Follow me as I walk the entirety of Charles Street in the Greenwich Village.
From Wikipedia:
"Charles Street is a street in the West Village neighborhood of Manhattan in New York City. It runs east to west from Greenwich Avenue to West Street. The street was named after Charles Christopher Amos, who owned the parcel the street passed through. Amos is also the namesake of Christopher Street, two blocks to the south, and the former Amos Street, which is now West 10th Street. Charles Lane is a one-block alley located between Charles and Perry Streets and Washington and West Streets. From 1866 to 1936, the section of Charles Street between Bleecker Street and West 4th Street was called Van Ness (sometimes Van Nest) Place after a farm, owned by the Van Ness family, which had occupied the square bounded by Bleecker, West 4th, Charles and Perry Streets until 1865.
Most of Charles Street - from Greenwich Avenue to Washington Street - is part of the Greenwich Village Historic District and Extensions, including the 1834 Federal style house at 131 Charles Street, which is both a New York City landmark (1966) and listed on the National Register of Historic Places (1972). Outside the historic district, but a designated city landmark (2007), is 159 Charles Street, the sole survivor of nine Greek revival houses built c.1838 at the former location of Newgate Prison.
Other buildings of note on Charles Street include the postmodern Memphis Downtown apartments at No. 140, designed by Rothzeid, Kaiserman, Thomson & Bee and completed in 1986; an eight-floor 2007 "glass box" apartment building at No. 163, designed by Daniel Goldner; Richard Meier's sixteen-story 165 Charles Street (2006), the third of a trio which includes 173 and 176 Perry Street, all of them glass boxes strung side-by-side along West Street; the 1930 ten-story Greenwich Towers at 726 Greenwich Street, which takes up the block of Greenwich Street between Charles and Perry Streets; and the 1840 brick row houses at 40, 50, and 52-54 Charles, which have been converted to studios.
No. 31 Charles Street, the Carolus Apartments, marks the former location of the Charles Street Presbyterian Church, which was founded in 1844 as the Third Associate Presbyterian Church.

Queria ver el edificio en donde se inspiró la serie Friends ❤️
I am running out of words to say about your brilliant and interesting videos. This was so good to watch it and was lovely walking with you again today :)
No problem 😃 it’s wonderful you’re enjoying them so much!
For someone who doesn`t live in the US, your Videos are really interesting. Love your commentary, and your voice is really relaxing and nice to listen to. Greeting from germany.
You finally made it to Charles Ln, Actionkid....great video ...the apartments along West St and neighboring streets go for $1,000,000 PLUS...the West Village is expensive. You passed the NYC Police Dept BOMB SQUAD. on Charles St. Keep up the great work.
@D B Not altogether true , DB. If you check out www.zillow.com there are apartments in the West Village for even less than $1 million. However, you're right about general pricing...big bucks for large apartments..
@D B That's the definition of a studio apt in NYC= closet.
11:45 The "tiny little white house with blue windows" was a MANHATTAN FARM HOUSE! Can you believe it? It was moved from the Upper East Side years ago. Search for: 121 Charles Street, NY NY
Wow cool!
@@ActionKid I learned about it in Junior High. They moved the cobblestones and everything. The large gate in the front was specifically put there so onlookers like you can see the house!
www.brickunderground.com/live/history-of-121-charles-street amazing!
There are a lot of subway stations that need a reparation / remodelation urgently, they're very old, in bad conditions and dirty. New York is a rich city and very touristic so the authorities should focus on that aspect which is very important, not only remodeling/restoring the stations which are in wealthy areas of Manhattan.
Very good observing and speaking well done! 👏🏻
What a great job they did with that pier. In the 1950's the west side piers handled many ocean liners which was the main means of transportation to Europe and other locales before air travel become dominant. The ocean liner piers were farther north, (pier 89, 88, 90). I remember back then if a ship was ready to leave you could spend a couple of hours on board by paying 50 cents to the longshoremans fund. Obviously you had to leave before the ship left.
2:33 the future has come [on the left]
Nelson's videos are always worth a watch, keep up the good work.
good morning from an x new yorker thanks for the videos i have been living in the fort Lauderdale area since 1975 i grew up on long island but spent a few years in queens and 3 years at 9 street and broadway so i watch to see what is still familiar to me ha ha ha very little . i did enjoy city island since i would go there by boat from manhasset bay many times to eat thanks richard in the tropics
I have never been to City Island. But it sure looked like my kinda place.
Very, very nice video ActionKid!!!...💝💝...beautiful, beautiful landscape!!!👌👍
gangas? what means the name?
Your videos give a real-time experience,, you are helping so many people around the world.
Thank you from India.
I love this video. I hope I can visit NY soon. Greetings from Germany
Yes, by all means, come to NYC and meet Kalergi-Merkel's Migrants 2nd favorite invasion target and of course the omnipresent Antifa.
I hope you come to visit soon 😊
please sign up at www.bigapplegreeter.org before coming to NYC..get a gratis walking tour from a volunteer New Yorker who will show you around town.
Love the lighting at 9:05
Cool as usual 😉
Also "No New York City video is complete without some scaffolding" 😂. Seriously though.
Thanks ActionKid
I'm gonna check out this Nelson Sullivan guy right now because of you.
Thanks again
I just watched his last video.
Wow.
It was so interesting seeing a little of what the area used to look like back in the day.
Was that Ru Paul back at the house.
Gonna b doind some more research into this guy who I've never heard of but must b one of the pioneers of video blogging.
Have a great day ActionKid
@@everillbarnswell4232
I think so but he calls her "lady bunny". RuPaul lived in Atlanta before NY. She was hitting on me at a warehouse party once. I was speechless, she's big...
@@kingofthecatnap5422 Thanks for that.
You learn something new every day
@@kingofthecatnap5422
'Hitting on you, wow.
That's one of those once in a life time events.
Thanks for sharing
@@everillbarnswell4232
I saw him out a lot back then in Atlanta.
I have been enjoying your videos for the last week. And what a great surprise to find that you are also a Nelson Sullivan fan! Retracing some of Nelson’s steps is something I always wanted to do. Please keep posting. I can tell you that after a long hard day they are a wonderful “release” for. Thank you.
Now this is how NYC waterfronts should look like. Charles Lane is an iconic street. Reminds me of The Netherlands. Thank you for another excellent video.
VERY enjoyable walk AK.
The dog part at the end was the PERFECT conclusion. 🤣
That is one posh place to live, thanks for taking us around there.
Im from NYC and this video was truly awe inspiring :) It makes you see the beauty in NYC you never noticed before! Great job as always
I love walking with you , so relaxing . Greetings from Germany
mit mir ist es genauso schön, wenn du magst können wir zusammen durch Bochum gehen ;)
I really enjoyed that!! Beautiful day!! What a great way to start my day!!👍👌👊💜💛💚💙
Thanks for this video AK! I saw my old building 15 Charles. I remember there used to be a dry cleaner nearby Harry's? Something like that. Brought back great memories. Turn left on 7th and used to walk to AGAVE to hang out! Thank you!!! You're the best!
Wow, so cool! Glad I could show you your old neighborhood!
Action Kid, of course another great job!..I forgot how charming the village is, haven't been there in many years..keep up your great work!
Thank you for this video. You're wonderful.
I am th
I came to this great country in March of 1952 by ship, the Ile de France, landing at pier 46 after being seasick for seven agonizing days. It seems like yesterday. I was eight-years-young then and rooted for the Brooklyn Dodgers. This video is precious to me for many reasons. I worked in the Chelsea-area, 14th-29th Streets, on the West-side, for twenty-years, mostly as an NYPD detective from 1965-1985. The piers in that precinct were know as, " the meat market" and processed beef for sale to all. An area not very desireable back then. Now it is much different and high-priced. This video is much like the Chelsea area, with similar buildings, as I remember them.
Thank you for bringing this video to the world so we can all see a part of lower Manhattan of today. Mike (Michel)
Great video Kid!! Could I suggest a couple of intresting streets to visit: 11th street from Broadway to West Side Highway (the say one of the most beautiful houses in the city). Also Greenwich street from Canal down to the WTC.
Great suggestions!
Andres Garcia , definitely! I used to live on West 11th Street in the 1970's.
@@claudiahansen4938 Must have been wonderful in the 70s. It was the golden era for the Village. Was it safe back then? Hope ActionKid can record that video. It seems nowdays some of the most expensive real estate is on that street. I believe Sarah Jessica Parker double mansion is somewhere there too. Michael Kors alos lives on the Greenwich Lane complex on 11th and 7th Ave.
Andres, yes. The Village was safe back then, except the W Side highway, and the meatpacking district at night.
@@ActionKid Yes...i agree that TRIBECA would be a great place to video..especially, Harrison St ( and the private houses nearby), North Moore St ( where JFK Jr used to live) opposite Ghostbuster's Firehouse, Vestry, Laight, Hubert, Beach Streets and Robert De Niro's Tribeca Grill and his hotel ...
I love watching your videos. They are so relaxing and beautiful!! I wanna love to New York one day and these vids just get me so excited!!
Yoooo ! AK ! That little house has a Huuuge footprint in a Rather pricey neck a the woods ! Reckon I'll have to research it myself !
I have an idea for a video:
How about showing the streets, if one side is free of parking cars, because street cleaning. (one time per month ?)
And the next step, the other side of the street becomes free, because cleaning there.
And you comment, how it works, and how the rules.
Longer videos please!
Always interesting tour!

Thank you for the walk.
New York new underground mall the Westfield world trade the oculus is beautiful.
don't forget Hudson Yards just by the Highline at 33rd St/11th Ave.
I've got to say, the simplicity of the videos I've seen of yours is really refreshing and enjoyable. I live in and love Los Angeles and like to explore much as you do. I only wish I'd videotaped my journeys as you do. Thank you for this. I follow along on the map and feel a little closer the New York, a place I wish I lived. Cheers
It's sad to see the Sixth Ave. Barnes and Noble closed. That was my favorite one and I'd go there to get my books and games. Thanks 😊
There's a great Barnes & Noble at Union Square..it's the best one. I am sorry to see Border's bookstore closed, years ago...and then there's Strand ..a great store on Broadway and 12th St.
Another excellent vlog!! 🔥
Thank you for the video I always wanted to go but i can’t. It makes me happy when you post new videos it makes me feel like I’m really there sometimes I like New York City a lot (Srry for my grammar it’s bad ).
I love the West Village but I get turned around all the time there...lol. I will be making that walk along Charles Street and checking out Charles Lane (which I knew nothing about). This was a beautiful video, ActionKid. Thank you for posting!
Your are welcome😃
it's amazing view thank you , well done again.
ActionKid, my brother walker and partner in success, have I ever told you recently of the success (and beauty) of your output contents? Well, then I am left no choice but to inform you now. This contents featured with Greenwich Village is beautiful to the highest degree and fullest extent of my liking, with many successes as well. It reminds me of elegant cow striding through fields of grass. I will continue to watch intently, as investor watches Dow Jones!
Thank you very much for your kind comments! I loved this walk along the Greenwich Village.
Tes, even in Manhattan you can find low rise residential areas can be surprisingly quiet and yet peaceful and as AK stated "being close to the action."
Sweet dude Nelson Sullivan mentioned that lane in his last video
7:41 Sevilla restaurant? Is it a Spanish restaurant? I live 62 miles from Seville in Spain. And I thought in English it was 'Seville'.
Yep! It’s a Spanish restaurant!
Really fantastic! What beautiful places! I didn't know this... Thanks Actionkid!! 👍👍
thank you for this great work
Great video, and great narration, felt like I was walking with you.
So glad your videos appeared on my feed! I visited New York back in August 2001, and have wanted to come back so badly. Thank you for sharing. New subscriber here! 👋
You’re welcome! Thanks for coming along 😊
You did again Action Kid what a beautiful neighborhood of NYC I have heard about Greenwich village and now I can see how beautiful it is and yes I can imagine how expensive it must be to live in the area as well. Another job well done and thanks for doing it 😀😀
Actually, the area is not Greenwich Village..it's the West Village.. Greenwich Village is a bit east of these streets and encompass Macdougal, Sullivan and Thompson Streets, Carmine, Bleecker, King, Charlton, W 4th, W 3rd, West Houston, Bedford, and a few others.
your stabilisation is remarkable
Thank you❤❤❤❤
One of the oldest lanes in town ! Look at this pretty little lane lol
awesome video dude , 👍
Someday, if God will bless me, I want to expirience walking in new york
You are sooo appreciated
by ex New Yorkers.. Thank you!! 🌹
🤗
This is in my actionkid top 10
I remember the pier Nelson walked on...it was not intact, had missing boards and was sketchy and dangerous to walk on. Dilapidated. Today's waterfront represents a gorgeous amenity to be enjoyed by everyone.
12:50 Yellow House - one of the ONLY remaining wood-front homes in Manhattan! 132 Charles Street, NY NY
There are also wood front homes in Harlem..actually porches...along West 130th St , specifically, Astor Row.
@@nasdaqua yes I've been to Astor Row and it is awesome. Looks like New Orleans. My 8th grade teacher told me they banned wood front homes in Manhattan in the late 1800s because of fires.
@@BradThePitts from wikipedia "The design of the three-story brick, single-family houses[2] is unusual, in that they are set back from the street, and all have front and side yards - an oddity in Manhattan - as well as wooden porches. The first group of houses, numbers 8 through 22, comprises freestanding pairs, while the remainder, numbers 24 through 60, are connected together at the rear.[1]"
Were you able to video record Jeffrey Epstein on any of your walking tours?
No I don’t think I’ve ever passed by him
@@ActionKid The FBI can't locate him or Ghizlaine Maxwell either. There is some interesting covert street footage of Prince Andrew peeping out of the door of Epsteins Manhattan mansion looking at a young girl.
@@ernsteck6582 I hope G Maxwell is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
GREAT way to start a day watching your vids!!! Beautiful!
Ciao. Renata
I used to live and work on Charles Lane N°7... for 5 years....historical and very calm but too dark..!!..thanks for the memories..

I Enjoyed That Dude!.
Great vlog as always kid the grenwitch village is a beautiful example of new york such a zen like place to live or just hangout looks like every woody allen film was filmed there realy lovey walk keep in up and stay safe ,peace.
Beautiful city. in love :)
I saw an old woman going home after shoping fegetables...likely. dressing white blouse..
Your video was worth of watching. Thank you so much for sharing this. It was amazing!!!!!!
Jon Bon Jovi lived 50 Charles St at 2018. Now in Greenwich Village Lane Condominiums in front of AIDS Memorial.

Is that anywhere near the entrance of the Holland Tunnel?
Yes it’s somewhat near the entrance.
In 1961 I worked at 250 Hudson street. Spring and Hudson may have been our subway stop. So long ago.
I'm with you on the dog crap & chewing gum lol.. hate it
Beautiful brownstones.. Love those kinda streets
tuyệt vời
08:16 Minute - Sarah Jessica Parkers and Matthew Brodericks House :)
I love walking in the city.♥️
Great video And thank you AK.👌
From Greece.
Planning a future trip to NYC and I’ve been trying to come up with a definitive walking route for Greenwich and West Village. This was SO helpful. Keep the amazing work
Blue and white house is a farm house owned by a author of children's books! It originally was on the East Side of New York on 14th Street and was moved to the village and is considered a landmark building! 121 Charles Street!!
I guess 14:26 is a building where a famous model Irina Shayk lives. I saw this building for many times in Google, and paparazzi noticed Irina lived there with her daughter. Thank you so much for showing Charles street! I hope one day I'll walk there too
Another great video! Because of your videos, I looked up some Nelson Sullivan videos. I must say he was an interesting character.
Greenwich village is an popular hotspot for filming New York movies and television shows.combine with its beauty.Greenwich Village has a proud history of going against social conformity,making it a must see.on any trip going to NYC.
New York was once a place we could afford. An author who really got it right was Donald Westlake with his Dortmunder stories.
Remembering friends who bought a brownstone on Charles for $69,000 back in the 1970s. Both worked to pay the hefty mortgage. The second floor is the drawing room floor , and my friend sat looking out at the London plane tree in its tiny square. Every time dog walkers looked as if they might pause, she rapped loudly on the glass..
Have not been to the Village since 1972, it looks so different today, thank you for the video.
Hugh Jackman lives on Perry St ( the building to the left of Charles St as you entered it) facing the Hudson. It would be awesome if you could do a walk round there someday.
Can you do another one in west village on another block? Love your videos ! Love from Hong Kong!
Very interesting and enjoyable. I need to get to NYC, it's been a few years. I especially liked this on Charles Street as the night before last we had dinner at our very good friends down here in South Florida who around ten years ago sold their townhouse on Charles Street to the actress Hilary Swank. If you can't be wealthy, I guess it's good to have wealthy friends lol. Anyway, very enjoyable and nicely done. We'll check out your others. Oh by the way it took me a few minutes to realize the Nelson Sullivan you were talking about, I always enjoy watching his old videos on RUclips.
In the 1970's the elderly proprietor of a Locksmith shop on Hudson Street, a lifelong neighborhood resident, told me that Charles Lane was formerly known as "Pig Alley" and that the pigs were driven from their holding pens down the lane to the slaughterhouse that then existed on the pier. He didn't live to see the final iteration shown in your video - but he could see it coming.
You're not stopping to smell the roses. Walking right past the architecture.
As you walk to the end of the pier, it is a shocking realization that once a great ship would have been docked here, with hundreds of stevedores loading or unloading, passengers and shipping.
Pier 90 was the Cunard pier.

'She's old school then she's like young
Little Eva meets the Bleecker Street brat
She's almost gothic but it's better than that'
Too many chains where real "city" businesses used to be. All but the multinationals are now priced out.
It's nice to see so many police cars around the city. I've read about people complaining the police abuse their parking but frankly I would like to see more police presence in my own town.
They used to show movies on summer nights with a projector on one of those piers, when it was just cement. I don't know which one. (2002)
After a hour of study session i take a walk ♥...thank u very much.ur videos r awesome.carry on d gud wrk
Hate to say that pizza store went up another penny. Soon after you left the area It's no more 99 cents😧... I guess it's the raising inflation
Always a nice vídeo.thank you Action Astoria Kid !
I was intrigued by the Charles street video as one of my godmothers lived on that street. In my mind I think it was somewhere in the 300’s but I don’t remember the exact address. Is there even three hundreds? Or just 3’s?
Excellent video. I live on Grove and Bedford Sts. all of my 77 years.
slowly getting through nelsons videos had no idea there were so many. would like to have been among those he called friend, great vid of a stunning area. thanks
