. Have a great rest of your trip!
The Lincoln Center is where the Opera and the Ballet perform.
The food is so good! There's a reason why I don't trust Italian food in Florida...haha!!!
Also, Lincoln Center is a performing arts center! The theater is used for ballets, operas, orchestras...that sort of thing!! There are a few different performing arts schools, film center, ballet companies...a bunch of fun stuff!!
i got to see the nutcracker in the lincoln center! so awesome
if you go back to nyc please wear a mask on the train and in stores. the vast majority of locals still do and it’s considered rude not to. it’s still required on the subway even if it’s not enforced.
Honestly, you guys handled yourselves just fine. There has been a few incidents on the subways . That’s why I said ,don’t stand near the edge. My husband takes the train everyday. Doesn’t like it to much. Other then that your fine. Hope you had a great time. Enjoy the rest of your trip. Your vlogs are enjoyable to watch!
Exactly. Common sense and staying aware of your surroundings goes a long way in any major city around the world.
I live a few stops from the recent subway shooting in Brooklyn so that was a little too close to home but you do have to be alert at all times!
You have been in the nicer parts of NYC. I can't wait for your opinions of public trains in Japan. Their stations are like malls!!!!!
I think these NYC blogs were your BEST EVER!!
The subway is usually safer during off peak hours, during rush hour is when the crazies also seem to come out.
YAY! You walked the high line!! I love seeing your first reaction to NYC!
As a person who moved from my moms house 10 years from Corona, Queens to East Orlando. It’s basically time and place. I worked driving those double decker buses you seen around you all the time lol. I will tell you, taking the train home at 2am from time square. Grabbing the E train to Jamaica center. It was sure dangerous. I got robbed of all my tips one night. But till this day I’m like you, I never feel scare during the daytime on the subway or anywhere around town. And yes, after 9/11 the certain area of the city go to sleep early. Lol a lot of places aren’t open pass 10pm or 24hrs like before.
I've never felt too worried about being there (danger/safety) and I've been there by myself. You'll be fine. 😊
Grew up and lived in NYC all my life. Never had a problem with safety ever, including on subway at all hours (2am, 3am by myself). Just use common sense and STARE at everyone; MAKE EYE CONTACT and people don't bother you. At 2am I stand near any other people I can find on a subway platform and start talking so they know I am "OK" "so where are you from?" and "yeah, just got out of work myself" The one time I was worried was 7am (on a Sunday) on a subway platform in Paris; I found out later there had just been a "mugging" on same spot minutes before.
Hi Kyle was there in February and found the subway ok as long as you follow the rules. Look confident at all times, don't act like a tourist IE don't get a map out or have expensive cameras or jewellery. Avoid empty carriages (they are empty for a reason) be careful late at night, especially women sadly, and finally don't go too far away from the usual tourist or busy places. Oh if someone asked for some change never ever give them any it encourages them and probably goes on alcohol.
Loving these videos looking forward to DC
I guarantee every comment talking about the danger of NYC is from someone who doesn't live here, and is glued to the news. I live in Flatbush Brooklyn and there have been some more anti social behavior noticed since the pandemic, but it absolutely does not feel any less safe.
If you're in Manhattan you are very rarely going to have any problems whatsoever, worst thing will be someone yelling offenses at you, in which case just head down walk away.
Also wanted to note: love your vids Kyle! Been great to cure the boredom during the pandemic and some!
I have lived in NY most of my life and the subways are very dangerous right now. You are lucky nothing happened to you. The buses are safer. Lincoln center is where the famous Metropolitan Opera House and the NYC Ballet is located. If you come back to NY you might enjoy eating at at the Old Town Bar 45 E 18th st. It was in an episode of Blue Bloods. Also the famous diner from the Seinfeld Show is at Columbia University at broadway. Tom's Restaurant. The #4 bus stops right in front of it. China town is fun. I agree with others that The Music Man would be a better choice.
The thing about NYC is you just need to be aware of your surroundings. The crime rate is statistically lower than many cities including Orlando (I’m from there and I feel way safer walking around NYC). It’s more of a perception of feeling safe because in most places you’re in your car and not interacting with people. Just don’t be a dumb tourist and get conned.
Thank you for visiting 9/11,I almost was one as well, because of my plans being changed I wasn't on the first flight 9/11 had I been I wouldn't be here, Thank you for sharing this and we Nyers are always welcoming
welcome to my city. I love watching you enjoy this experience. so glad to see you enjoying my hometown. You really should hit up Brooklyn. some of the best spots are there!!!!
Great video :)
My husband works by the WTC buildings now... his office overlooks the memorial.
It’s the water that makes the New York food taste so good, I’m also born and raised in NYC. The other boroughs have more good food,
I used to work at Lincoln Center! It is one of the largest performing arts centers including The Metropolitan Opera, NY Philharmonic, NYC Ballet, Juilliard, etc!
I was raised through elementary school in NYC. You have to realize your in a city of 8 to 9 million residents which consist of 5 boroughs. Chances are your not going to be experience crime in a city that large however it is a fact that crime is up and I last heard by 43% according to a national news station. So even though crime is elevated you might not notice it in a city so dense and expansive. Another thought midtown Manhattan is not a crime ridden area either just saying. Glad you enjoyed your trip.
Been to NYC a few times and had a blast...was in DC in December for my daughter's bday and it was awesome!!! Founding Farmers was a great place to eat...enjoy brother!
Yes go more often for like a month. I’ve always wanted to go to nyc and am actually reading books on visiting it and your videos are giving great insight! Go again!
Thank you Kyle for stating there's a misconception about NY. It's a great city and we have great people here and our food is fantastic. So glad you came for yourself so you could make your own judgements. You literally visited all the lit spots. And most of the people telling you it's dangerous are most likely not Natives. Wasn't born here just live here.
Haven't been there since the 80's New your city is just amazing and the food is unforgettable! I'm so enjoying your vacation!!😇
Dangerous? You should've been there in the 1970s. Yikes! Pimps, hookers, junkies, criminals all over. Tourists avoided 42nd St & Times Square. Very few areas people felt safe in. The city was very dangerous, dirty, & bankrupt, etc. All the cool hip areas you see now were either rotting dumps or war zones.
Wall Street is more of just a tourist spot now because most banks moved their offices to midtown.
Your view on NYC is correct. If you want to find bad stuff. Homeless, mentally ill etc. They're plentiful. You'll find em. Especially around Penn and by 7th and 8th Ave. Be cautious and you'll be totally fine. Dont listen to the drama queens. NYC is the best! Glad you guys enjoyed...def stay longer your next trip.
My personal opinion on the “is NYC dangerous” topic. I’m not saying it isn’t, because that’s not necessarily true, but I do think people’s fears of the city are inflated after the events of 2020. I don’t live in NYC but do visit multiple times per year and the only times I’ve ever felt unsafe are walking around and on the subway late, late at night (like after midnight late). But even then those are few and isolated incidents. Use your common sense, keep to yourself and you’ll most likely be okay.
I’m not seeing New York’s dangerous it’s great for tourist you just have to watch yourself but there’s so much to do and you just scraped the surface you didn’t go to any museums and there’s a lot of them so there’s a lot more for you to do in New York and you did see a Broadway play you should Stay a week you always bring a smile to my face good job Kyle it’s great to see your friend Taylor and your sister Alexa I live an hour and a half from New York City so yes I’ve been there.
Lincoln Center - the MECA for 1st rate NYC Ballet , theater and opera!!
Considering that this guy lives at least half his life in a fake fantasy world (theme parks, cruises, etc.), I appreciate his open mind about the realities of a legitimate massive city.
Especially since NY is far safer than right wing Florida
We are an hour outside the city and my husband works there and my son is going to grad school there in the Fall. We come in a lot. It is markedly different than a few years ago. Glad you had a positive experience though!
So excited for you to come to DC! Even though I grew up around there, I think DC has such a unique feel as a city.
It also has a metro, so more underground trains for you to ride haha (also some of the stations are so cool looking in my opinion)
Hi Kyle, a couple of my relatives came to visit me last week and I was showing them the exact areas you're visiting. We even went to the magic hour rooftop bar. I'm glad you're having fun! I hope to see you at MNSSHP WDW this fall! 🙂
The Lincoln Center houses The Metropolitan Opera in the center, The New York City Ballet on the left, and the New York Philharmonic on the right. Juilliard School of Music is behing the Philharmonic building on the right side.
If you’re still there try to catch the subway to Brooklyn and walk the Brooklyn Bridge. Very nearby in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Dumbo there is a touristy area with super scenic iconic shots.
Keep watching :))) heheh
@@KylePalIo sounds like you have something up your sleeve 😏Don't ya 😉 😅
Happy you feel comfortable there. Don't live life in fear.
there's a reason people saying the subway is bad right now/ a dude killed 7 people on the subway 2 weeks ago
Car - like drive a car. Mines - like that is mine
Car-mines
Please go to the TKTS booth and get a 50% off ticket for a Broadway show
Please. Anyplace can be dangerous. Just be mindful of your surroundings. Have a great time and don't limit yourself to Manhattan. There are 4 other boroughs that are great as well and many things to do.
To be fair I’ve never thought of NY as unsafe ! We always felt safe and really explored , we didn’t however feel safe in LA until our third visit ! ( we arrived very late after driving down from SF and picked a dodgy motel, the room next door was raided by lapd at 0200, our first visit )
Here’s the thing: “dangerous” is subjective. I felt pretty safe when I visited NYC a few times about a decade ago. However my travel companion and I had to practice common sense at night. When you come to SF, the same will apply.
The 9/11 memorial is a powerful place.
I think that place is just famous for being an amazing place to take pics. Has been famous for a long time for that.
Lincoln Center is a prominent performing arts venue.
I lived in Brooklyn, the place you get Ice cream used to be the original place of Brooklyn bridge ice cream place … and the tacos place they amazing across from there they have great cookies place too …u should get ur pizza by Brooklyn bridge is way better than joe pizza ….
DUMBO is an a acronym for down under the Manhattan bridge overpass …. SOHO is south of Houston tribeca is triangle mellow canal … and yes gun violence and subway crime is up n the past year just stay safe and know your surroundings
I’m from DC Kyle! I can’t wait to see your dc vlog. You have to visit the smithsonian museums, they’re all free and I have the luxury of working at all of them 😄 If you want a ticket for the African American history museum, you have to go early in the morning to get a same day ticket👍🏾
The subway late at night is dangerous but it's cool during the day.
So fun to see you guys scouting around. All I saw is war of the worlds when you showed that shot of the homes and that bridge view. ✌️🌞🌻
The media is blowing everything out of proportion. NY is alive and well and safe enough to visit.
Also, funny because I was just at the Paris Baguette place to grab a bite after a meeting last week...haha
New York City is just about as dangerous as any other major city. Even smaller cities can be very dangerous. It depends upon the moment. I heard of one RUclips influencer who had moved to Florida because he thought NYC had become too dangerous. Yet, people reminded him that even Florida and many other places throughout the world have been getting more dangerous, due to the economic effects of the global pandemics. Welcome to post-2020.
I was born and raised in NY but I live in Florida and I'm terrified of going back to visit especially the thought of taking the train. Definitely great for shopping and the food is awesome but I always try to explore other vacation options.
As someone from NY we’re avoiding the subway mostly at night!
Wow! Your NY videos are great thank you for taking us with you 👍😊
An ordinary tourist doing ordinary things is perfectly safe in New York City today - it's only those who look for iffy things that can get into trouble. And Lincoln Center is the cultural hub of the city with The Metropolitan Opera, New York Philharmonic, and other earthshaking cultural things.
I've been here, but it has been 11 years ago. I'm from europe, New York didn't feel dangerous to me at all, I felt home. Would love to go back!
Looks like a fun visit. You definitely need to stay for at least a week next time so that you can explore places that are off the beaten path. Regarding the subways, we're not using them because we are still able to work remotely and it can still be dodgy down there, especially at night. Have a great time in DC. Keeping my fingers crossed that you got to take the Acela down to Washington.
Juliard school was at the Lincoln center where u guys were at. Robin Williams and Viola Davis went there. That is a great performing arts school. They tape alot of movies out there too.
