    Hello Tom, I am a New Yorker, born and raised. From 1969 to 2004. Former FDNY Firefighter and survivor of 9/11.
    Born in Brooklyn and raised in Far Rockaway Quees.
    I just recently came across your videos on New Years Day 2024. I absolutely LOVE your videos. You are so knowledgeable (a true historian). I currently live in Orlando, Florida, but if I ever go back to visit NYC, I want a tour from you.
    I have done everything you can think of in NY. (I am a true die-hard Newyorker), but listening to you made me feel like I knew nothing about New York. Now I have a renewed pride and interest in my home town. I done it all in NY.
    The real reason I'm commenting is because you need to upgrade your technology (do the tethering thing) and redo this 2 hour tour. I would have loved it so much more, and we missed out on some info while you were talking.
    Btw, I love the fact that you are Latino from Nicaragua. Both my parents are from PR. It great to see Latinos that are super intelligent and 100% American. You are also funny and real. We could definitely hang out. Anyway, God bless you, and although you do look a little like Manson, you have the heart and passion of Jesus, my Lord. 😉
    Love your heart in tipping performers, but that Chinese lady owes you.

    Great take on the Italians, Tom. They were eagerly waiting there for 100 years building churches and cathedrals until they could become truly assimilated Americans--their communities scattered to the wind and cleansed as happened to the Germans before them. Now they can live closer to places like the American Dream Mall.

    @PedroHernandez-im9zv 2 года назад +2

    Good stuff is what you bring to the people. I love NYC, born in NYC but not raised, Brooklyn is my cradle, then we moved to The Bronx in the 60s, when the boogie was the boogie. South Bronx burned. Then I moved to a similar town like Lowell Massachusetts, Lowell started the textile factories in the Merrimack Valley, it appeared all over the place yeah. No picking cotton for the people working in the cotton fields by hand in the south ext. The city that represents America's might. Ok, then I came back to NYC I told myself when I left at 5, I'm coming back, but this information is very educative for everybody. Specially the New Yorker. You get to love it more, when you're far away. By the way, I was hanging out in Quincy Market in Boston, where the constitution, was first discussed. For many years Lowell is like so historical, the end of era, now is high tech State of the arts, and work. Just like the industrial buildings are in NYC, that's how we also got it in Lowell Massachusetts and the rest of the state. Then you got the first tower made if cast iron on E 23 Rd St. Btw 5th av and 22th St. That's on Gramercy tech, cause 5th av divides the east from the west of Manhattan

    Wouldn't the taxis be able to undercut Uber on the price? I know a guy in the Chicago suburbs that took Uber to the O'hare for 50 dollars. I told him he could have gotten a flat rate cab for about 25.00. He assumed Uber would be cheaper. Cabs have to advertise their price.

      @@meiko_kaji i don't live in NY. This was in the Chicago area. I used the American Taxi company, which you can prebook. The ride can't begin and end in Chicago. They aren't licensed to do that. The ride has to begin in city( like O'hare) and end in the suburbs or begin in the suburbs and end in the city. Of course, it can go from suburb to suburb, but they aren't allowed to operate rides within the city. They can't go from O'hare to downtown Chicago. Maybe at certain times uber would be about the same, but sometimes it is more.
