  • Exploring Jersey City, Journal Square, West Side, McGinley Square, Walking Jersey City, Jersey City Walking Tour
    In this video, I explore the central part of Jersey City including neighborhoods like Journal Square, McGinley Square and West Side. Jersey City is big multicultural city, and while many people focus on the downtown area, there are other neighborhoods worth exploring. I start my walk around Journal Square, which is changing a lot and seeing a lot of construction of high rise buildings. It also have a cool street called Newark Ave with a huge Indian population. After exploring the section of Journal Square, I get my bike to ride and explore other areas of Jersey City. I pass by McGinley Square and head too Lincoln Park, which is a local park in the area. I end my bike ride in West Side Avenue, where there are many restaurants and stores. Hope you enjoy this video, stay tune for more.

    Thanks, Manny. I usually have problems figuring out exactly where you are over there, but this video kind of brought me back to that Jersey City vibe. I lived and worked there in the '70s, and was back over the following years, plus delivered supplies down there for most of the first decade of this century. Despite my dislike for those new towering monstrosities, I would move back there in a heartbeat if we could afford it. Keep your videos coming, I appreciate them, and I'm glad you're getting a chance to feel the heartbeat of a vibrant city that's on it's way back into the new era.

      Thank you, I wish they would not build these tall buildings and maintain the neighborhood like it is, but still enjoying the experience of loving here.

      I sent your video to my ex-wife who lived there with me back in the '70s. She's been diagnosed with early Alzheimer's, and I thought this might get her memories going. She loved it, and asked me to send her the ones you did in downtown JC, and also in Park Slope and elsewhere in Brooklyn where we had also lived before JC. Just to give you a heads up and another thank you for the pleasure your videos provide. Thanks for all you do, Manny. @@MannyExploresVlog

    Great video on JS. the boring 5 over 1 architecture condos are somewhat of a necessary drawback to the affordable housing in the country right now. I see them pop up all over the other parts of NJ and i read that their design is usually bland and repetitive because that's what makes them low cost and affordable. Good to see JC try to help out the people

    Manny, in the apartments on journal square at JFK and sip avenue right there on the corner, I was living in there when I was 4 years old 1969, and the first time I saw snow I remember walking out of the building on to JFK boulevard getting in my father's car, and the snow all over the place is my first memory of snow 4 years old living there in those apartments. Also in those apartments I remember the first time I saw my guardian angel. And also in that apartments I remember sticking the key in the electric socket and I burned my hand with electric. I'm only 4 years old I have those memories of that in those apartments.

    Manny the DQ ice cream place on West side avenue has been there since the 1950s. A couple of blocks down from there you were talking about the Filipino restaurants my grandma lived there , you passed right by her house on the corner of Boyd avenue and west side. They used to have across the street from my Grandma's house LBC shipping from Philippines. She live there like in the early 1970s and died in 1986.
