It's a bit confusing because the sign behind it says 30 St without the "th", and the first St for 31st Street should be closer to the 31 to indicate that it belongs to the number.
@@ActionKid Actually you're right. Since they put 31 st St, then they should have put 30 th St. Sounds like the Streets and Transportation Department is not too terribly organized. Once again, thank you for sharing New York City with all of us.
You walked right by my old block in Cliffside! It's definitely changed the last 10 years wow. A lot of new buildings and shops, but there's also a lot of the old too. Millers bakery, Rudy's, Vincent's. They have all been there for decades. Thanks for the nostalgia!
ActionKid, my fellow walker and honored companion, I am happy to once more make my way over to your channel and witness a great walking tour with you, my friend. Keep up the great work.
I’m from Chgo but I agree . The view from N.J. beats all other views of Manhattan. Rt3 into the helix to the Lincoln Tunnel affords one of the best views.
Thanks for for walking around my old neighborhood of Gutenberg and beyond. You need to go around the lake at that park. It’s truly something to see. Stay safe!
Hello ActionKid, You're doing a great job on your city tours plus you have a lovely speaking voice (at least for women) very relaxing and masculine, FYI, there was NO typo on 31 st Street - in fact, it was not clear because there were 2 abbreviations 31, the first (st) was thirty-first, and the second ST was indeed the abbreviation for Street. Thanks and keep at it. Happy 2021!
Last time I crossed the GW Bridge was in 1955. There were no tall bldgs at that time. Never was in West New York that I can remember but as a kid there was a little human interest story about a WW 2 vet who joined the National Guard and then in the course of getting set up in civilian life he forgot all about the Guard until the State of NJ arrested him for failure to attend drills. They later dropped the charges and that was his final experience with the NG. Apropo Union City and Weehawken, I would park in one of those areas and catch the bus into Port Authority. It was great walking this tour, I was surprised to see Turkish restaurants in the area. Living in Germany, we have a batch of Turkish businesses here. Love watching these videos and getting appropriately homesick. Keep 'em coming.
It's a bit confusing because the sign behind it says 30 St without the "th", and the first St for 31st Street should be closer to the 31 to indicate that it belongs to the number.
1:07:16 Union City is a merge of Union Hill and West Hoboken. Twin City. The Ave is named Bergenline because of the train line that used to run through it. It was called the Bergen Line so the name of the Ave became Bergenline Ave. 1:07:49. Good food actually.
I used to live in Union city and buy in Berger line but too many old buildings ugly apt and expensive like a new building. For that I move out but good mayor. Hudson county is for people from New York City to live. And the rents are in high and the devolves are buying the buildings destroyed and built condo for the well off from New York City replacing the locals even the landlords remodel the apt and sell to people who are wealthy.😭😭😭😭😭😡
I grew up on 37th St. You left Union City into Weehawken @7:00 crossing Park Ave. (Pleasant Ave. is just an arm by Harbor View Apts. & under Rt. 495 to Lincoln Tunnel.) Instead of going right on Jefferson, staying north on Park would have brought you to the old red-brick water tower, a Italian design, & from there go east to Hamilton area. [At the top of Jefferson St. stairs, a few yards south is an old sundial.] @18:05 [you, "OK"] you missed the bust/plaque of Hamilton Duel Site just a few feet south! [Tiny dot on other side of fence by two pedestrians.] "Boulevard East" is the old/common name for "JFK Blvd. East" & parallel to it, back in Union City, is (JF)Kennedy Blvd (formerly Hudson Blvd.) The one by "the cliffs" is Blvd. East. [Highwood connected to Park Ave.] @41:00 you are not crossing into Union City; it's all Weehawken east of Park Ave. Also the *exact* site of Hamilton's duel (on a 'shelf' along the cliffs) isn't known; probably altered by old RR tracks (pre-lite rail) years ago, but the rock his rested on is the base for the plaque & bust BACK when you first made sight of the river.
My sister lived in Hackensa k, NJ, and the bus that brought me there went through Lodi. Lots of hill! I know you made it back because I know you made videos since. Yes, the homes are old and classic and look like a renovation dream for updating. The views are stupendous at Hamilton Park.
I usually watch your walks on mute with music while working out. But lately I've been watching at other moments and listening to your audio. It's great! Today I learned what stream sniping means.
Originally this area used to be a borough of New York City, hence the reason there is a West New York. 59:50 East New York in Brooklyn. Eventually it became part of New Jersey but this is the only part of New Jersey that looks like NY borough. West New York actually starts half way through 49th St.
Absolutely correct. Cubans are almost non existent now (although there are still a few). Union City is now mostly Dominican and Ecuadorian. Elsewhere uptown there are mostly Central Americans, Colombians and Mexicans. 54:44. The best food here is now Colombian food. Cuban food is down on River Road.
Nice to see this part of New Jersey. Have you ever been, to Montclair NJ, on Upper Mountain Street, you ‘ ll have an astonishing view of NYC skyline. 🙌🏼
Used to go to the Burlesque at the Hudson theater in Union City durng the 40's. It was barred in NY, but it was great fun in New Jersey. . Just A bus ride from Manhattan, the comedians, the chorus girls. (Some fat some not so beautiful but all working hard) and the candy butchers going through the audience during intermission. Selling candy with the promise of a genuine watch with a genuine pig skin watch band for only a quarter. Great fun when your a teenager. Oh, and almost forgot, the strippers.
Watching June 2023 from New Zealand. Im impressed with New York your walks are amazing and inspiring, defintely staying in our stopover to Scotland. But man Hamilton park views are something else so cool. Thanks Actionkid
Me, yet again!! 😜 Union City reminds me of Salem Point, my favorite neighborhood in Salem, MA, that is primarily Puerto Rican. The businesses are Latino owned and operated, and most all of the residents are bilingual and speak English more clearly than the natives because their speech is absent of the Bostonese accent that blurs and obliterates the English language!! 😂😂😂 A close friend and coworker of mine who was a native of Puerto Rico lived in "the Point," so I had the good fortune of spending a lot of time there. This was nearly 40 years ago when I lived in my home state of MA. I still stay connected to my home state, and today, the Point neighborhood has made some improvements and advancements in terms of community support and services as well as children's programs. I felt compelled to share this info after taking your fascinating tour of Union City.
Amazing walk. You missed the duel site by about 30 feet. And there is a road that goes under the GW right down to the river. You would have been under the bridge and right on the shoreline of the river. But, that was amazing. Come back to Jersey soon, there is a lot more to see!!!
ActionKid, what are your thoughts on the DJI Pocket 2, I'm in Australia... love your vids. Have a gopro 8 and thinking of adding the DJI Pocket 2... thanks in advance.
They have a lot of old colonial homes in New Jersey. I look that view of New York from that park. It's beautiful. Wow! It is breath taking. If I live there I would be in that park looking at Manhattan skyline and walking that park. That staircase I don't think so. Action Kid you did good to challenge the staircase. I commend you because you're in shape to me. I think you're the best tour guide I've seen in a long time.
Yet another epic walk! That stair climb was insane!!! 😮. It must of been around 150 feet high? 😫... Narrow streets and sidewalks/pavements?.... like being in the UK! 😁 😂
Awesome Walkabout!!! Excellent job, esp. since you were never here before!!! Thank You! Should have stayed and not turned on Park, though, as you missed a bunch of other things, though, you can't do everything, I guess...But where you first got lost, in the "Bluff", by Blvd East, you made all the right moves!!! You're were mostly, literally on the Atlantic Palisades, the very Eastern edge of the North American Continent.
Nice job very interesting. I have been to NYC a few times and although embarrassed to admit it this part of NJ is my entrance or exit from the city. I was impressed by the cleanliness and lack of graffiti in the area as well as great streets and boulevards with what looks like thriving independently owned businesses as well as beautiful homes .Thank You
I was in Union City in 2016 and I stayed at the Explore Hotel and Hostel 38th St. it took me around 15 minutes to walk to the waterfront over looking Manhattan very nice place.
I went to High School in Fort Lee from 1985-1988. Been in those areas many times in the past on the Jitneys from Journal Square to the GWB Bus Station. Fort Lee is very personal to me.
Thank you so much for this video. I grew up in Union City. I actually saw, on 42nd street, Casa Hijos de Camajuaní. We used to go there; we are Cuban-Americans and that was like a club for folks from our hometown. Then, when you were walking north on Bergerline Ave and stopped to use gel, you actually stopped in front of a store where my uncle had his store. Thanks again, take care and be safe!
Ohhhh, kiddo!! I watched you climb that staircase and was out of breath on the fifth set of stairs just sitting on much couch!! 😂😂😂 Nothing can more remind you of your age than watching someone young handle a challenging staircase!! 😂😂😂 This was such a fresh, exciting tour, beautiful scenery, breathtaking view of the NYC skyline!! Can't help but think how rather strange it looks without the Twin Towers looming over everything. I never especially cared for the Towers to begin with because they were too imposing, obliterating the rest of the skyline; yet watching them being destroyed was like watching two old friends being murdered in cold blood. Anyway, those beautiful old homes remind me of those right here in St Paul, on Cathedral, Ramsey and Crocus Hills. But I loved even more touring Union City - more urban, right up my alley!!
Funny story, I walked from Union City to Fairview NJ, I went into a convenience store to buy a bottle of water. I got talking to the store owner and she told me that her daughter went to Georgian College in Barrie, Ontario, Canada where I live. I could believe it, so funny!!
First and only time I was in NYC and we stayed in an airBB on Jefferson St where those stairs are. You walked right by the place. Cheers from Ottawa, Canada.
What an amazing journey you shared .The video was so sharp loved every minute, I actually watched 2 1/2 hrs. Washington bridge 🌉 never seen it before Thankyou 😊
Watching from Ireland 😉, Some of the streets look, So much like the streets in, Dublin city, You sound like a grand , Chap, keep the videos coming, Great stuff 😀😀😀.
That was not a typo it's pronounce THIRTY FIRST STREET , abbreviation of firST .. is st . So it's not 31 St ST , it is 31st Street .... the st is American abbreviation for first or. 1st lol great content
ActionKid just taught us that if you want to see NYC, then you have to go to New Jersey. I look forward to the day when you have MILLIONS of followers !!! Great 👍 job once again !!!
I grew up in Bergen Co. but worked in NYC. I live in Cape May now. You should consider taking a day trip down to Cape May at the very tip of NJ. Wildwood is close by. You'd have Lot's to film down here!
Hi , where you are taking a break drinking water is the condo on 770 Anderson avenue it’s called The Greenhouse .We used to own an apt there on 21st floor with views of from St. John de Devine all the way to Empire State Building that was early 90’s.
Hi ActionKid when I was visiting Union City in 2016, I wanted to walk down those stairs 30:22 but the gate was locked due to Un Safe Stairs in need of repairs. Was there in total of 546 stairs or more stairs? So how many stairs were there, you are not going to tell us!
I was just watching your video and to correct what you said about the typo on the street sign is actually correct, 31st = ( Thirty first) St. = (Street)
Hello new to your. Channel love your videos and love the fact that you shows us new things to go and do I am looking forward to coming to New york thank you
Hey actionkid. First off, I love what you do. I been watching you since right before 2020. Secoundly, I think you would enjoy a app called Museo. You can take pics of the awesome murals you see like at 7:40 and log where it's at so other can go visit it if they like
Just saw this knew this area , great view of Manhattan, AK , your walking tours are always great , an adventure worth watching new sub.,yeah river rd. Had changed for the better.
NJ is a holy ground. Why ? Bruce Springsteen was born there ( Asbury Park ) and he still lives there with his wife Patty ( Colts Neck ). Besides it's ultra clean there. Wow.
Thank you for another great walkabout! The street sign is not a mistake....it's thirty first street (the st is for first and the St is for street.)
It's a bit confusing because the sign behind it says 30 St without the "th", and the first St for 31st Street should be closer to the 31 to indicate that it belongs to the number.
@@ActionKid Actually you're right. Since they put 31 st St, then they should have put 30 th St. Sounds like the Streets and Transportation Department is not too terribly organized.

Excellent! I showed you both places!
Beautiful and interesting walk in New Jersey, I've never seen from there. Great tour!

Gay?
This was so different and next level. This is why you are the best youtuber
i love the bridge and body and neck pick up on your explorer neck threw nice
@@user-dg3he7gz2w thanks
I love this area. it is a place where you can get one of the best views of manhattan skyline
Weehawken is awesome!
I’m from Chgo but I agree . The view from N.J. beats all other views of Manhattan. Rt3 into the helix to the Lincoln Tunnel affords one of the best views.
@@ActionKid Thank you for this video!
I remember I used to walk on Bergenline Ave. that I been grew up everytime. But I missed this place and by the way, great video.
THANK you very much‼️
I had live in fort Lee for 5years from1989.
I miss NJ very very much.
from Japan.
Thank you AK , Love going on walks with you 😊🙏

It’s not a typo its 31st ST!
My old GPS reads “635 West forty two street.” It should read “635 West forty second street” instead.
It's a bit confusing because the sign behind it says 30 St without the "th", and the first St for 31st Street should be closer to the 31 to indicate that it belongs to the number.
lol i thought that too
@@ActionKid yeah it would be 31'st' and 30'th'
Yes that is correct 31st Street
AK nice you have been going to NJ learning a lot about it. Congrats beautiful Mural inspiration for my art.
You passed my childhood home. 71 Anderson Ave. Blue house on the left it was cool bro
Thank you ActionKid for your hard work and dedication always with a smile!!!!

37th St is dope, except for the homeless shelter down by Park Avenue. That place always looks depressing.

Glen ridge ave. and it’s beautiful homes is definitely a place to visit.
Sooooo many commas.
AK so glad you’re a UA-camr…your character is refreshing you don’t see many authentic UA-camrs.❤️🙏🏽
Grew up in Leonia, Ft Lee and Wayne ! Great vids. More NJ vids please! Go to Wayne NJ !
Thank you for this! I'm from West New York. Next time you should walk on Bergenline Ave from 32nd street up to 80th street park. You're the man!

Awesome!

Hey Ken this was one of your best walks so far ! 👍👍 I watched it the whole evening together with my GF. All the best from Germany under hard Lockdown
OMG you were so close to my area!
Me too! Right in it, toward the beginning.
Thsnk you AK love you're walks New Jersey Bridge is so pretty stsy safe Stsy well ⭐⭐⭐💙💙
So happy to see ActionKid back in NYC and NJ especially during the holidays!
Grew up in Liberty Corner and Montclair i truly miss it ( sadly things have changed SO much) thank you for this the footage is wonderful
That''s not a typo :P
It says thirty first street!
31st is thirty first. This is
why they used two
different size fonts.
Hello Actionkid from Staten Island. I'm addicted to your videos 😁😁😁😁😁👋
My cousin lived in Staten Island when she was attending St Johns
They have a lot of old colonial homes in New Jersey. I look that view of New York from that park. It's beautiful. Wow! It is breath taking.

Thnk you for this ak alot of nostalgia!!🙏🏽
I really enjoy your work. This walk is my old stomping grounds where I lived for many years. Keep it going!
New Jersey -- 31st St. LQQK again closely. It clearly says: 31st (31first).
Awesome Walkabout!!! Excellent job, esp. since you were never here before!!! Thank You!
Should have stayed and not turned on Park, though, as you missed a bunch of other things, though, you can't do everything, I guess...But where you first got lost, in the "Bluff", by Blvd East, you made all the right moves!!!
You're were mostly, literally on the Atlantic Palisades, the very Eastern edge of the North American Continent.
My grandmother built 4213 Bergenline Avenue in the 1920s. Her Kleinschmidt's distinctive cards and gifts ad seems to be weathering well.
No, the street sign was correct. 31st (thirty-first) Street.👍
Another example: 5th Street, 3rd Road, 41st Street...etc.😂💖
Street sign is correct thirty first street
Thank you guys for the great livestream it was fun! Wishing your mom well @Jason
Around the Fairview area a lot of Guatemalan restaurants 😃 you brought back memories.

You are so sweet to people when they walk up to you. 🤗
Bergen County Line is right at Fairview Avenue right where that orange building is. Once you hit that, Bergen County is on the other side.
Watching from Ireland 😉,
Some of the streets look,
So much like the streets in,
Dublin city,
You sound like a grand ,
Chap, keep the videos coming,
Great stuff 😀😀😀.
That was not a typo it's pronounce THIRTY FIRST STREET , abbreviation of firST .. is st . So it's not 31 St ST , it is 31st Street .... the st is American abbreviation for first or. 1st lol great content
I walk this path a lot esp. in the summer, thank you AK always informative
ActionKid just taught us that if you want to see NYC, then you have to go to New Jersey. I look forward to the day when you have MILLIONS of followers !!! Great 👍 job once again !!!
Action kid you should explore Secaucus N.J. by the Lincoln Tunnel.
That gives a great view of NY and that’s coming from a Midwesterner.
I grew up in Bergen Co. but worked in NYC. I live in Cape May now. You should consider taking a day trip down to Cape May at the very tip of NJ. Wildwood is close by. You'd have Lot's to film down here!
So beautiful. Your video quality and views are so great . I really enjoy exploring with you.
37:30 oh the burn 🔥 oh the burn lol 😆 that was awesome and funny that you did that 😄
Hey ActionKid there is a North York here in Ontario Canada. North York is one of the six administrative districts of Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
When I come to NYC , I visit my friends in Rutherford NJ , nice little city.
Why don't you go there one day? 😊
Hi , where you are taking a break drinking water is the condo on 770 Anderson avenue it’s called
The Greenhouse .We used to own an apt there on 21st floor with views of from St. John de Devine all the way to Empire State Building that was early 90’s.
AK , my friend,you are a 'walking warrior' and a soldier of a walking experience of the highest caliber !!
Hi ActionKid when I was visiting Union City in 2016, I wanted to walk down those stairs 30:22 but the gate was locked due to Un Safe Stairs in need of repairs. Was there in total of 546 stairs or more stairs? So how many stairs were there, you are not going to tell us!
Love your videos, I am new here, really from Canada, we have lots of snow here compare to the states and very cold, sometimes its -30 or below.
Seeing this park for the 1st time, it's nice and very accessible since I live in New Jersey
The small st is for 31st the Capital ST is shortened for STREET... no? 31st ST
Absolutely beautiful scene of NYC's Manhattan Skyline,
Ken, you are EVERYWHERE. A regular tour guide action hero!
I've seen az 1:16:20 "ABC SUPER STORE". Here, in Hungary we have ABC stores since 1960's. :)
I was just watching your video and to correct what you said about the typo on the street sign is actually correct, 31st = ( Thirty first) St. = (Street)
At 33:13 I did not know Liberty Steps was there and I've lived there for 8 years. Jersey city steps into Hoboken is the worst.
Hey actionkid thanks so much for sharing
I've checked but there does not seem to be a North New York in Quebec, Canada!
Hello new to your. Channel love your videos and love the fact that you shows us new things to go and do I am looking forward to coming to New york thank you
Hey actionkid. First off, I love what you do. I been watching you since right before 2020. Secoundly, I think you would enjoy a app called Museo. You can take pics of the awesome murals you see like at 7:40 and log where it's at so other can go visit it if they like
Just saw this knew this area , great view of Manhattan, AK , your walking tours are always great , an adventure worth watching new sub.,yeah river rd. Had changed for the better.
NJ is a holy ground. Why ? Bruce Springsteen was born there ( Asbury Park ) and he still lives there with his wife Patty ( Colts Neck ).
Besides it's ultra clean there. Wow.
