If you’re ever in NYC, do yourself a favor and hire Tom for a private tour...he’s extremely informative, funny and very down to earth...he will also take you to places off the beaten path and give you a taste of the real NY which has disappearing in certain ares because of gentrification..plus you get a nice work out
Very cool. Thank you for the great interesting informative tour. Lived in forest hills for 9 years. Moved in 2021. Have never been to Ridgewood or Bushwick. Great tour.😊😊
Dude I've myself have pondered the same thing...and concluded that those poor souls can't help it....A hater must be a hater. They can not go against their nature..
I live in NYC for over two decades. I am very interested in Tom's outstanding contents. They are not for shallow-minded people. I really want to see Tom's channel grow 10 times bigger. But Tom's delivery and media "persona" are not working for his commercial advantage. He acts and looks like an unsettling homeless guy on some sort of drugs. ( Please don't be mad at my honest feedback.) We certainly need someone doing what Tom is doing to learn more about the history and culture of our fantastic city. Can Tom's delivery and persona become more "user-friendly"? Such as talking in a calmer tone and more pleasant cadence and polish his appearance a bit to look more like a professional and respectable character?
I grew up in Ridgewood and moved out about a decade ago. It makes me sad to see some of the changes there when I go back. Growing up on the weekends the elders would be out cleaning the streets and us kids would help and then play on the sidewalk until the sun went down. We didn't have any of those ugly big buildings that are popping up on random blocks. No corner bars. It was a great family neighborhood, safe and clean.
I was born in Ridgewood. My Father’s family were Germans who immigrated to the US in the late 1950’s and Landed eventually in Ridgewood. My parents got married in St. Matthias (Ma-thy-us) church. I went to kindergarten there too. We moved when I was 6 but had relatives that remained there. All the roads you mentioned I walked with my parents because the street I lived on was off of Myrtle Avenue. This is a great video.
That Ridgewood reservoir was the reason for the dozens of Bushwick breweries that opened mid-19th century. It was said that water was perfect for brewing beer.
Love NY city and surroundings but also love the history of it so I’m glad i’ve found this Chanel that tells all of these great “from-the-street” rich stories ... another sub here. Thanks!
Such a great presentation style, certainly something to aspire to, you did well covering Ridgewood in one video. At 25:26 I thought that you might have talked about the movie "The Irishman", several scenes in the film were shot between that corner and St. Matthias. The reservoir is a great place to film migrating birds in May, it is a great little stopover for them.
My Grandmothers family settled in that area, originally from Sicily, around 1912. My Grandmother lived on St. Nicholas Ave. until the early 90's. I walked many of those streets Tom was on, 1/2 a century ago. Nice memories....
Okay, Tom. You are hilarious! I loved the Ridgewood vid because it is your hood and that made it special. My visiting family was watching over my shoulder and said, “Ahh, he is exactly our kind of weird.” That is a HUGE compliment. 😆
This was my home town from age 1 to 8. I went to Our Medal of Miraculous Medal school, lived off of Linden Street, went to the old Oasis Theatre, and loved life here. We moved in 1969 to Northern NJ and stayed there for 52 years but would travel to my grandparents' house in Glendale -- one town over and where I was born -- ever holiday. Almost all of my mother's family and relatives lived on the same bloc in Glendale. The last time I was there was in the early 2000s and much has changed. There is no Woolworths near the subway station, no Oasis, no Chinese restaurant or German bakery nearby or gym or pet (that always gave out goldfish on Halloween) store, or Bohack grocery store on Fresh Pond Road. Karl Ehmer is no longer there. So much has changed. Still, I have wonderful memories of our railroad apartment and life in this neighborhood.
Sir you're walking tours are amazing. I love NYC as it is prominent in so many shows and movies . I've been wanting to go there. I shall as soon I finish my education here my country India. Bouncing through different videos realting NYC I found your channel and I must say I'm very grateful.
Great tour of Ridgewood, Queens and the surprising reservoir and park. I love the family type neighborhood feel of Ridgewood and there doesn't seem to be too much traffic.
You are thre best with that brain and mind of yours which goes back to the beginning of all which you explain so well, not just touching on the surface like most!
Ridgewood Reservoir was fed by multiple man-made ponds on the south shore of Long Island. Wantagh was once called Ridgewood for this reason. Also look into Lynbrook (Brooklyn backwards).
Nice job. Most people do not talk about the ZIP code change after the riots. I grew up on Wyckoff Avenue which in the 70s was known as part of Ridgewood even though it is in Brooklyn. Now I think most people just call the Brooklyn part Bushwick and anything past the border on Cypress Avenue as Ridgewood. I still describe Ridgewood as straddling the border though.
I grew up in Ridgewood, but definitely took a lot of it for granted, now that I’ve been priced out, I have this immense nostalgia for it but I know I’ll never be able to afford it again. Lol. Feels bad man.
@@fehyndana7725 I could probably just point to the increase in housing prices first, but if you were in Ridgewood as long as I was (20+ years) then the change should be obvious. Actually moving about 15 blocks down into Glendale got me a $400 a month decrease in my rent. Although, with the way landlords are exploiting the inflation to raise rents... It's unlikely Glendale will remain a better option.
My aunt taught there. My fathers family grew up there. We used to visit their railroad style apartment from the 50's thru 70's . I know they all lived there from the turn of the century, and they had nothing, esp in the Depression. Wish I could remember more, oh and Grandpa worked in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, sick plug!
Love seeing people giving the "yellow brick road" its roses .... grew up there and still live there. A lot of the reason Stockholm st stood the same was bc towards the late 80's and 90's there was a block association developed. They fought to keep it looking the same, kept it with a queens zip code and it eventually became a landmark. They also named the block after the block association president Pauline (who passed away). She made my childhood terrible but kept the block beautiful for the most part. She also was a major racist lol.
i don't know if you have ever done a tour of EastNew York but if not it is a very interesting area with a rich history. i was born and raised there in the late 1940s and through the 1950s and some of the 1960s. go to Highland Park it's beautiful.
I’m so glad I came across your channel a few days ago. I must of crammed 2 months off vids in one week 😆. I grew up in ridgewood and graduated from St.Matthias. I have fond memories of running laps around the reservoir with my father when he was still around. Thank you for the trip down memory lane 😊
I grew up on Woobine right above Vendetti Square , i was a kid when that happened and i remember they never cleaned up the blood in the area that it happened , i also worked in the liberty building when it was Busy bee a mini- mall . and the Ridgewood theater , which was in pretty bad shape already in the early nineties .
I loved this! I've lived here for a while now, maybe you'll do a part 2 on Fresh Pond if you haven't already. That section is much different from the Myrtle section!
Love what your doing with these really informative historical videos. So with that said how about East Williamsburg? It would be a really interesting to hear about the history of that section of Brooklyn. Thanks again for what your doing.
I so enjoyed this walk with you. Many of my family members lived in these various communities as for me I'm a Bklyn Girl and love Greenpoint been here since a young girl. 70 now so I have seen many changes as a matter of fact I live in a building with the beautiful brick that you mentioned. Love my block and my stoop! Thanks you made my day happy.
Hey buddy I just did a marathon of all your tours on RUclips what a great job I just wanted to let you know thanks for everything by the way I'm from Ridgewood 2 now I'm living in Lindenhurst Long Island rock on brother great job
I love Queens & live not far from you. Can't wait until you do a Corona Queens vd. I just came across your channel, love it. Thanks for such explorations and explanations of our City!
That house on Onderdonk St is beautiful and big . I have walked the entire Ridgewood with my Rottweiler in past 10 yrs . I remember craving Kinder Schokobonz during a snow blizzard and had to take my dog out to pee anyway soo we walked all over in knee high snow til I found my chocolates . And after walking for hours, I finally found a store that had a few bags left, you’d have thought I struck gold, I was so happy I took my dog to the huge pet store and let him pick out whatever treats and toys he wanted. And he did. I was sooooo happy coz I am VERY VERY VERY picky about what chocolate I eat. I refuse to eat any American made garbage chocolate . Now I have a good friend in Germany who has a store that carries my favorite chocolate and I found out the Kinder made in Germany tastes ALOT better so I pay her to mail me the chocolates. A months supply at a time. I’m a lil weird. But who cares. I am what I am .

A lot of the little garages that you see in the neighborhood were formerly horse stables. You can't unsee it once you see it.

POGO ONE
yes ... sweet Ridgewood memories
I love those old apartment buildings in Ridgewood Queens.
they're the best, aren't they?
This is the other side of queens.
Ridge wood , middle village , Glendale , maspeth
Atlas park mall is a nice hidden gem
I was about to say. I live in ridgewood n this def ain't it. Great video though. You never see anything about ridgewood so its dope to see this
Juniper Park is really nice.
I agree. I stumbled upon Atlas Park mall and I was flabbergasted that I’d never been before then.
I was born in Ridgewood. My Father’s family were Germans who immigrated to the US in the late 1950’s and Landed eventually in Ridgewood. My parents got married in St. Matthias (Ma-thy-us) church.

What was it like in the 50’s was it weird after ww2 toward Germans ?
Did you study German in school, or are you German regarding ancestry.
Born and raised in buswick(harman and irving). Went to ps86k. JHS162 and grover Cleveland HS class of 84. Different world back then.
awesome tour of Ridgewood, I luv how it’s not so crazy busy like most of NY is, quieter slower pace and love Highland Park
I'm from Ridgewood too. Thanks for the tour.
That Ridgewood reservoir was the reason for the dozens of Bushwick breweries that opened mid-19th century. It was said that water was perfect for brewing beer.

I grew up in Ridgewood all my life and there's so much I don't know about my own neighborhood. Thanks for sharing!
When I graduated from High School in 1972 (Bushwick HS), we had our graduation ceremony at the RKO Theater on Myrtle!

I actually lived in the corner building (Onderdonk & 69th) in my youth. It was surreal seeing it in the movie!
Another unknown film location, Freshpond road, in the sopranos when the Shah’s spot gets bombed.
Tom is the King of Queens!
My Grandmothers family settled in that area, originally from Sicily, around 1912. My Grandmother lived on St. Nicholas Ave. until the early 90's. I walked many of those streets Tom was on, 1/2 a century ago. Nice memories....
Ditto!😊
awesome
Tom, can you do a walking tour of Glendale also!
This was very educational for people who need to know a little history of where the live.
Ah the NYC undercover cop look, you wear it well Tom!
On the contrary, it’s a “look” that he’s too OLD for, by quite a few years!
Okay, Tom. You are hilarious! I loved the Ridgewood vid because it is your hood and that made it special. My visiting family was watching over my shoulder and said, “Ahh, he is exactly our kind of weird.” That is a HUGE compliment. 😆

Thanks for the tour of Ridgewood, the town I grew up in.
Awesome! Grew up in Ridgewood and Bushwick from1970-2000❤

I swear when I lived in Laurelton Queens back in the 80s the bank my mom used was Ridgewood Savings bank off Merrick Blvd.
