  • Washington Heights is a neighborhood in Upper Manhattan which is often called the Little Dominican Republic. I take a walk on St Nicholas Avenue, one of the area's primary streets. Here, you will find many stores, retail outlets, service businesses, restaurants and grocery vendors.

    Born n raised in the Heights..189 st and St.Nicks.. a wonderful childhood. St.E's was a diverse community then a well. Irish..(me) Puerto Rican ..Greek.. and the newly immigrated Dominicans. Funny how these differences were never noticed. Well, at least by the kids in the neighborhood.

    Hey Actionkid 👋🏽 Enjoyed your walk through The Heights. At the beginning of your walk I saw a bunch of pigeons grabbing at some food. You have pigeons we (NC); have wild turkeys & they are big & ugly, Lol!! Yuck!!

    The video starts with the White Building on the corner of 172nd street. The apartment house my Grandparents lived in 100 years ago.. Time is like a wind the passes through and destroys all in its wake. In 100 years, the children that live there now, will feel the same emotion.

    A lot of what I see on this street reminds me of Chinatown and Bloor Street (west of Bathurst) here in Toronto (a little bit.)
    3:24-This dollar store reminds me and looks like a dollar store that I (sometimes) go to here in Toronto at the above-mentioned corner of Bloor and Bathurst.
    5:50-I like (heck, _love_ ) the (impromptu?) street grill shown here (I also want to see this 'LinkNYC' concept here in Toronto [as LinkT.O.]-I'm so envious of you New Yorkers for having it in New York when you need it on the street.)
    6:38 (to the immediate left)-A Prius police car? Now I've seen everything.

    I wonder if ActionKid moved back to NYC because he couldn't get views on Miami walking videos. Now the pandemic is over and everybody is working, people don't watch as much as during pandemic. So, it's tough for walking in NYC youtubers.
