NYC LIVE Exploring Manhattan & Brooklyn : City Hall to Red Hook to Times Square (April 17, 2021)

[Music] so [Music] do [Music] so [Music] [Music] what's up everyone it's april 17th 2021 it's a saturday afternoon 1 15 p.m 52 degrees fahrenheit i think it's around 11 celsius uh boogie bob is in the house with the first question would like like to know if you mount your gimbal or hold it ah depends i have a good setup here today i'm not using this right now because i roll my bicycle down here with the gopro but i'm about to strap everyone over here the chest mount and we're going to go on a bike ride so hope you're going to enjoy this as you can read from the pin message you probably won't be able to get my responses all the time because i need to concentrate on the road but let's get this ride started i should be able to see everyone's live chats from here but on a delay so let me make sure i have everything set up okay i probably want the chest mount a little bit higher okay let's go brooklyn bridge is right there i'm at new york city hall right now in lower manhattan we're going to downtown brooklyn first yep i got everything zippered up perfect let's go i'll get to see how the camera angle is from here looks like i even need to point it up more hmm that's a little bit too low it seems to be up a little more move it over this way up always hard to get the right angle maybe here let's see let's see what is going on here big crowds go up to the curb well this is going to delay my start going over the brooklyn bridge but this is fun to see too thank you boogie bob five bucks appreciate it [Music] well this made maybe a little bit tricky to get across and i do want to get away from this music because i'm going to get copyrighted so let's go up i care about copyright more than going over the bridge it's going to be bumpy because i don't have this camera on any kind of stabilizer i just have it on a chest mount but at least it's not at night time we can handle the bumps a little bit better all right this way brooklyn bridge time [Music] mm-hmm [Music] that's a cute little dog in the window we have part of the bike mob going over the brooklyn bridge now doing wheelies this might be interesting yo that's a little bit too close bruh my gosh drivers are very impatient today thank you miguel magia ten dollars reggaeton's garbage well maybe for you i don't want to uh judge anyone else's taste of music everyone's got their taste all right brooklyn bridge time aka bike lane bike lane and one dollar water one dollar water ice cold water hopefully i don't have to use my loud bike horn today all right let's go brooklyn bridge here i come and downtown brooklyn here i come too i'm standing on my pedals now going over the bridge i haven't done a bicycle stream in a long time i can't wait for the city to move the bike lane over to the roadway to my left that's still in progress yes that's more steep i'm actually breathing a little bit heavy now all right let's go around these thanks man oh gosh here we go i see all the crowds of people also looks like the camera angle is a little bit low but that's just the way it is i can't really adjust it much more right now man this is bridge is pretty busy today yeah it is busy today for real long selfie stick to my right what's up with today i love new york but it's because of people like though that will stand right in the middle blocking other people from walking path that they have to go in this way it's a big problem here too many people taking selfies that's a nice picture though right here but i'm glad the city is finally doing something about it but the changes can't come soon enough and this doesn't make it any easier now it's like a blind corner hello i love the quickly flex of the boards it really gives the bridge some style oh i've seen people do wheelies over this week it's pretty crazy i've seen some bike crashes over here not involving me though but i've seen them online yeah pretty crazy a great part about having a large group of cyclists in front of me is that it kind of clears the path [Music] oh there's someone coming around now want to slow up there's also a cone there look at the city did that here we go it's going to be quickly clap in a big way soon try not to go any faster than this otherwise it gets a little bit hard for me to stop more quickly especially when i see little children oh yeah i want to go really slow that's a nice dog all right now i can speed up a little i can take those entire left side all right and now we're in brooklyn let's go to brooklyn bridge park i think that'll be a nice little adventure for us [Music] i could go around the cattle shoot to downtown brooklyn but i'd rather go down the stairs to dumbo let's get off [Music] all right lv say i'm going fast i was going fast now i'm walking the same speed as everyone else i got to put in some muscle here to get my bridge down the stairs cycling in new york also works out the upper body because you gotta lift your bike up and downstairs [Music] here we go everyone's going for a ride now all right let's stop for a minute so i can see where my live chat is and what was delayed a little bit i also get a drink of water serious asking if roommates are worth it uh that depends on the roommate some roommates can be awful really bad yeah these trees are pretty right lv a nice big and purple let's uh go up close to them wow looks like washington street is busy too that's the street everyone's familiar with and dumble and take pictures [Applause] the mighty bulls in the house coming to you from brooklyn new york very nice i'm only walking my bike here because i want to get up close to these trees they look beautiful oh gosh this isn't even like a public park or a garden and he got something like this in the springtime this is certainly a nice little hidden gem out and about with lizzo c you wouldn't like to take the bike down the flight of stairs yeah it's uh very intimidating to do so sharon asking if this is dogwood i don't think these are dogwood i think this is another species of cherry tree i don't know the exact name of it but it looks cool but yeah i'm gonna take my phone off the chest mount just so you can get a look at it zoom in a bit gary's saying it's a red budget whatever it is is very nice all right let's get on the bike again and maybe we'll head towards washington street even though it's a one-way street it's nice to walk down if there's a lot of people there taking pictures all right let's get on to the street now oh pothole that could be recorded street between prospect and i think this is front street no it's not front york street says do not enter but we're going to enter anyway and just go very carefully down here oh this red car is coming up the street so here's dumbo folks i don't see too many people taking pictures is gorgeous i also like the outdoor seating space that they put over here really nice oh wow look at this that's a very flowy dress sharp suit hold up that would be like he's dragging you yeah joseph the bridge is perfectly lined up in the background manhattan bridge with the empire state building right in the middle of the arch it's so cool we got some nice pictures here i don't really like the um the barricades in the back though arno can i please walk 69th between columbus ave and central park west he lived there number 44 nine years ago when you're six years old um i'll try to remember if i can go up there the next time i'm there barefoot vlogger gorgeous shot of manhattan bridge used to take the d train from brighton over that bridge it's gorgeous let's go this way i think this entrance to brooklyn bridge is a little less crowded we'll get riding again this bike certainly handles the cobblestones a lot better than my electric scooter [Applause] and i can ride over here over here a little bit better for cycling all right right turn here main street we're going right into the park i think uh timeout market may be open on at a limited capacity i'm not sure about that but we'll see if that's the case thank you jasdal with 149 euro appreciate it very much and is here oh new york life vlog joining in the chat thank you his live streams are always awesome and you know it's also awesome this view here let's take the phone off the harness and i'll hold it scott briggs you tried driving to red hook months ago the traffic was at a standstill on the belt parkway so you gave up well that's not good well that was pretty quick i got here really quickly from manhattan if i was walking over i'd still be in the middle of the bridge right now [Music] you know what i'll do i did bring my gimbal with me i think this section of brooklyn bridge park deserves to be walked with a gimbal so let me get that out [Music] i forgot i had it with me until right now but i came prepared today where's my uh tripod did i bring it yeah i brought the gimbal but not the tripod for the gimbal but it's okay i don't need it because i can always just set the camera back down on the just give me a second thank you warren vine with two canadians appreciate live stream a ride through salem at 1am oh i'm not even near there if i'm ever in the area maybe but carlos at this place you prefer walking of course of course before i start walking around that needs to be zippered up all right jack of all traces a bicycle gimbal oop i can't stray too far away from my phone in the holster because i have it connected to my charging cable but when you're juggling so many electronics like this it gets a little bit difficult zoe khan this is the mercier kilo wt it's a single speed bike yours truly lizzo no i'm not locking my bike because uh it just brings a lot of weight and i don't plan to stop for too long anyway it's a hassle to cycle in new york especially if you're me and you gotta bring all the stuff with [Music] you look at this this brooklyn restaurant is open now ali bhg asking how old is this building it's pretty old used to be a coffee company i think actually i shouldn't have titled this video nyc cycling because now i'm walking i should just leave it as exploring let me change it because obviously i'm going to be switching between the two today all right so let me change the title really quickly it's nyc live exploring all right title's been changed nyc live exploring i know dutch like blogger is hard because i really don't know where the live streams will take me sometimes it's like i can cycle i can walk i can ride my scooter take the subway so i don't want to just name it one method of transportation i like to leave it open oh this is a neat picture here holly's saying i can edit after oh very true hey laurie you like the older police station building you turn into con lose yes that was pretty awesome arnold you wrote me a dm on instagram oh nice i'll check it out later warren vine with two canadians where's the skid row of new york city did any stream there uh as far as skid row goes there isn't really one street that's known as a skid row in new york city let's check out timeout market i think it's open now limited hours though [Music] oh look it's limited hours wednesday to friday saturday and sunday so it's closed from monday and tuesday [Music] jose you remind me of your best friend shelby chan he was always on the cutting edge of video technology love exploring the city architect and photographer i would do a lot more things if i didn't have like time restraints like i would do a lot more photography but youtube is one of the best things i could do with my time oh also um i just thought about it the pin message at the top saying while i'm riding my bicycle i'm unable to reply to messages that can be stay up there i don't need to keep adding it and removing it that gets annoying sometimes and i think it's uh evident when i'm riding my bicycle that i'm not able to reply to everyone anyway sharon joy i bring to others is priceless thank you sharon appreciate it this is a great view here timeout market is open it's awesome [Music] oh lizzo st anne's warehouse was a former tobacco company there is a former tobacco factory nice to see the timeout market returning to new york city this is always a big hit with tourists uh cafe logos where i recommend the pizza place all the tourists hit here you mean grimaldis and julianas yes they're very good i don't think i've tried uh ignazio's though which is around the corner from both of those but one bite pizza reviews did barstool sports dave portnoy he said that place was actually better than either of them and i actually like juliana's pizza so he's uh setting a high standard there [Music] the mighty bull at 4.99 thank you for mighty bull appreciate it anthony thanks for the recommendation best bagel place near penn station you're very welcome that place i love it this is all going to be redone emily roblin plaza okay thanks for the info slice ball sometime soon barefoot vlogger i'm not far from dowry i already crossed the brooklyn bridge at this point i don't think i'll be heading back here's ignazio's pizza which supposedly according to dave portnoy is better than juliana's and grimaldi's but i actually like julianas i've never tried ignazio's oh german venice a good channel yup very good channel in uh california i've seen his channel too warren von two dollars canadian which food represents new york city the best pretzel no not pretzel it's bagels and pizza hot dogs used to be up there but hot dogs are not really as common as you would think brooklyn ice cream factory is open now over there [Music] there's a lot of work going on here look at this even over here so uh let's walk by the water here i'll do a view of manhattan and then i'll head back on my bike oh lena i'm gonna be riding again so i'm just gonna leave it up there because it's just easier for me there's ample hills creamery ample hills creamery and brooklyn ice cream factory two competing ice cream stores in the area here's a view of the brooklyn bridge new york city ferry [Music] amanda asking which ice cream i prefer out of the two um i like ample hills because of the variety of flavors it has but brooklyn ice cream factory seems a little bit more tasty it's been a while since i had both so i don't really compare the two i don't think it's fair for me to compare the two really [Music] all right i think it's uh time to hop on our bicycle now or my bicycle thank you roland tucker five canadian appreciate it very much so on the switch transportation options just give me a second while can i do that snowed up noticing two water bottles yes i think i'm gonna or i might need it and this just goes right in my pocket deep pockets so i'm not worried all right let's go bike riding now um yash asking why do i have a gopro in my head because i make youtube videos and i already made a video going from queens to city hall and that will be a separate video i feature later please walk your bike from here i don't think i'll need to do that because there doesn't really seem to be anybody here and the bike lane really goes on this side anyway yeah cafe logos i did not take the subway this whole time that's correct oh here's uh the swiv park bridge going to brooklyn heights this is a very nice ridge i recommend you to check it out i've walked over there many times before things you need to be careful of the small children here whoa little kid just came into this side here's the bqe the brooklyn heights promenade triple canty lever deck that's still going to be needing a major reconstruction i don't think the city has really decided what to do with that yet like the brooklyn bridge wow there's some nice cherry trees over here a whole bunch i didn't know brooklyn bridge park had uh several over here but there's a beautiful park to come to seems like things are blooming now or starting to bloom that includes all the vegetation at brooklyn bridge park uh let's go behind them all right saying i have good moderators yes they work very hard and i appreciate every one of them they keep everything orderly and they're very nice people i can't thank them enough for keeping everything awesome in here lies washing from bangladesh awesome far away place once in a while when things get very busy in the chat room they may not catch everything or time out people by accident so we have to give them that opportunity i know a lot of people get vocal when stuff like that happens [Music] do i like andrew yang i have no comment on political figures [Music] i try to stay out of politics where i can am i able to go up and around here i think i can yes it looks like there's a path this way perfect heckle man all right so there's a very convenient restroom here but i'm not gonna stream in the restroom so let me put everyone on a be right back screen and i'll be out soon i'm just going to bring my bicycle in the restroom be a lot easier [Music] so [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] [Music] all right i'm back let's continue cycling all right that was a very clean restroom i recommend this one here because it's a little bit out of the way not too many people know about it compared to the one where washington street is and by west elm thank you warren vaughn five dollars i'm not gonna comment on that but thank you for the super chat people can support whatever political candidate they want but i don't want to discuss it over here hey all right so to the right of me is uh brooklyn bridge parks barbecuing section it's hard to see over here because i'm riding my bike on this side um i think this side goes to red hook i haven't really been down the red hook coming this way yeah let's go down this way to red hook it's a neighborhood i haven't been to in a while joseph uh your friends in england love watching my videos appreciate it very much thank you [Music] it's such a gorgeous day out everyone's out now enjoying their day the barbecue spots are hard to get by the way i think there's only an hour limit for the grills if you're situated there and the park rangers make their rounds they remind people that there's only an hour limit which is tough because sometimes setting up the charcoal and cooking everything to take a while you want me to go to ikea yeah i can uh ride my bike past there that'll be kind of cool to go see ikea i haven't been down here in a while this is uh really built up now they really did a good job with this sidewalk oh [Music] so we're going to be passing by the brooklyn port authority marine terminal wow there's a green way here on this side too i think red hook might be this way let me see if i remember this is definitely very cool rose you wishing you had to ride a bike i never think it's too late to learn a bike or learn how to ride a bike rather you know what i don't think i was supposed to go that way but this is kind of cool you get to see the uh lower east side route atlantic avenue the lower east side um ferry [Music] uh chris asking if i'm going to carol gardens or cobble hill i haven't been there even for over a year um i've been there to carol gardens but i've kind of passed by the border i don't think i'll be going there in this live stream i'm going to red hook and then head it's south i think i think there's also another ferry station here inside the um the red hook area this one's a little more tricky to get to [Applause] what is going on here oh i guess they're redoing the curb there's no curb cut yet so they're making all the cyclists go up here well that's tricky well at least they did that so we're pretty much in red hook right now along columbia street don't remember the last time i was down here riding my bike there's a random chair off my right laurie you're gonna join me on my on your stationery for a while that's good a lot of people watch me on a treadmill or stationary bike and they get their exercise that way which i think is an absolutely fantastic idea now i can go down this way the waterfront path or i can go down columbia street which is a red hook's busiest street but i want to see what they did over here now over here this is the other ferry station for red hook you kind of have to go like oh it's not over here i think it's around this corner here even for me i've been in this area it's hard for me to find it yeah we probably won't be able to see it here but it's somewhere here you know i'm a real big fan of the way they did these bike lanes here seems like it's a street that's not very crowded and there's a lot of space wow party up on the roof there this is the tesla building why is there a party up there oh my gosh tesla's partying because elon musk is a wealthy person now probably look at that huh right up there i'm sure you can see it wow well it looks like uh i have to merge over here now onto van grunt street ikea plaza to the left i guess we gotta go this way yo good thing i didn't make a left behind that car i didn't know ikea was this close in red hook i always thought it was a little bit further down and we're not even by the water so i don't know why that sign pointed off to the left there oh here's columbia street yeah i'm gonna make a right here just because i'm unsure where this is going to lead me i think it's going to lead me under the highway there and it's going to be very crowded we'll just head right on to the water on columbia street i wonder how the sandwich spot is looks pretty good defonte sandwich shop they certainly got a lot of stuff in the window oh wow we got a bike lane now that's pretty neat jonathan's saying it's bumpy yeah it is bumpy the city could do a better job with the roads we've got the police department here and also the fire department also pretty deep pothole there oh wow the cops lock their key in the car that's funny well an emergency service for another emergency service that's the first time i've seen that [Music] if anyone wants to joke about wasting taxpayer dollars that's a perfect example right there who are you gonna call when the cops lock their car and they forgot the key to the fire department [Music] sometimes you find the randomest things in new york and that's one of them you know what it was a good thing i went this way because ikea is right here to my right i would have completely missed it because that sign back there said ikea plaza to the left if i went just one block more i would have completely missed this and what is this this thing is huge oh my gosh there's so much construction happening here all right ikea toil brush salesman saying action kid extra footage right there i guess so right i guess we'll ride our bike through the ikea parking lot it's pretty nice over here just make sure the roads are clear before i turn all right we're good everyone else here is making a left i don't know why this driver just waited there in the middle all right we're in ikea the swedish home goods store that's very famous now and they also got like very good prices on their hot dogs and ice cream i think it's like 50 cents for a hot dog the last time i went here let's go through the parking lot hopefully i don't lose signal in here it's a dollar for the frozen yogurts that snow dove yeah i think um also on the weekends if you take the ferry here from lower manhattan it's free [Music] i don't remember the last time i biked through an indoor parking lot like this we'll just follow the exit signs i guess actually let's go over here this is kind of neat there's plenty of parking in the ikea parking lot if you want to come here also uh red hook's got a nice outdoor area all right where is this now i don't think i'm supposed to be here because the construction site is right past this way but maybe it's a good spot for me to stop and read what people are typing [Music] out and about saying the ikea in toronto has a shuttle services ikea provide a shuttle service uh i think they do but i'm not sure if they stopped it from downtown brooklyn i know there's a shuttle service from the subway trains there a day saying ikea has nice hot dogs and meatballs very very good hot dogs and meatballs and um i think that meatball dish is something uh really inexpensive like five bucks or something for swedish meatballs really awesome john i'm not riding an e-bike i'm riding a single speed bike speaking of food now that we're talking about it i might as well have some food right now i'll rest my bike along this container here and i'll have a little bit of a snack while i recharge um i'm having a energy bar cliff bar it's a chocolate chip peanut crunch flavor i don't have a bike lock on me so i won't be able to go into ikea for that food surya is saying there's a ikea in india as well so this is a pov cliff bar energy bar eating session [Music] so thank you robert liz saying never leave home without a bike lock um i could have brought a bike lock but it would have been too much to carry for this bag here and the way um new york city bike these are they're very brazen and very quick so [Music] pov hfr saying a pov eating section yeah anything you try to eat healthy but it's hard it is i mean our world is full of like tempting sweets like cinnabons sugar yogurt ice cream it's hard to ignore all that stuff sometimes so maxine's saying they're making a lot of noise yeah very true [Music] i know right it's a nice location to eat right next to construction noise perfect ambiance right very fitting for new york city yeah peter yogurt was a bad example i should have left yogurt out of it i was thinking in the lines of ice cream and i grouped in yoga with it but yogurt is healthy it's good for your digestive system ziggy you're eight feet to my west right now [Music] you just say hi i'm here eating [Music] all right let me um get some water yeah the ferry's free to ikea on the weekends when you're down an energy bar like that you need water [Music] i don't see ziggy though he says he's eight feet to my west huh eight feet will be uh very visible to me right now looks like my live stream on the phone is a little bit delayed [Music] yeah i don't see ziggy maybe if i'm riding my bike again through the parking lot i'll see him all right let's uh continue our ride let me see what time it is it's uh 2 36 still early in the day i have some ideas of where i want to go all right [Applause] [Music] ziggy's in the white sedan [Music] what all right i don't see any white sedans around here [Music] but i'll just ride my bike out of here wait is that ziggy over there and the honda are you ziggy nope he's not ziggy otherwise he would have known that's definitely someone might be playing with me too i don't like it when that happens uh let's go this way i don't want to go to the end of the basin here so all right so my plan right now is to get out of red hook maybe we'll head into uh carol gardens all right there's bay streets let me see if i can remember how to get out of red hook by myself let's see if oh there's columbia street let's see if uh the cops were able to get into their car they broke into their own car that was pretty funny seeing that before yeah i don't see the cops here anymore that was pretty funny so the next block is where we saw the fire department trying to break into the police department's car they're not here anymore that's not the first time i saw the fire department helping someone get into their car i think the last time they used like a special tool and they were able to like lodge the hook into the door handle and open the door it takes a while but they get the job done here's defonte's sandwich shop again do not enter so force the maker right here well i'm not really a fan of the roads coming up here what i'll do is i'll take this overpass i think i think this heads into like the gowanus expressway and third avenue and i don't want to go there see if i can make it up this ramp yeah it's going to be a little bit steep so just walk it up zap you locked yourself out and you left the keys in the car i mean it can happen to anyone i remember riding my bike over here [Music] in order to uh complete the five borough bike tour the gowanus expressway that was one of the highlights uh cafe logos i don't have a mountain bike anymore i used to all right i think we could get on the bike now all right wait a second i gotta go back to this busy street again all right forget this i'm just gonna hop the sidewalk go one block and then up this street here ziggy uh gave me a 499 super chat you're just playing what you had great videos thank you ziggy appreciate it i was trying to look for you in the parking lot but you weren't there i kind of figured it out later i was like wait a second eight feet i should be able to see you all right all right so let's head over to car coming all right i think i'm gonna need to check directions because this part of brooklyn i'm not really too familiar with all right i can go to smith and then head over to [Music] yeah go to smith and then heading to carol gardens that way yeah but basically i am in cowell gardens all right thank you it's nice for the driver to let me go like that hey there's the subway i think that's the f train and here is court street course street one of the main streets in carroll gardens left turn on smith thank you carl howe if there's a part of brooklyn you're not too familiar with nothing will help you become more quickly acquainted in the area than money i don't get how that's supposed to get me more acquainted with the area but thank you for the super chat so you know the area or you don't or you're not so familiar with it michelle's saying hi from tampa florida i'm doing an awesome job with all the traveling appreciate it thank [Music] you so it looks like i'm uh going to be heading right into downtown brooklyn looks like this building is going to be demolished yeah demolition these brothers auto body repair this building's going to go bye-bye here's the carroll street subway station yeah joseph those electric scooters do travel fast absolutely the one that i own goes up to 18.6 miles an hour wow carol gardens is blooming right now really cool look like that woman dropped their airpod or something [Music] i haven't tried many of these places before there's the best mexican food truck to my left wood burning brick oven pizza very nice laura you're enjoying this ride rss thank you so much for the 2 euro appreciate it very much i see the skyline of downtown brooklyn coming up man there's so many restaurants here thai ism malai ice cream this is also a restaurant but it doesn't seem to be open right now here's where things might get a little iffy cycling into downtown brooklyn [Applause] it gets very busy here uh there's a double park car in the bike lane there's definitely not enough space to go there but i can't squeeze it from here and we have no choice but to wait thank you ziggy can i yell the abcs that would be awesome but if not good i guess what is that for me abc's i guess i yelled it but not really sure the context what is going on here just taking things a little bit more careful here man it's busier here in carroll gardens and downtown brooklyn and it is in manhattan i just came from like the east village and chinatown and it's so much busier here arnold was saying big traffic jam and ignorant car drivers that's why uh that's why i like riding my bike because you have a lot of maneuverability you can get past a lot of these traffic jams if you're careful look at this guy he's so confused that cyclists up the head he just beeped at him and he's still standing in the bike lane like shaking his head like what what am i doing wrong no awareness whatsoever there's atlantic avenue i was surprised yeah i think this bike lane is near this thing used to be here once i get past fulton street smith street turns into jay michelle's saying looks like i'm having a great bike ride today it's wonderful it's a good time to go cycling how's the wind asking sugar shack 74. it's not bad very breezy but i would say the wind doesn't really get much more than like five six miles an hour all right here we are middle of downtown brooklyn there's the bike lane to the right but there's a guy holding up the screen and looks like it's gonna be busy there so i'm just gonna take this lane anyone inside the myrtle promenade nope and what then with this bike lane you gotta deal with all the buses so it's not the most ideal bike lane but at least it's functional all right how's that for beating traffic [Music] nicole asked me if i know the bus stops on the route no i don't [Music] by yarn asking if i could sing oh no that's uh michelle thinking i should sing the alphabet but by john's asking if i recommend living in new york and what part yeah i would recommend it for certain kinds of people i think people who like want to build a career here is good i think people will want to like have a lot of social events it's good but maybe not for people who want to retire that's why a lot of people when they get older they don't live in new york they move away or people want to settle maybe that's not for them but i'm just doing a lot of generalizations new york is requires a certain kind of person i think as far as where to live that all depends on the person i mean some people if they want attention you live in soho you live in greenwich village but feel a little more quiet like family environments you can live in the outskirts of the outer boroughs and be a little more quiet so where i'm gonna go now is the manhattan bridge and we're gonna head into manhattan again so we roll the manhattan uh brooklyn bridge and we're gonna ride the manhattan dan's from glasgow scotland uk soon relocating to new york oh man man good luck to you that's a very impressive undertaking to do that here's the exit ramp for the brooklyn queens expressway can get crazy here so this bike path is where i'm going to be riding on not not on this side though this is the pedestrian side that city bike's got squeaky brakes you're hearing a lot of train noise now i'm standing on my bike in order to get up this hill it's a little bit steep but definitely manageable i don't think we'll be hearing uh too many trains if at all crossing over because the d train is not running in manhattan today or going over the bridge or doing track work i think there's an mta worker already so the subways are really going to be more heard on the other side of the bridge the broadway line now the two bridges i prefer the brooklyn bridge to cross over just because it's a little bit more safe there's better lines of sight there's a lot of blind spots on the manhattan bridge which make it dangerous because people don't know how to ride correctly at least with the brooklyn bridge you have some control [Applause] nina's saying next stop for drinking water i could drink water right now i can do both these two are three people a color coordinated with the same jersey you know i'm almost out of my first water bottle that's where i have the second one see dumbo right below me that's actually a pretty good view wow there's a lot of construction work happening on the manhattan bridge from my understanding this bridge takes a big beating from all the subways that run across it they have two pairs of tracks on either side of the bridge it's a lot of maintenance randall lane barley thank you for 99 cents super chat appreciate it i hear a subway already but i think that's from the williamsburg old school firewood 4.99 thank you all right it's a little tricky to pass people here sometimes is you got to make sure the other side is completely clear before you do so all right i see the lower east side in front of me two bridges neighborhood as well and this bridge is gonna dump us right into chinatown that person's got the electric bike got a super chat from the dairy bomb thank you so much for a three hour super shot and elm er and leia thank you so much for 9.99 appreciate it all right it's all downhill now doesn't mean i could be reckless though still gotta be careful [Music] so got some big bumps on this bridge that guy said i said move back now here's the blind corner which i absolutely hate someone behind me is holding up speed i think i got i'm extra careful over here all right here we are chinatown new york all right how was that huh all right so uh i do want to get to the west side i'm trying to think if i should take broome street or continue on let's get away from this music i don't need youtube copyright complaints i actually think canal street might be my best bet for going west so let's go for it might have to do some uh lane passing here very carefully though actually the traffic's flowing pretty well here not bad this is very doable up red light right out in march street yeah i do need some kind of video stabilization on my bike it's this chest mount doesn't really just by itself doesn't really do a good job with the bounces so i like this big truck a lot it actually makes me go faster because it's blocking all the wind [Music] up it's slowing up now let's split the lane don't do this unless you're used to it especially if you're claustrophobic fluffy now the traffic's building up because of the holland tunnels in new jersey i think it might be better for me to go on that left wing but i'm not fighting this truck here letting it go first [Music] right let's go right down the middle anyone coming nope i think we're good now let's move over i'm keeping up with all the traffic now it's pretty good all right so these people are going into the tunnel that's not where i'm going [Music] so looks like i'm stuck here until all the cars go back actually probably better to walk it across the street and then cross this way thank you michelle 210 for a five dollar super chat appreciate it [Music] liz is asking what bike do i have i have a single speed mercier kilo wt from bikes direct [Music] [Music] it sucks that there's really no direct way to get to the west side from the manhattan bridge canal street is the most direct so some potholes here these need to be filled in is and the hudson river greenway is up ahead rk516 say i'm blowing through red lights well it is a social norm for the cyclists and others low speed methods of transportation to go through red lights as long as it's clear and you're not getting hit by a car people do it all the time it's not really enforced that much the same as jaywalking it's also against the law to have an ice cream cone in your pocket but we all know how often that law is enforced too okay we are going shortcut i want to see the progress on the new uh pier that's going up there's a tennis match going on in my left here let's see yeah this is uh one of my favorite pipelines in the city the hudson river greenway it's gorgeous to see all these flowers blooming here these tulips don't even look like they're open yet but once they open they're going to be really nice these are nice here all these daffodils are bloomed there's some tulips in this flower garden too but they're not open yet i think the new um the new park is coming up soon it's right next to the whitney museum i don't mind going to speed right now relaxing i can look down the chat everywhere and then nicole's fox can i go to a different borough on my bike without using the subway yes i just travel from brooklyn to manhattan and i can even go from manhattan to the bronx manhattan to queens but the only burrow you can't go to from another borough directly is staten island unless you use the boat the other way is to travel into new jersey with the george washington bridge and then using the bayonne bridge the gothel's bridge and the outer bridge crossing those are the only three land connections with staten island where you can ride the bike across on monday i passed the chelsea piers no it's coming up right now all right so that's the whitney museum of american art there and this used to be the um sanitation garage they're actively redoing now into another public park lots of cranes there to my left and this is the new park they're building it's actually looking very good right now i think it's going to open in the fall of 2021 but this one's gonna have a beach over here too but you can't swim in it it's also a landscape very strangely it's like on a curve david finzee two dollars you're convinced it'll open soon in june or july we'll see i mean it almost looks like it's done now really as long as it's safe to open then i'm all for it it's called the little island nyc i just read it [Music] for those of you asking about the chelsea piers it's right up here you can see the driving range here to play golf on chelsea piers there's also a hockey rink and ice skating rink over here as well you can get some cruises to go places [Applause] there's also a bowling alley in here too nicole you love playing golf in tennis it's a really different activity for those uh who want different things golf is a little more passive than tennis tennis you're always running around david two dollars [Applause] thank you so much there's some sweets and tires there i don't know what that was about so we just rode around the chelsea piers building got some more daffodils room in here you know what i want to check out i want to check out hudson yards i think you can get onto the actual hudson yards area if you go on 11th avenue downtown but i'd like to ride through hudson yards once i don't think i've ever done it before i'm gonna have to probably pass hudson yards maybe on like 38th street and then come down um there's hudson yards to my right you can actually see the high line from here as well you know i think i could even go on 34th street and then head south i'll be able to get in that way adventures in moderate foreign thank you so much five bucks is that camera have image symbolization no i don't think this phone does my chest now it's just a simple chestnut there's no uh gimbal on it all right we're gonna make a right over here also i think it will give me a good opportunity to check my battery level on this camera i've been live for two hours and 28 minutes i think the battery may die out soon so let me poke up a charger i'm going to wait until the light changes when i cross over the street first i do it let me see if i could do it now if the cable's on top then i can just grab it yeah all right i got the cable out but now the light changed all right let's hook up the charger cable so i don't end the live stream inadvertently thank you dairy bomb well one world trade looks beautiful it does i'm gonna have more wire sticking out of me now just what i need all right super charger connected [Music] i can unhook my iphone cable now because i found my chat phone runs out of battery more than the streaming phone and we are good now all right here's the jacob javits center to my left he was saying i missed your five hours oh i apologize for that couldn't see everything but thank you so much for that dollars all right hudson yards right here let's uh ride my bike right up to the entrance all right red light let me scroll up and look with david's super chat right that chinese food in the usa are all chinese american not authentic chinese food italian food here is mostly americanized or sicily it really depends no doubt the united states had an impact on chinese food but it's not all like that let's put it across anyone coming nope and i just went through a red light again but for me that's okay as long as i don't get hit no one else gets hit we're good oh wait oh this is the equinox hotel entrance no way i don't want to go here [Music] there's the other entrance here here we go i can make a left here hudson boulevard east this is really neat aka the area where

this got me here all the way from brooklyn with my own two feet saying i should go to the edge yeah the edge is right here all the way at the top well the vessel is still closed sadly because oops because many people here committed suicide and took their lives it's very sad [Music] john asking do you do they let you inside walking the bike i don't think they will and i don't care to try oh no i should go visit pier 86 the aircraft carrier thing oh um you mean the uss intrepid museum yeah that's uh near 42nd street yeah ali bhg they were recents i think there were like five people at least who took their lives here but i'm glad i got to experience it before it was shut down where i would live monique towns five bucks hello action kane you gave me you give multitasking a new hit me please be safe thank you busy here in hudson yards but uh downtown brooklyn kabul hill and carroll gardens no i didn't go to cabo hill carroll gardens was much more busy david two bucks sadly lasting i ate out before new york city lockdown oh no deaf rockers say you went there last summer security guard someone jumped off the vessel it's sad really sad [Music] [Music] let's take a look at 11th avenue towards the hudson river robert says you think the vessel looks cool it is i think it's a cool place that would have just been awesome i don't know ask if i want to do a video there at pier 86 um i think i'm done with the hudson river greenway today i'm gonna head right into midtown after this [Music] [Music] i keep getting my cord stuck at my bike and then it unbalances the whole setup pov saying is one of the areas in new york that sets apart from all the other areas for sure for sure [Music] that is pretty cool someone going there jumping picturing looks pretty dumb when people do it but the picture turns out incredible [Music] look at how dedicated this photographer is people get into all kinds of positions in order to take the perfect photo liz saying dumber still yeah more silly than dumb i think this pigeon has blinders on didn't see me [Music] david finzee five bucks a friend of mine was leaving back with china you brought him here to the vessel back in january luckily he got to see it right before he left oh good i hope he was able to walk inside the vessel too that's a really cool spot i made several videos inside the vessel i think i even went there during opening day this side over here is less crowded but you can still get a good picture angle from this side [Music] i thought that there would be another name for this thing but the vessel has been the name for i think close to two years now so maybe the vessel is gonna stick also i think this building here the scaffolding came off this is the equinox hotel let's actually walk on that side of the street i'd like to look inside the windows and see what the equinox hotel lobby looks like [Music] yeah michelle i hope they do that too that they make the vessel more safe i always thought when the vessel opened up that people taking their lives it was going to be an issue it was just a matter of time oh man i gotta go around there's no ramp here columbia university graduate the wind is hired after kids let's see if i can get around this way excuse me let me observe two of those let's take a look at the equinox hotel also soul cycle has a place here [Music] david finzee two dollars he didn't either because he didn't want or close oh that's the entertainer i don't think i've been on this side this is all new [Music] so so soul cycle and equinox hotel looks very modern many shiny uh very shiny in there many shiny starting to sound like gollum from lore of the rings oh there's too much glare here you can't really see too much [Music] way too much glare yeah sue's me it does seem like it costs a lot to stay here [Music] so [Music] it's 700 at night to stay there that's absolutely so much money it's a lot of money let's stay there sounds like there's a dj remixing the entertainer song i don't really know if i agree with that [Music] warren vine with two dollars canadian i was first here when i visited anime new york at the javits center awesome man i missed the anime conventions at the java center comic con 2. it was fun to come by and see what people were wearing you didn't even have to pay for a ticket you can just come around this area and see everyone dressed up we could welcome commuter in the house recorded 2019 one little did it no be the last oh yeah i miss it there's plenty of sweets here and things to eat from the carts there's 34th street hudson yards subway station if there's this many people here in hudson yards i wonder how times square is doing maybe i'll head over there i think at times square i'll end the live stream that'll be a good place to uh end off man look at all this construction going on in hudson yards it doesn't stop this building here looks like it's ready luxury rentals hudson36.com and then this one here [Music] william's saying they put down the new lawn at bryant park oh they did already that was quick that was super quick abdullah you want to see the lawn you know what let's hop on the bike and head over

to bryant park and then times square that's another oddity of new york city they call those properties holdouts by the way because they don't give up their property when there's a large development or something oh i can't go up there looks like i have to go across 38th street which is fine by me oh neat there's a bike lane here but it's not going to be any use for me here with these auto body shops blocking it i don't think i've ever been on the street before it's the odd street henry hall dhl auto body shops very strange indeed tommy two guns saying it's a great street no traffic it is i like it [Music] laurie you're glad to see the older building not to or down it's worn down it adds some character it does it shows the contrast between the old and the new this block it shows you a glimpse of what this area used to look like dean you used to live on the street oh goodness you've also seen all the changes [Music] uh this street is 38th street hook and ladder 21 to my right looks like there's construction in the bike lane up ahead i'm gonna have to uh merge in [Music] you love manhattan how it was in the 90s scenario one-on-one that you're saying it's inspiring as you're going on a long bike ride tomorrow it's been a while since i busted out the bike it feels nice to do it i wish there was a way i could uh stabilize the footage a little bit better all right let's go i need to stop because my charging cable got caught on my pedals that would have been dangerous this needs to be secured that was almost a spill all right we should be good now also i gotta lift this up just a little bit more all right left turn on ethan man 8th avenue is busy this is the area right around the port authority i don't think i see this many people here goodness uncle ollie thank you for 4.99 great walk and ride appreciate it very much foreign calvin likes the walking more i like it more because i'm able to interact with people easier but i miss the bike because it covers a larger distance you got to see more on a bike uh oh bumpy roads by the port authority who would have guessed [Music] okay we have the light here we'll just cross with the pedestrians because i need to go on to 40 seconds all right we are going in the bus only what is here it is folks times square welcome to times square applebee's dave and busters ripley's believe it or not madame tussauds wax museum i smell

door why not right all right okay goal going up again this is oops i didn't want that to happen press the button by accident all right here we go laurie needs a new watch while you're just in luck beautiful wash of displays all right bryant park and then i'm heading into times square 42nd street and 6th ave feels like i need to adjust my gimbal a little bit it's a little bit shaky i'm gonna enter bryant park from this side the stairs are a little bit less steep i can just roll my bike up all right let me adjust this excuse me while i move this over a little bit let's see how this does no problem with my bike those short steps man that was quick the lawn is already up the last time i came here they were at they had construction materials everywhere wow look at this this is brand new too they have these like springtime vendors i don't think i've seen this before that's why they kept up the uh the shacks this is a great idea to bring more business to bryant park because this used to be the winter village and now they changed it into like a springtime i'm a gaming guy at five bucks 143 11th ave nyc if you're ever near the large skatepark they have there you might like it all right look at this plant basedness [Music] i sure covered a lot of ground today hitting many of the major sites nice and fly something tells me they might have something for the summer as well

i got so many colorful socks all right we're going to times square [Music] now [Music] actually let's go this way we'll walk this way towards the bathroom area because there's a ramp there it'll be a little bit easier for me to get my bike down [Music] i was wondering why the winter village the bryant park winter village was not completely taken down and it was well into april now i know the reason because they're making this maybe into a year-round who's gonna win we'll watch he tries planning monday plans hang up wow he actually returned that that's slammed that's nice glad i won't do this oh i shouldn't be showing that jape asked asking if there's any sports stadium close to me the closest is madison square garden [Music] oh look waffles and zingers is there bun ramen's also there and there's also a korean place next to it [Music] all right so i'm going to point the camera upward i don't want to stream the bathroom bryant park restroom very popular space i'm just going to walk to times square because it's only a block away it'll be a nice walk anyway this dawn cable keeps getting stuck [Music] [Music] by the way um i don't know if people know this but the mta who runs the subway system they're in the process of redeveloping the 42nd street corridor and uh when it's finished there's going to be a free transfer between the 42nd street bryant park station and the time square station so that's going to be awesome when it's finished you can transfer between the orange lines and the rest of the lines at um at times square when that's done and uh if you want you could also transfer between the 7 train at 42nd street and the 7 train at 5th avenue the same train line [Music] but that uh project started last year i think they're still working on the the thing right now the tunnel good here's the bank of america tower this tower is famous by the way for being like super efficient and green energy like it generates its own heat and electricity now let's cross the street here so i don't have to cross over later [Music] [Music] robert parker saying the completion day is in 2030 for the uh the transfer between bryant park and times square that's a long time long time nick's saying the tourist butts are out really cool nice to see the map now at least it's going to be completed eventually [Music] sample of that [Music] savannah vlog is in the house saying hi
