    I love the Met and have seen them mention the Cloisters here and there, but I never made the effort to go up there (I don't live in NYC, but travel there frequently). I will put it on my to do list. Thanks for the video!

    It just dawned on me that if I was to meet up with someone who wanted my time to be really fun and informative, it would be you. You have a special empathy about you that resonates with your viewers. Thanks for sharing your local knowledge from this side of the pond here in England (Brexitland 🇪🇺😂)

      Thank you! I've been visiting parts of Upper Manhattan so I can put together a video overview of Upper Manhattan.

    Just don't go further south from here or your health will be at risk, uh-hum! That said, this is a gorgeous area of Manhattan/New York City. Deep and historical, rich with antiquity. A nicer day would be harder to spend any place else.

    Grew up around Ft. Tryon, there's a few caves there. I found many Indian arrowheads which I still have. I left in 1989.

    I went to school In this area, and I didn’t never ever acknowledge the fort Tryon park as an actual fort smh one of my regrets is not exploring it more as a historical site

    They also had a Medieval Festival at Ft. Tryon (pre-pandemic) with many vendors, displays, and exhibitions such as jousting and sword fighting Knights, etc.

    • @UrbanCaffeine
      @UrbanCaffeine  2 года назад +1

      Sounds like a great location for a Medieval Festival! Maybe they'll bring it back this summer.

    I once crossed this park at night - in attempt to make a shortcut from 190st subway to Broadway st. (down that hill). Oh boy... what a creepy place.

    Good to watch Thea's video again! Same week. I like how Thea says her name.
    Do you watch ActionKid's channel? He does a lot of (livestream) walking tour videos,
    His fav park is also Fort Tryon Park too!
    Thanks for the tip to take the A train to one station and leave from another.

    • @UrbanCaffeine
      @UrbanCaffeine  3 года назад +1

      Yes, I've come across his channel. Lots of good stuff to see in New York. I used to think the C train stopped there too, but I guess normally the C only runs up to 168th, so it's only the A.

    Hi amazing video! I have a quick question, is it safe over there? and also the subway stations are they safe that far north? Thank you. I'm planning to visit in March.

    • @UrbanCaffeine
      @UrbanCaffeine  2 года назад

      TBH I haven't been in that area for awhile so I can't really say. If you want to stay comfortable, you can go midday and not stay too late. I probably wouldn't stay past 5pm in March.
