A rare example of a mall still surviving and thriving. For a while, back in the 2000s, it looked like Roosevelt might not make it out alive but I’m glad to see that it did.
just watched a video called "Mall City 1983" showing this mall back in 80s. I was curious if it was still around, so I searched youtube, then boom- ActionKid.
ActionKid, thanks so much for posting this... it brings back fond memories of my family when we would shop at Roosevelt Field Mall in the 1960's and 1970's. This was particularly nostalgic for me. Thanks for your work.
@@paulmercogliano5816 how? It looks nothing like it did in the 60s. I went there in the 90s & early 2000s, and it doesn't resemble the mall I grew up with one bit.
I grew up in Westbury in 1975 through 1992. My family used to shop at Roosevelt Field many times. It has changed since I lived in Long Island Nassau County. That was almost 30 years ago my old stopping grounds brings back my childhood and teenage years.
In my little town we have 2 malls. One is dying, the other is doing well. But my town died back in the late 70's because of the Auto industries leaving the Motor City. We supplied parts. The reason most malls are fading is the mall owners charge outrageous rent for space. Now we have what I call Wally world ( Wal-Mart ) just one street outside the city limits. It has destroyed all the Mom and Pop grocery stores. The only grocery stores that can compete are the Meijer and Kroger stores, all the others are gone. We now have less choices. I only go to Mom and Pop restaurants, I refuse to shop at Wally world and do not eat at chain restaurants except for Burger King! I love them because they don't lie about how fattening their food is, they leave it to you to decide! Thanks for the great walks! Stay safe.
I remember in middle school and high school taking the bus and going to guitar center, Petco, the Mall and movies then going eat every weekend with my friends.
Oddly, malls in Southern California are booming. Every single one has been recently renovated or is under construction. I don't understand how it's possible!
Nice to see your in my neighborhood. I’ve been going to this mall for over 30yrs. Roosevelt Field had a mall within a mall. The Le Petit mall, with the Cave beauty salon. Remember that anyone?
Oh yeah. My Bar Mitzvah was November 1980 and the day before I got my haircut at the Cave. That was a cool spot. There was a hairstylist named Mickey that was popular there.
Now.... this, what I'm talking about Actionkid! You can't go wrong with this marvelous videos! I just love it!!!! 🤗🤗🤗👍👍🤗🤗 Thanks Actionkid you're the best on UA-cam to me!!! Well... I can't say anything bad about your videos Actionkid!!! 🙆♀️🙆♀️🙆♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️🙋♀️ YOUR 'RE THE VIDEOS SENSATIONAL "ACTIONKID "
I remember about a mile radius there was barely anything around, except a chain restaurant this was back in the '90s. I also remember the outside flea market back in the '70s and '80s.
Flea market was awesome. I rode my bike there once or twice. That was the place2 go2 get rock tee shirts. So much of everything & street pretzels just like Manhattan
Great video .. Love your narrated videos but loved the non narration in this video as it gives the sense of being there ourselves. ..Great work as always.
I also noticed the bus that was pulling out in the video there was a picture of a bus coming through and it had the same livery as that bus but it was a GMC fishbowl from the 1960s so obviously the same bus companies to operate in that area
What a relaxing place to go to get away from all the City nonsensedid you actually take the long bus ride or did you walk to carle place and take the Long island railroad to Woodside?
Kenneth ! I went crazy now! I lived in Carle Place ( me , Joe Satriani and Steve Vai) next to Roosevelt Field, ,I spent my childhood going to this mall ! Thank you very much for posting this! You are the best!
Ken, 6:15 to 8:15 too fast, not smooth enough ( this is not a criticism, don't take it badly) i did that in Dubai mall for like 10 minutes ( walking and moving my arm very fast) and my coach told me : "try to imagine a person in a wheelchair " - and i did it and it was neat 👍 Otherwise, super amazing video well done Ken, a mall, very good idea 👍👍 i hope there will be plenty more 👍
Story time: about 12 years ago, I took a 5-day weekend for the New Orleans Mardi Gras holiday (it fell in mid-March that year), and flew up to Long Island to visit friends in the Oyster Bay area. Since it was the typical March 90° in New Orleans, I thought it would be nice to be in a cooler climate. Accordingly, I packed two pairs of jeans and a sweatshirt, in case it got cold at night. Everything else was cargo shorts and short sleeve shirts. I arrived at the climate-controlled JFK, got into their waiting car, and went to their house. We spent several hours visiting and I went to bed. A delivery truck for the deli across the street woke me up at around 6 am, so I got up, went downstairs (still wearing shorts and a t-shirt from the day before) and stepped out onto the porch of their Sea Cliff home. At this point, I realized that it was much colder there than I expected. 20° F to be exact! When they woke up, I was already dressed in jeans and multiple layers of t-shirts and my hoodie, and I borrowed their car to go try to find some winter clothes, as we planned to go to The City that day. Roosevelt Field was the closest mall, so I used their primitive Garmin to navigate there, and walked in the doors as they opened on Saturday morning. Now, as I’m sure anyone who lives in cold climates knows, winter clothes start selling in the early fall, and by mid-March, there are none left, and swimwear has started to go on sale for the impending thaw. I walked all over that mall, went to every department store, and finally managed to find a pair of thick gloves that fit (took a while for them to dig up a pair that actually had a left AND a right), and two thermal undershirts that were a couple of sizes too small. TLDR: if you’re from the south, and you visit New York during the winter, all of your winter clothes probably won’t be enough. Go shopping in advance!
@Runner Girl No concept means no concept. It didn't matter what the weather forecast said, I had the expectation of it being a little cooler than we're used to down here.
Filming shopping malls might actually be a direction to take the channel to, if you ever run out of streets to film in NYC. Since shopping malls are apparently a dying breed, it might be interesting to document them, before they are gone. There are already channels focusing on filming in old, closed down, abandoned and dilapidated malls. They seem to have trouble finding footage of how those malls looked like when they were still running, so that might be kind of a open niche for you.
in America they are dying out but here and there in the world they are booming. For example in Poland they seem to be popping up all over the place. Tho this might eventually collapse too as it did in America
@@KevinArcade87 I live in Germany and here malls are also still running and they even built a few new ones in the capital of the state I'm living in about 5 years ago. The thing is though that it isn't the native German population visiting those malls. Germans just sit at home, watch Netflix and order stuff on Amazon. It is the Middle Eastern immigrants who keep the malls open. When you visit a mall in Germany, like 70% of the people in there will wear head scarfs. I visited one of those new malls I mentioned when it was still new and back in the beginning, they had a interesting, diverse collection of different restaurants and food vendors in the food court. There was a Asian fusion restaurant with a sushi conveyor belt, a Mexican taco stand and a Swedish meat ball restaurant. When I visited that mall again 2 years later, all those interesting restaurants were closed down and had been replaced by the same old Turkish and Arab kebab shops you find all over Germany. Now there are like 5 different kebab shops in that one mall food court, all selling the exact same food. It is ridiculous, but the people shopping in that mall are not interested in exotic foods, it seems.
@@KevinArcade87 Malls aren't losing their utility, the thing is America built more malls than every other country on Earth and therefore has a lot of leftover malls that just aren't needed anymore. It's separating the wheat from the chaff, so to speak. Malls aren't really becoming useless, but we just don't need as many as we used to.
I was just there. The food court has got so much more variety of food choices as compared to years before. Depending on where you eat, it can be a little over priced for that reason I hardly go the malls..lol. For me I find this mall overwhelming. In the basement their is a post office , a 7'11 type of in and out store and few other stores.
Do any of the buses from hempstead terminal go to roosevelt field mall because im coming from Manhattan and i can take the F trains to the N6 to Hempstead but i don't know what bus to transfer too please help me out
@@pamelagriffin3561 Hi Pamela 👋, ironically I actually grew up in hempstead, I lived 38 years in hempstead. It will always be apart of me somehow , there are alot of great nice honest people there ( hempstead gets a bad rep sometimes, :/) But I moved from the stead a couple of years ago. The nice bus at hempstead terminal that goes to the mall are n15 to roosevelt field mall goes there. The n35 to westbury stops at roosevelt field mall. Can also take the the n40/41 to mineola and get a transfer to take the n22 going towards hicksville stops at roosevelt field mall. If do take n40/41 can walk it up to mineola blvd and take N24 going to hicksville/roosevelt field mall. Can also take the lirr train going to mineola instead of hempstead to take the bus to the mall. I would do that way because more faster and safer. Back in the day early 90's me and my friend we were teens ,had door knocker earing we were almost jumped for our earings. The hempstead terminal sometimes can have some unnecessary drama. I would take the lirr train to mineola and right next to the mineola lirr is the mineola intermodal bus terminal to catch the bus to the mall, much nicer and safer area. Best regards
@@pamelagriffin3561 you can also take the F train to the last stop in jamaica to take the Q43 to the last stop to hillside ave in new hyde park and transfer to take the n22 to roosevelt field if want to take that option. Coming back from roosevelt field the n22 and n24 goes right to jamaica . The n22 , i am familiar with more last stop is right by the F train
@@pamelagriffin3561 if take the n6 to hempstead terminal transfer to take the n15 to roosevelt field, n35 to westbury both will take you to roosevelt field mall.
Shout out to ActionKid for going to Roosevelt Field Mall with a scenic walkthrough of one of my favorite places 👍😊. Hopefully to see a follow up on Walt Whitman Shoppes aka (Walt Whitman Mall) in Huntington Station, Sunrise Mall in Massapequa and Green Acres Mall. You doing a phenomenal job ActioKid keep up the fantastic work.
The one thing I notice about most Simon malls, they all are structured the same. Nanuet Mall was a Simon mall, looked very much like this back in the day. Want a real challenge? Walk the Palisades mall in West Nyack. Buses leave from Port Authority going to all points Rockland County, NY, including all the malls :)
I just got finished watching a documentary about this mall it was filmed the week before Easter 1983 and the cars in the parking lot looks a lot different documentary also I noticed a lot of kids were smoking cigarettes in the mall and I was thinking all the plants in the planters are going to get emphysema from it
ActionKid, my hailed friend and dutiful fellow UA-camr, I have now laid my unclouded eyes upon the newest contents of your channel and must inform you that I enjoyed to the highest regard and fullest extent, for all to witness clearly.
A couple of weeks before the world ended. I came here after watching "Mall City". It looks like the place has gone a lot more up market...and is a lot more cold and impersonal since the 80s. A bit like the rest of the world.
walking in the parking lot of a mall is more dangerous than walking the streets of Manhattan Ken, watch it, I can't believe they let you video, I wanted to take pictures of the original Batmobile at our mall years ago, and they said no cameras.....must not be so uptight there.
I left long island 17 years ago and it has been a major blast of happiness, joy and bliss to leave that over taxed, over crowded, over stressed, over expensive, over leftist, horrible prison island!!!
I haven't shopped at a mall in several years. I make all of my purchases online. Malls that once defined American retailing in the 1960's through the 1990's are becoming an economic casualty of the 21st century. Just another inevitable socio-economic change in our culture as time marches on.
No that's the way I'm all should be lots of people in there shopping using it as a community center and just getting together most malls today are ghost towns or they've turned into Amazon fulfillment houses
A rare example of a mall still surviving and thriving. For a while, back in the 2000s, it looked like Roosevelt might not make it out alive but I’m glad to see that it did.
Great job
This mall is doing really well. Not one empty store. That's incredible... Beautiful mall. Thanks ❤😎

Tim Roar just a little bit Hehe
As a teenager, I worked at Alexanders Department Store. I remember it was at the backend of the mall and was one the anchor stores.
Action kid gets around the town. I have not been out there since the Roosevelt Harness track closed down. Great videos, keep em coming Kid, thank you.

How are you doing?
Was one of my favorite places to go as a child.
Awesome job doing a mall walkthrough video!! Wish I could check out that mall, and do some shopping. lol!!!
Is it possible you can do green acres mall next?
If you did Roosevelt field mall you got to do Jones beach this summer.
El Fish Knows yeahhhhhhh!
I recommended you go there and I was just there lol Cool video Thanks
Ah, I see you’re at Roosevelt Field. A SIMON property. Hope you had a good walkthrough there
I love this mall with a passion!
This is my favorite mall I love it and im glad to see some people in the comments r in my area

Its on the site of this mall where Charles Lindhberg flew the first non-stop flight across the atlantic to Paris.
Please include your narration it makes the video more lively and double fun :-)
ta...
I like both. Some narrated some not. I trust his judgment 😎
And then there are the people who don’t want narration 😉 It’s impossible to please everyone!
ActionKid point noted sir 😊👍🏼
I miss the non narrated ones, been watching those again but always appreciate the narrated ones as well
I worked at this mall for ten years at Macy’s in the mid eighties.
Hello gorgeous Michele, how are you doing?
NICE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I miss home, Strong Island and NY no other place like it.
Actionkid in stealth mode action... lol
I wonder if there's any original stores in the mall that was there back in the early eighties that's still there today
What a relaxing place to go to get away from all the City nonsensedid you actually take the long bus ride or did you walk to carle place and take the Long island railroad to Woodside?
I took the LIRR to Mineola and walked.
@@ActionKid next time take LIRR to carle place it's much closer
Nice! Very interesting video!
Damn, Simon’s all over the country. They got two here(the Galleria and Katy Mills) malls in Houston TX.
Nice mall! Great walk:)
Hi Action Kid , can you do a walk of glen oaks, bellerose queens to new hyde park : )
Hello gorgeous faith, how are you doing?
Fantastic
Nice walking tour. The interior of this mall is like Stonetown Galleria San Francisco.
AK ... what was the rush? I felt dizzy with this one! Still love your others though. So thank you anyways.

Please do a walk of the American dream mall once its fully opened
Where is that going to be? Just curious, I hadn't heard of it yet :)
@@ninja_tony East Rutherford NJ. Supposed to be one of the biggest malls
@@dowblab Cool, thanks for letting me know!

.You should be a sociologist my friend, because you are very apt at seeing the strange in the familiar.
Hello gorgeous marga, how are you doing today?
I haven't shopped at a mall in several years. I make all of my purchases online. Malls that once defined American retailing in the 1960's through the 1990's are becoming an economic casualty of the 21st century. Just another inevitable socio-economic change in our culture as time marches on.

I live near there!
A standard shopping mall
So that's what a non-dead mall looks like..
Can you make your way over to the Smith Haven Mall and pop in and say hi to me :D
You shouldn't done meeting At Roosevelt Field Mall With Romi's Bus And Train Videos And lol dolls With omg
Romi , You should not use others channel to promote / self - gloss. It is in poor form.
No that's the way I'm all should be lots of people in there shopping using it as a community center and just getting together most malls today are ghost towns or they've turned into Amazon fulfillment houses
Nice mall.
Slow down .
