Vic Morrow, Stanley Kubrick, George A. Romero, Irene Cara, Sherri Lewis, Shirley Ellis, Bobby Darin, Ed Kranepool..... Yup, all those famous folks came from The Bronx!❤
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.
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!
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
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
Thank you for your feedback! Based on my research, I chose to represent the area you refer to as "Allerton" as the more specific subsections of "Bronxwood," "Olinville," and "Laconia." If I were to revise my maps, how would you define Allerton's boundaries? Also, in your opinion, what would make its inclusion more precise than my current maps which separate it into those two neighborhoods I mentioned above? I appreciate any feedback you can provide. Thanks! The map can be found here: www.cityneighborhoods.nyc/the-bronx-neighborhoods
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.

What was the name of the project on the same block and side of the old Our Lady of Victory Church in 1973? It is torn down now.

The best for Throggs Neck is the post office? Houses are ON the water but let's take a look at the post office.

What happened to St Mary’s park? Next time
I have not yet toured every corner of the outer boroughs. But getting to all of the parks is definitely on the to-do list!

East Tremont goes all the way up...
You could have done a little better here with the comment.
The critique goes no where. 😝

I hope I never have to go to NY or California
You're entitled to your opinion, of course. But rest assured, NYC will do just fine in your absence. 😁
We don't want your hateful a.ss here anyway.
With all New York men coming across gay how can I identify actual gay New Yorkers?
Why not head to the Bronx and ask in person? I'm sure the responses will be ... indelible.
