You're welcome.
It is really advisable to read the comments first..........thank you sir
Thank you, because she was annoying me in the beginning. It was like, can you please stop talking and get to the point??....
Life Lover yes!
Tks a lot
Morons, that was a great intro.
Manhattan.. the home of the most expensive parking garage
Real talk. 35 an hour. FOH. Parked in queens and took the subway next time.
Traffic and parking are brutal ... especially around the Upper East Side area where I go to York Avenue around upper 60s, low 70s. Actually, you pay less for parking the longer you stay at the garage, it can be around $40 for the day. Parking tickets are much more expensive in that area, too! I just go when I absolutely have to. :)
luvsdvds $40 for the day? That’s Nightly Rate for less than 4hours. I had lunch with my wife.. she works at rocafeller center. I paid $120 for 55mins. Not the place for parking at all.
@@cheapestwhips2010 --- I live in Queens, so I only go to Manhattan when I go to NYP Weill Cornell Medical Center, we have parked in the hospital's parking lot, so I guess that is why it is more reasonable? You have made me feel better about the parking fee! :)
@@mar.c1 that is totally Insane!!
Another fact for #9. Times Square use to be called long Acre square because it’s an acre long. The name was changed to Times Square when the New York Times moved into the area. The old Times Square headquarters in Times Square remains empty to this day expect for the Walgreens/Duane Reade that occupies the first floor. The building pays its property tax from renting Ad space on the side of the building.
Great info.
Thank you for this!
BTW, an acre can't be "long." Like saying an apartment is 500 square feet long. But we understand your short-hand. And thanks for the info. Actually I think it was more likely named after a person, perhaps a property owner, called Longacre, or a place name in England. There are lots of places called Longacre. And the origin probably, as you say, might have to do with a narrow area of tilled land (an acre) that has long sides.
Oppo
NYC..... it's like a love and hate relationship. I hate it at times, but I love NY.
Same
The same ....
I'm going to walk down 6 1/2 Aenue tomorrow, lol. I have passeed by many times, but never looked up to notice the 6 1/2 Ave sign between the Avenues...
Rank Upp You haven’t missed anything. It’s as useful as Old Broadway in Harlem.
Its nifty when you work in teh area, I swear you can cut from like 51St street through 57th.
I live at 6 1/2. So I always tell the cab driver to drop me off at 6 1/5. Some flyovers don’t get it. Yeah from 51st to 57th, you can walk through in the middle of Avenue.
Then check out 7 1/2 Ave.
Manhattan is also site to the annual general assembly at the UN, and also in Manhattan has the oldest hospital that is Bellevue
Jason Anthony thanks Jason
Also, the oldest tree in NY is in Washington Square Park about 200 yrs old, whoa!
That hospital MUST be old because I was born there LOL
Brad the Pitts lol you got humor
Brad the Pitts not only you was born in that hospital & l don,t think you that old by you google account profile youtube pic je je
Really enjoyed this, not the same old stuff covered in other videos. Finally something creative and new! Nice job.
Thank you for watching.
I knew them all except the (sometimes) $200-300K annual cost of hot dog cart permits in high traffic areas. The Italian Mob was cheaper LOL
oh boy, look at you! Mommy's little man all grown up!
That's bullshit. Hot dog pay way much less than that. This lady is a bullshitter about NYC.
It's a dollar a hotdog. Cheapest in the country. Get real loser.
@@rudeboyjohn Yeah, and thanks to me, YOUR mom is gonna' give you a new brother!
Is she joking about the $200K-300K permits for a hot dog stand???
What about the passenger tunnels under Rockefeller Center
Such lists are usually low effort but this one is actually well done and informative. Nice.
It's OK I'll have to check out the low line next year, I wonder if the voice are computer generated, just give it a script and go.
But did you know that Manhattan and New York County are not the same? Ask anyone who lives in Marbel Hill it is not in Manhattan but in NY county
Don’t forget uptown , Harlem , Washington Heights , Dykman!
Wafflez-Man- 💯💯💯💯💯💯 🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
That's right!!
Ed Holohan lol you probably live in Williamsburg or lower east side you yuppie. Go back to whatever state you from.
Ed Holohan that’s what’s up make sure to tell all those out of state hipsters so they could stop moving in trying to kick out the longtime residents
They are neighborhood of Manhattan not boroughs COME ON MAN GOOGLE IT & WIKIPIDIA IT
These videos are some of the best I’ve seen. So informative and scripted so well. Easy to follow and understand. Keep them coming.
To a modern-day visitor, the site of Seneca Village resembles much of its surrounding landscape: rolling hills, rock outcrops, and playgrounds. But what many do not realize is that this area near the Park’s West 85th Street entrance has an important history - more than 200 years ago, it was once home to Seneca Village, the largest community of African-American property owners in 19th-century New York City.
The village existed between 1825 and 1857; by 1855, there were approximately 225 residents, which consisted of roughly two-thirds African Americans, one-third Irish immigrants, and a small number of Germans. As the first significant community of African-American property owners, Seneca Village provided residential stability. With property ownership came other rights not commonly held by African-Americans in the City - namely, the right to vote.
When the City built Central Park, the Seneca Village residents were displaced and all traces of the settlement was lost to history. Since the 1990s, scholars and archeologists have been working to bring the history of this significant community to light. In June of 2011, a group called the Institute for the Exploration of Seneca Village History conducted an excavation at the Seneca Village site that uncovered stone foundation walls and thousands of artifacts from residents that offer valuable clues to unraveling the story of this community. *information from: www.centralparknyc.org/things-to-see-and-do/attractions/seneca-village-site.html
Thank you for this.
Very informative. Thanks for the info. And thanks for the additional links for further research.
Very informative. Most people that comment dont know how to get their message across articulately.Very thorough for a comment section.
Hello from Delhi. Although I'm from OH n miss the States terribly. Thank you for interesting info.
Debra T jan 18th, '22 this site no longer exists but shows park conservation now.
You forgot to mentioned Manhattan is the home to the biggest Rats in the subway... That's a tourist attraction.
its funny cuz since i came to manhattan i didnt see a single rat in the subways... maybe i'm just lucky?
Just an urban myth !
@cindi brady I have seen one on the subway tracks and one on the sidewalk ; they were both normal size . I am curious about your name , do you know about the " Cindy Brady " on the Brady Bunch TV series from about 50 years ago ?
Still the place ppl flock.
@@baileyelliott7277 I "flocked" out of New York. Never again. What a joke of a city.
Lived here for 44 years. Complaining about parking i Hear you. Heres the trick go google street view and look at alternate side parking rules. Plan accordingly and wait in car for about 30 minutes.
The DOT has an interactive map with all the alternate side parking signs and suspension calendar built into it. No need for Google Street View!
If own a vehicle here just suck it up and budget $6,000/yr. for parking.
Thanks for sharing the details about the lowline! It's such a cool concept/soon to be reality! We love NYC! New Jerseyan here :)
I love the enthusiasm of the narrator! Infectious!!
NYC....best city on Earth
Hi:) I have just found you and watched a couple of videos, and they are great, very informative! Thank you.
Fascinating and very informative!
You forgot the Hudson Yards, newest tourist attraction
Dmitriy Lyubarskiy yes!
they didn't "forget"
Thank you so much for uploading this video. It is helping me get through the pandemic!
Great video!!!!! While I've visited NYC many times, there were many on the list I did not know. (I *have* walked 6 1/2 Ave. ;) )
Very informative I learned a lot and I'm always in manhattan 👍
OMG! Before the video even started I was sure she wouldn't mention 6&1/2 Ave! It's my favorite Manhattan fact to tell people. 😁 I love using that walkway. 🤗
For the longest time, the East Side has had a "half avenue," between 3rd and Park, called "Lexington," and another, between Park and 5th, called "Madison." The West Side, however (always having been just a bit different) named their first and only one "6-1/2" rather than borrow another Revolutionary War moniker.
I REALLY hope that this catch on, and we eventually get, on the West Side, "5-1/2," "7-1/2," "8-1/2," and "9-1/2"; and, on the East Side, "Concord," "Hamilton," and "Jay."
:)
I have used the 6 1/2 Ave. walkways almost every workday since they were built, but I never noticed the signs. But I retired in 2015. Maybe they are new, but maybe I just walked and paid more attention to not being hit by a car in crosswalks. Lex Park and Mad Avenues are not half avenues!
@audubon crosby Did u go to PS132? GWHS?
Awesome Video! I’m Canadian and I visit NYC every year. I love it!
Thank you so much this video was really informative .....helped me know more well Bout the most luxurious and well planned city in the world
NYC!!!!
Thank you for these wonderful videos
Thank you for watching.
Thanks this video was super informative.
Thanks for uploading the video, I didn't know about the Low Line being in the works. :) I was surprised not to see anything about Fort Tryon Park, The Cloisters, the Museums, the neighborhoods ... there is so much to see ... it's a shame that you have to confine it to just 11 things. You might consider covering more points in more than one video?
So fun! Have lived here a long time but it's always fun to learn more! The Low Line park is so exciting!
Loved it! Give us some more of that NY accent pls! :p
The best time to go to NYC. Is in Spring and Summer time.
I've always visited NYC in May and September. Not tooo hot and not tooo cool. So you're right.
Im going in april my bday month
And fall
October, when the parks turn red and orange and yellow. Seeing central park change through the seasons is incredible.
I love that I found this channel!! Thank you!
Thanks for this video! I love NYC
Lived on Central Park north and 7th back in the 80 loved every minutes of it
Thank you very educational.
Girlllllllllllllllllll I was blown away by some of these facts. I have to walk though 6 1/2 Ave everyday for work. I went to high school on City College campus and I didn’t even know their beautiful facades was made of recycled bedrock! This was an amazingly well researched video. Can’t wait for more ❤️🙌🏽😂
Thank you for watching!
Emojis must’ve translated different for your phone.
That’s what I intended to do
Did you attend Music and Art HS?
Ronald Simmons | Randolph
BTW.... Manhattan is the 3rd most populated borough.
Betty Boop It’s also not the smallest Staten Island is
@@MikeJ2023 By land area, Manhattan is the smallest.
Love your videos, thank you!!!!!!
Nice video, good job!
Cool video, thanks for posting it!
Thank you for watching.
This was so informative! Currently a 25 yr resident/cyclist in Union Square (via Soundview, Bronx) I never knew about some of these hidden jewels. I ❤️ my NY & Im not going anywhere lol
Cool
This is a very good video about Manhattan thumbs up
This was so good 💯
This video is awesome! HOWEVER the comment section from the natives is legendary 🤣💜💜👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
My favorite place is Macy's, can't beat shopping 🤗
Jeanette Heart agreed but the store is very confusing lol
They used to be SOOOO much better (and less expensive) until they became the #1 tourist attraction in Manhattan and did that “facelift”; they now look and feel just like their sister store, Bloomingdales. New New York sucks!
Another voice.. thanks !
I feel sorry for the hotdog vendors just trying to make a living...thanks for the video...well done!
My goodness, how things change indeed. I'm glad I left when I did. They ought to do a flip side to this video with all the homeless, the super shady/dangerous neighborhoods, the high rents everywhere (including the other boroughs) and other assorted true info. It was however, the best place for a wild child to be hanging out at back in the 80s and 90s.
Lesley Amiroly couldn’t agree more. I’m from Manhattan and left in 2010. Haven’t even visited for the past 6 years.
still the best city in the world
@michael battista
And YOU and people like you are the reason why it SUCKS.
@@danmcdermott7480
ONLY if you're young and restless.
That's when it used to be really dangerous.
You did share a lot of things I didn't know and I grew up here!
Ive worked in so many buildings in Manhattan i sometimes forget how cool it is to be a construction worker in NYC. The two buildings she showed on millionaires row have the most beautiful views of NY ive ever seen, i worked in both of them and have cool pics. The white one also has like a 14 ft. Sway tollerance, it actually moves back and forth over 10 ft in high wind, you can feel it.
I wouldn't want to live in any building that moves that far left and right.
Wow, very interesting 😁
Oh, Thank you !
Here are a few more fun facts for everyone:
1. The best thing about NYC is packing up your shit and moving out.
2. The best pizza in New York is in New Jersey.
3. Most people who claim to be from New York aren't
cool video with interesting info!
I'm a proud New Yorker, a Downtown Manhattan resident and I learned a few things today. I truly enjoyed this informative video...looking forward to another cool one.
Yeah man proud too
I'd love to visit one day from Scotland. My great aunt moved there in the 50s
@@spo5egy
This should be one of your plans on 2020. Although New Yorkers have a great time in expressing themselves in a unique way, we also welcome everyone to visit our UNIQUE CITY and make you part of it whether you like it or not 😁👍
New York City has the BEST Melting Pot in the World!!!!
❤
Manhattan is GROSS!!!! If that's what you're proud of, you should be ashamed. Go live in a better place, of which is virtually anywhere else.
Thank you for saying Grand Central TERMINAL. Too may people, even NYers,say station.
I was born in NJ and grew up in CT. Everybody called it Station back then. This is something new to me but I don't mind.
@@miriambucholtz9315 The station is the subway. GCT T is for terminal because it is the last stop.
@@docmccoy95 In other words, we used the terminal to go to and from there and the station to get around the city. That makes sense.
Grand Central Station is the Post Office, Grand Central Terminal is the train station.
She says Grand Central Station at 11:00
Beautiful!!! I love NY!!!
Such a lively city! 💙💙
Fantastic city to visit. To live and work? Not so much...
IT smells like piss lol
Love it, WOW NYC
Manhattan used to be such a nice place.
😂😂😂😂😂😂
It still is. It's a lot better now than in the 1970s!
#13th the Houston street in the Bowery district does not pronounce like "Houston" Texas. It pronounced like "Howston" by some of us, the Manhattanites. A native accent, that's all.
LOL That's what I have learned first in the early 90's when our tour guide (German) recommended that special pronounciation. "Otherwise they (the locals) realise you don't come from NYC!" Same goes for 'Greenwich Village'. I guess 90% of all tourists may say 'Green(...)' instead of 'Gren(...)'
Yup, we ain’t in Texas lol
well done.. I ride in Manhattan on Saturdays.. didn't know the 11
Wow wonderful city
Great video, Made me wanna go live in NY, but then I remember its in America
not really.
Very much true 😭 as a native New Yorker I had no idea about the 6 1/2 Avenue until I worked on W 53rd between 5th & 6th Ave a few years back 😂
I like this video because it’s very interesting and informative. I like the lady putting her own “view” into her voice.
I also like it as I’ll never have the money to go there, well at least not yet.
Thanks very interesting! greetings from Santiago Chile 🇨🇱 😊
Everything is exspensive in Manhattan
Not true, there is plenty of free entertainment especially in the summer from legit concerts in parks, jazz music at Lincoln Center, free outdoor movies (last one I attended was sponsored by Carona...so free beer?). So just have to know and plan it right...oh yeah take the Staten Island Ferry (free) for nice views.
After living in Manhattan for 35 years (1960 to 1995) (mostly in the midtown area of East 52nd Street) and enjoying much of what is depicting in this video, I found another gem in another part of the world (a place that I merely visited for one week before I broke my promise to myself of never ever moving elsewhere). During that one week (supposed one-time only) vacation, I fell in love with a place in Mexico called San Miguel Allende and visited it 4 more times during the next years 1993-1995) before I found out I was in love the San Miguel Allende and broke my "affair" with Manhattan. And so I moved to SMA on April 25 1995 and even as unexpectedly to me, myself, never returned to Manhattan or even the USA in the many years that I made my home in San Miguel (now 1995 to, well at least today, September 26 2021), now 27 years and still counting. Once again, I figure to never leave my new love, SMA. But I did get a divorce from 3 women and 1 town, so who knows what is next?
Thank you for loving my country Mexico
Proud Yawker. We do indeed put up with a lot. No guts no glory.
I live in staten island and on a hill, and I can see lower manhattan, Jersey city, and newark, New Jersey, and a small portion of the verrezzano bridge.
The Lowline Park...The underground park in an abandoned subway station. It's the perfect greenspace for people who prefer parks that are inhabited by rats instead of squirrels.
There you go, to each his own.
A squirrel is just a rat with a fluffy tail
I enjoyed, .... this video.
I Lived at 20 Clinton street for 12 years until 1991 and the changes are amazing, Went back 5 years ago to my old place and glad I saw it,
Lady, you’re good! You got me on all except for one, where they store gold. I knew that from one of the “die hard” movies.
Thank you for watching.
@@allnyc3412
Many had tried to deliver a Manhattan message, BUT NOT LIKE YOU.😁👍
After you, there's been many tedious copycats trying to portray the every day life in the BIG APPLE. One "Californian Brah" as she called herself, moved to a New York suburb with a roommate from Craigslist, found herself in a livinhell' and called herself a "Native New Yorker" as she went hopping around New York "as a blogger for RUclips." Then, she mentioned the word "temporary" because as fast as she snooped in, she snooped out back to her now again "Native Californian STYLES" back to California, but not before leaving my Precious City, trashed our ways with great discomfort noting her finesse COMING OUT OF HER A**, AS IF NEW YORKER HAVE TO USE THE "FOK WORDS" as adjectives for everything and everyone.
I'm not sorry that her little ambitious plan failed. That mostly happens when your logic is flawed by your own analytical reasoning for which is 0 to none. I'm glad that she's "so far" gone from New York City. At the same token, her RUclips videos should be censored, furthermore canceled.
Thank you for taking your time in a constructive manner. I'm proud to hear you voice your knowledge INTELLIGENTLY.
Is respectfully addressed that NEW YORKERS don't need to inflict violence to have half baked ideas posted on RUclips.
What I know having studied, worked and lived there in the late 60s/ early 70s while working as a fashion illustrator is that my one bedroom apt on the Upper East Side in an old brownstone was $90 dollars a month/rent controlled, 30 dollars a piece with two roommates and now that exact same apartment on East 91rst Street between 2nd and 3rd Ave. goes for $2500 a month! Of course, fully renovated now. Checked it out on the internet! Shows you just how GREEDY landlords/banks/people have become since then! A subway token was 35 cents a ride...what is it today? LOL Still LOVE NY even though my apt was robbed once and ransacked! Scary!
"All things Pretentious " Belongs to LOS Angeles, The east coast is real baby!
It's the new people who are pretentious. New Yorker's always been real.
Freaking A right!
All you eat is Mexican food and talk with Mexican accent. Lol
Yes sir
Im from a farmer's town in england but i love NYC its my new home and im not a hipster lol i like steak and beer not smoothies and vegetables
I LOVE NYC every day more and more
I was born on that island called Manhattan!❤💗💯🇺🇸
Manahatta is the OG name
Impressive!
I've been to Manhattan twice, it's awesome!
BWyatt76 I live 25 miles north of Manhattan I go all the time.
I live in southwest Florida I’ve never been to Manhattan
Thankyou
I've performed in Manhattan. I 💘 love it!
Pole dancer, are you?
I love how it actually taught me things I didn't know. I was expecting fluff like
"Did you know SNL films here?" and
"The borough's known for yellow taxis."
So where does SNL film?
#10 was a total surprise.
i cant wait to visit #11.
Omg I recognize those men 11:16 11:17, they always singing in the subway cars
Yesss they come with their little gift bag of donations on the carts lol . I love them
Also, the world government, or the United Nations, is located in Manhattan. It consists of five buildings and a small park. The tallest building, the Secretariat Building, is 39 stories tall. A tour of the UN is a must for visitors to NYC.
Moved to Manhattan in 2000 from CA and never looked back. Now own a mortgage free pad on the UES, work in finance in midtown and enjoy my fave restaurants all over the city. Great city. Near the 6 1/2 avenue is the BEST burger stop inside Le Méridien hotel- West 56th street (believe it’s called the Burger Joint). Worth a stop and enjoying a delicious cheeseburger.
😳🤯 this is my home
I paid 12 dollars to park for 12 minutes close to 42 st and 7th ave. Outrageous.
believe it or not you're lucky to even find a space in a garage
I’m a born & raised Bostonian but I do love my NYC. I’ve got a timeshare in Manhattan that I wouldn’t give up for the world!
Traitor!! Red Sox beat Yankees, and Tonite beat Rays to go to AL Champ 2021.
First off, let me say, what a great video! If I remember correctly, Times Square was named after the New York Times which had their printing presses on 43rd Street (or 44th) between and 7th to 8th Ave. And I'm not sure if they owned the iconic building, number One (1) Times Square!
I Remember The First Time Me And My Mom Traveled Here From Philadelphia It Was Beautiful Many People Though But We Had A Good Time. I'll Definitely Wanna See New York Again 🥰🤎🤍💫
Back in 1968 The tv show That Girl, Marlo Thomas did some of the openings in NYC , she wears a beautiful purple dress when she walks through Lincoln Center.

Love to see six and a half avenue !
You represent and showcase NYC so well 😊!!! Makes me wish I were a native NY’er!!!
I knew fact #9 about the gold reserves! Good video though, 😀
After living in Asia, NYC felt like going back like 30 years.
NYC is stuck in the 80s amd living off past glories
Ruth Cuadrado
You are so right.
No, it isn't. NYC is an older modern city. Takes time to change infrastructure. It's the people that make NYC great. The most diverse place on earth.
Derrell Rose NYC i great, but it’s old.
There are places in Europe that are architecturally old but feel modern. That’s not the case for NYC. It’s all outdated. Even people.
And what does diversity have to do with anything?
@@RuthCuadrado u inexplicably said "... living off past glories". Not sure what this means but I've traveled quite a bit and everyone wants to go to NYC. The people make it desired "not feeling" old. Hope this brings it full circle for you.
@@RuthCuadrado thats true, in london we had contactless facilities for 15 years now, nyc still uses signature on card payments, london has oyster card, new york city still uses the old system with the metrocard, outside manhattan new york city neighbourhoods seem old, london has more mmmodern neighbourhoods
Great narrator 😊
