Thanks for this pleasant Sunday morning ride through Lower Manhattan. The best ending for this shoot would be driving down Broadway to the Charging Bull for your fade-out. I believe the bull "is going to attack the southbound lane" of Broadway.
The nice thing about NYC is that if you get lost, you will come back to where you started. Plus you can live in rural areas and you can end up knowing the city inside and out exactly like Chicago.
If you're in the streets of NYC, even in Manhattan, you don't need a car, but rather walk, cycle and use public transport. As for transport, a lot of NYC's subways are bad.
Hello Driver Friend!!! 👍😉 I enjoy watching your videos and thank you for showing me these beautiful paths. Hopefully one day I can go to this beautiful place 👍 Hola Amigo Conductor!!! 👍😉 Disfruto viendo tus videos y gracias por mostrarme estos hermosos caminos. Ojalá algún día pueda ir a este hermoso lugar 👍
I really enjoy these videos. I'm not from NY and have never been. So I have a question. At around the 1hr and 16 min mark, he's headed north on Greenwich Ave. What are all of the make shift buildings along the curbs?
You might be referring to the sidewalk sheds. They are erected when work needs to be done on the building exterior, and they protect pedestrians on the sidewalk from falling objects.
Oof. 40:09. Gonna be "that guy" for a moment, here. Maybe you just didn't notice, but, for future reference: you cannot turn right on red in NYC. It's legal in New York State, but not in any of the Five Boroughs. The NYPD is infamously-lackadaisical about enforcing traffic laws, but for the sake of pedestrians in this insanely-dense city (like me!), even on quiet days like the one depicted here, please be careful. Take it from someone who survived a serious car strike that nearly tore my left leg off at the expense of spending half of my 20s learning to walk again (don't worry, I run marathons now). There are three blanket rules that take effect once you cross the city limits, unless otherwise-indicated by signage: no right on red, no U-turns, speed limit of 25 MPH. And it's worth repeating, in-general, that pedestrians have automatic right-of-way in any active crosswalk, even if you as a driver have the light: cars yield to people, not the other way around. Insert the GI Joe "now I know, and knowing is half the battle" bumper here.
I was wondering about that the whole time I was in NYC. It definitely made sense in my mind that you wouldn't be able to but yet I didn't see any signage about it anywhere. Eventually I saw a sign on the LIE that mentioned that you couldn't but I was surprised I never saw it posted anywhere else.
Yeahhhhhh.... NYCDOT does a very bad job, there. There's a specific pair of signs that greet you at every city limit crossing, but they're similarly-sized to rural speed limit signs. That works on a two-lane road in greenery, but strapped to the side of a light pole in the middle of the very-dense Westchester/Bronx or Nassau/Queens borderlands? Not so much. Even worse, while they do this on the major grade-separated crossings, too, like the Holland and Lincoln Tunnels, the signs are AFTER you exit the tunnels, in the middle of merging into 8,000 lanes. If you're not from here, you're trying, desperately, to figure out which lane you're supposed to be in whilst navigating crisscrossing traffic, so, you're not going to notice the signs, mostly. Heck, even natives may not know, since only 25% of Manhattanites own cars, and only about 45% of the city overall does. You can see the signage on Google Street View at the the various city limits interaction points. It's pretty-much always grossly-inadequate. :(
It was Christmas weekend. Which also happened to be an insanely-cold Christmas weekend. So, double-trouble. Even I was holed up, and I'm a psycho that runs 50 miles per week, rain or shine. But not in THAT wind chill!
This Year Can you Go From Buffalo, NY To South TROY, NY ??? VIA: I-90 ,And I-787 N, and NY-378E, On exit 7E on I-787 but mostly.... You Don't Have To Do That and great driving
Yaaay! This is the one we've been waiting for! Downtown NYC! Thanks Mike!
Finally! Took 3 tries to film it without being in gridlocked traffic 😂
@@MileageMikeTravels Hey, be glad it's not LA Traffic! That's the worst! Even worse than NYC, DC and ATL!
Thanks! I normally prefer walking videos of these cities, but this was great and allowed me to see things I wouldn't see in a walking video.
Thanks for the support!
Nice ride in the lower Manhattan [New York NY]

Yeah you'd probably get around on a bike faster than driving during most times of the day.
Thank you for your effort
Mileage MIke!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Dog shitting on Pearl Street made me laugh

Wow, where is everybody? Underground commuting??
Either it was Sunday or it was Christmas Weekend.
@@ryanearles2024 Gotta be Christmas weekend.
@@JamEZ87 Likely.

He’s done at least 80% of that as of now.
