born and raised in the South Bronx been here my whole life 63 years....and I still sometimes shop on 3rd Ave..I remember when I was a kid and the 3rd Ave el train station was there....I was living on bathgate Ave in 1973 when they started to dismantle the 3rd Ave el... I lived all over the Bronx from the 60s until now...but I grew up in the South Bronx fox st Charlotte st vyse Ave bathgate and grand concourse.
@@FrankinDallas yeah I used to go to the pool room over their back in the 90s...they also use to have a motel right there on the corner...don't know if it's still there I think the name of it or was called friendly s.
@@bostonman8347 it don't matter whom property it is. The sidewalks has to be clean up. The law is in nyc clean your store front or get a fine. Whom ever is working in the stores has to clean it. And if you rent the store out from a property Manager you have to clean the sidewalk.The find is your not the property manager
I love your videos, I love the Bronx and everywhere you been in the city. You going where the people live, shop and all that I look forward to every video you put out.
I was born and raised in the bronx. In the 60. I use to love the bronx. It was clean all the way to the 80.i graduated from Theodore Roosevelt hs. Move to the sunny state.
Run for the hills! Run for your lives! What a shame to be stressing on such a nice day. Life is too short and too long not to be as happy as possible. Thanks for the always fantastic walks and have a great weekend ☕
But they swear they live better than everyone else since it is NYC, the best decision I made when I left, now in Texas, way better and cost effective.....
@@martincarr4204 Yep the past two administrations really did a number on the city. Me i was born a New Yorker and will always be one but if i were to move it would be Florida as a few of my relatives moved there just before the pandemic and when visiting its like what the best parts of New York and the upstate areas were like with everyone welcoming and smiling as if they have known you all there lives along with thriving quality businesses. A place of commonsense and law & order. Glad to hear Texas worked out for you and is bringing the joy ☕
The city has not been this dirty for a long time now. Landlords are fined if there is trash and garbage in front of their properties, at least they were a short time ago ...
this part of the bronx is actually my favorite area in the whole city. really nice people, good dominican and puerto rican food, and it's really not that bad (especially compared to where im from)
I was born in PR..raised in the South Bronx, lived in the Bronx from 58- 2010.. Used to shop on 3rd Ave with my mom.. when the El was there.. then with my kids.. last time I shop there was in the 90s … It was always crowded… but never ever looked that dirty and nasty.. Store owners would clean their front sidewalk or pay someone to do it! Fines were issued during the Bloomberg administration… Sadly Third World on the making!
It always amazes me how people stop in the middle of the sidewalk to talk on the phone or chat with friends blocking the path for others - clueless. In my younger days, I would simply shove people out of the way, They were so shocked, most did not want to step my way afterwards. @13:50. What is he doing with those grapes?
Wow as a former bklyn ny raised brother, it's mind boggling how nyc has become so trashy with its current residents. Everyone 🧍♀️ or sitting around should be handed a broom,shovel & black garbage bags. Dam take pride in your neighborhood. I moved out 26 yrs ago once joining the military and has been one of my best decisions ever. Yet I miss flathbush ave and I reminisce on growing up on East 32nd street and Tilden Ave. Proud graduate of Erasmus hall high school.
@@mikerod76 Well. These are the areas that gets more views but if you look into my channel you will find videos from all over the city. Neighborhoods like WoodHaven, Bay Ridge, Williamsburg, Norwood, Dyker Heights, etc have all been filmed.
@@TheAbxgirl Well they'd believe it if they were shown that part and not just the bad or poor parts of the Bronx. People that have never been to the Bronx only seem to know it from the movies or videos showing one side of it, most areas of a city, town, or anyplace for that matter have at least a small area that is nice. I grew up in the South Bronx, but I knew about other areas too, I was just too young at the the time to move from there.
