      Hey John. I'm looking to take that ferry from pier 11 to Dumbo next Friday. I don't see it as a final destination so I'm wondering what ferry it is exactly and do I need to buy tickets in advance? Thanks John, my wife and I love your videos.

      dotry22 hi - did this 2 days ago very easy , app called nyc ferry has maps and you can pre purchase tickets which you activate a few minutes before you board all on your phone, it’s very quick to dumbo and the pier at dumbo is perfectly situated for everything hope that helps

    My wedding dinner took place at Celestine. As I have commented before, I am a born and raised Midwesterner. Anyways, long story short, the original restaurant I wanted to book my post wedding dinner at was not available. I stumbled across a restaurant called Celestine, which is located in DUMBO. It was the biggest blessing in disguise having that first restaurant fall through because the views in DUMBO and the views from that restaurant were breathtaking. This video brought me back to my special day! I can’t wait to go back. Thank you as always for your incredible videos!

    Great great great video Jon! One of the best guides I've seen from you. The quality of the tips is always top notch, mixing trendy and less famous things to do, some history bites, but I really loved the structure you gave, the dynamic between head shots, b-rolls, vlog style clips. Plus of course, someone gave you a hand with filming... :)

They loved DUMBO and Chelsea Markets so if it wasn't for your videos they wouldn't have experienced these places!

  • @rca6576

    I love these videos. I've been to NYC nine times. Then the pandemic hit and that was that. I live in Canada now and it's only a five-hour drive to NYC from my house (yes, I mapped it) However, I usually fly into Newark. I still have not managed to walk every neighborhood as I'd like to. Honestly, you can go to NYC and spend a lot of money but, you do not have to! So much is going on that just pick a neighborhood, walk through it all day, take a break in a park and take a chance on all the food that's available and talk to people. It's just magic!!!!! Since this pandemic hit and I have not been able to go I think my next trip needs to be an extended Airbnb. Maybe a month. I miss you NYC!! Thanks for the videos. They go more into depth and are more locally focused on the different areas than just "Here's ten tourist things" videos do.

      The Timeout Market reminded me of the various East Atlanta diaries, Auburn Ave Market and city markets (Ponce City Market and Marietta City Marketplace) in metro Atlanta. I loved DUMBO!! When I become a millionaire, I’ll live in DUMBO to be near my grands in the summer and head south for the winter. Originally from Michigan and the Great Lakes lake effect has ruined my ability to survive in freezing weather.

    I've only been there once,, although I grew up in Brooklyn. When I was growing up there, I think the only reason to be there was if you worked for Con Ed. You've really made me want to go back for a photo odyssey. One thing I do remember from my visit (about ten years ago) is that most of the residents must have pets, ,because I saw three pet stores within about two blocks.

    Hey John! This is George, we have met once or twice before and I love all of your videos!!... But I just want to say I have a true confession... I have lived in NYC for 20 years and have never been to DUMBO!! Lately I have been exploring different parts of the city, mostly the Lower East Side, Williamsburg, Hudson Yards, West Village etc... And of course all of my outings turn into a photo shoot of architecture, street art, and street life during the pandemic. Since I live in the East Village and don't like to ride the train too much or go too far away, I am really getting bored and must have walked down every single street around here a million times... I really need a new neighborhood to check out.... Anyway.. Long story short... Just before I went to bed last night I watched this video and I was so impressed and loved your commentary that today I just had to check it out for myself! Wow!! This is the most beautiful place in NYC and already my favorite hood! I had such an awesome day walking around, photographing and of course relaxing and enjoying the stunning views of our city! I can't wait until we are all back to normal so I can enjoy all of the nearby indoor markets, museums, ride the carousel, and go to Jacques Torres!! Thank you so much for this video, or rather giving me the inspiration to finally check out this amazing area that again, I cannot believe in all the years that I lived here have never been to before!! Anyway looking forward to your next video... Stay safe and sane and send my love to Adriana! All the Best, George
