Photographing New York City, one neighborhood at a time.
www.cityneighborhoods.NYC is your portal into the rich tapestry that is New York City. Beginning in 2014, I began a project to visit every neighborhood in Manhattan and photograph what I saw as I visited. To date, I have completed my tour, visiting nearly every block, every street, and every avenue on the island. The result is over 20,000 photographs that (hopefully) capture the spirit and diversity and beauty of New York City.
As of 2022, I have begun exploring the boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens. Expect to see updates to their diverse neighborhoods in the near future!

@@cityneighborhoodsnyc Because these were German concentration camps on Polish territory. The same like Bełżec, Majdanek, Treblinka and many many more...
I see your point. I'm going to add those specific details to the video description to make it clear for anyone who does not already know that "Auschwitz" is the German name for the Nazi camp (rather than the Polish "Oświęcim" which refers to the town).
Thanks for visiting and taking the time to comment. The neighborhood is, indeed, scenic (especially along the water). But considering the ongoing "debate" about whether or not the neighborhood should carry its original "Throggs Neck" moniker or the Robert Moses-ified "Throgs Neck", I thought it was worthwhile to capture and highlight the name as it appears on the post office. At the very least, it seems we agree on the proper nomenclature! Cheers!
Thanks for stopping by! Having spent a couple of days there, I’d say the neighborhood still has beauty. Love the architecture, tree-lined streets. Met some really nice people, too!
The Bronx is named after a savvy Swedish immigrant & merchant/business guy, by the name of Jonas Bronck, born in Sweden in 1600. In mid June 1639 he came over to New Amsterdam after crossing the Atlantic on a dutch ship, named "De Brandt van Troyen". Eventually, Mr. Bronck bought land from the Native Americans, expanded & did very well for himself & his family, who was referred to as the Bronck's. Hence = The Bronx! Ace Frehley of KISS grew up in the Fordham section. Serial killer David Berkowitz grew up in Soundview & Co-Op City.
my aunt rosa still owns a brownstone that she brought in the mid 60' with $$$ that she made as a number runner ( bookie ) for old maxx kling the jew gentlemen gangster

There will be one in the near future! I visited North Riverdale and Riverdale (including Wave Hill) back in July of 2023 - which means I will be posting the photos and video as soon as I can. You can check here to see all of the photoshoots I took in 2023: www.cityneighborhoods.nyc/2023-photo-shoots
Disagree. There are many more major metropolitan areas in the US with significantly higher crime rates than The Bronx. Also, there are plenty of places in The Bronx that are very desirable to live in.
YES Riverdale is beautiful, solid with the 50th Precinct. however it's expensive yet competitive. You actually need to take Metro North or Express bus into Manhattan get a car if you want to get to Westchester County
@@TheAbxgirl Riverdale is a hidden gem of The Bronx. Very forested. Tree-lined streets ... even without sidewalks! A really bucolic corner of NYC that most people don't know about.
@@cityneighborhoodsnyci kinda like the fact that riverdale is still hidden from most New Yorkers.. I enjoy living in what I call a metro-suburban neighborhood.
You know why they're building in the Bronx because Manhattan is astronomical living in Manhattan if you want to live in the city the Bronx is the cheapest way used to be all Italian-American built that City but that's what's happening right now is that Manhattan is too expensive they're finally thinking that the Bronx is cheapest real estate you can
