Feeling nostalgic lately, even though I was born in Yonkers, St. John’s Riverside Hospital, and only lived in Yonkers for 10 years of my life, but visited into my 20’s. It’s been well over 30 years and I can remember South and North Broadway like yesterday. Hasn’t really changed much. Family on Radford and Randolph Streets; North Broadway as well. Sad to see original Yonkers Library gone next to City Hall. Remembering winning an Easter basket in an egg hunt at City Hall when I was a kid. Took classes at YWCA across the street from City Hall, next to St. Mary’s. Amazing I still remember it all! Great video!
nice video. I lived in southwest Yonkers in the '60s and 70's. went to Saunders T&T HS when it was still on South Broadway. Once you pass Getty square and into North Broadway, my interest wanes.
Transplants to South Florida LOVE these videos! I grew up in Yonkers and it's heart-warming. (not about to leave Fort Lauderdale any time soon) The incredibly rich cultures we were exposed to are better than ANY University. Signed Dr. J
The Hudson valley really is beautiful. I loved going to bear Mount etc. On Mount beacon you can see the NYC skyline. It’s the best part of downstate imo
Yonkers, my city of Birth was called " Jon-keerz" a Dutch name. Van Cortlandt park Avenue is named after a wealthy Dutch Family. Van Cortlandt park, which mostly is in the Bronx is allegedly Haunted by the Ghost or Ghosts of the Van Cortlandt Family!!!!!!!
Great video. Somehow, very soothing. I think I’ve driven this particular route from the tip of Riverdale in the Bronx, through Yonkers, all the way to Dobbs Ferry, at least a couple dozen times.
wow brings back memories, used to visit my grandparents every other Sat/Sunday and drive this route with my pops. Always grabbed a medium burger at Morleys for dinner.
@@Gemini-oi5fb Edson and his buddy Dinson Caldwell were the class cut-up, always a lot of fun and Trish was a sweetheart. Her girlfriend Mary Anne Gauss was a sweetheart too and Mary Anne lived on the same street as I did and I know her from way back into the 1950's. I wonder how they're doing... Long time, y'know.
I love Yonkers. I was a skater and bombed down many hills. Odell was my hometown hill. Loved rumsey road, loved Oak, palisade ave, glenwood. Yonkers is just hills. If you adolescents and not skating, dafuqs you doin!? McLean anothe and Yonkers ave going toward ashburton from central ave. I had mad fun in YO, haaaa.
@@samanthab1923 I don't know why it's too far. I made that commute for a short time and hated it. I moved to Queens. Now I'm back in Suffolk but I work in Suffolk.
TheRabidPosum I worked in One WTC back then & remember a guy I worked with saying he bought in Suffolk because he got priced out of Nassau. I was commuting from PA at the time so it didn't seem crazy to me but then I remembered that damn LIE. Doesn't matter now there is traffic everywhere & at all times. Ugh
Thank you for posting this. At 12:40, can see on the right Christ the King grammar school, from which I graduated in 1975, and Christ the King Church, where I was married in 1988.
This Like A (1993) Columbia Pictures Film Release Of Neil Simon's Lost in Yonkers (1993) Starting Richard Dreyfuss As Louie Kurnitz Mercedes Ruehl As Bella Kurnitz And Filmed At Sony Pictures Studios In Culver City CA And Directed By Martha Coolidge And Based Off Of A Novel And A Play By Neil Simon And Released In Theaters Nation Wide On Friday May 14th, 1993 (05-14-93) And I Like Yonkers NY It's Amazing I Will Like To Travel To Yonkers NY Someday In Da Near Future.
Its like we have hoods that kinda look like every hood in a America just based off the architecture. Plus the water front and now there are more nicer areas to live at in downtown Yonkers (their expensive as hell, but nice) I call it west Chester county&s melting pot
Engine 4 firehouse and police station were on Radford st. I lived on Randolph st. , next street over. I remember the Park Hill movie theater when us kids could get in for a quarter.

Damn! I remember we used to go to White castle, on South Broadway, and get the 10 sack mini burgers with the chicken rings I miss my city 🥲 527!
Nice! Thanks for watching
Love this my grandmother had a tavern In The 70s and 80s on south Broadway. Miss visiting her and visiting New York

Nice place Yonkers very quiet and clean
Yeah right south Broadway is like the bronx dirty
I love Yonkers, just couldn't live there anymore.....taxes are too high.....
Westchester County is the most expensive in all of NYS
Awesome, i grew up in Yonkers.

9:16 on the right is the school I went to from 1975-1976. It was called Commerce Middle School back then.
Still is👍
Now it’s call Barack Obama school of justice or something like that
I came from Cuba in 1972. I still here.
I see you still haven’t practiced your English grammar.
I came from Italy in 1964. I left a long time ago.
I used to live at 250 North Broadway. Some of my earliest and most cherished memories.
Oh shit me too apt 2D 😭 I'm in FL now
I was brought home from St. John's to 470 No. Broadway
wow brings back memories, used to visit my grandparents every other Sat/Sunday and drive this route with my pops. Always grabbed a medium burger at Morleys for dinner.
This is really cool! I live on the Northern end near Hastings but grew up in south Yonkers. Moving on up! Haha great video
Awesome.💪💪💪. thank you for watching!
At 9:25 on the left is what was then The Halstead School where I went to high school from Sept. 1961 to May 1965.
My cousins attended Halsted about that time. The DeAngelis family : we all lived right off Broadway NW Yonkers
@@Gemini-oi5fb Edson or Patricia...?
@@ThomasDeLello Roger, Rick, Bob, Edson, Tricia, John and Cathy DeAngelis through the 1960/s.

They’re both doing great. Edson lives in New Hampshire, Trish is in Chappaqua. Wish I could attach a photo here!

Driving through snow in Winter is crazy with those hills too! lol Thanks for watching and sharing those memories!
Wow, it's like driving from Queens to Suffolk, but in a fraction of the time. I bet the commute to Manhattan is better from there than from Suffolk.
The commute is approximately half an hour to midtown from the Henry Hudson pkwy. It's not too bad. Thanks for watching 👍
The Hudson Line goes right through there...
25 years ago people were just starting to move out to Suffolk & commute.

Thank you for posting this. At 12:40, can see on the right Christ the King grammar school, from which I graduated in 1975, and Christ the King Church, where I was married in 1988.
That was the church we went to when I was a kid. Lived on Morsemere. Was up there 15 years ago for my uncles funeral. Hadn’t changed.

Its like we have hoods that kinda look like every hood in a America just based off the architecture. Plus the water front and now there are more nicer areas to live at in downtown Yonkers (their expensive as hell, but nice) I call it west Chester county&s melting pot
