I watch your New York Walking videos with my family on our UHD TV & its makes us feel like we walking with you around New York my son is a big fan of your videos .Your content is awesome bro keep up the great work Actionkid .May God bless you man
As a native New Yorker, who used to live there in Brooklyn, and now lives in mid Georgia , I know these places he's walking through well most of them and it is such a treat. Yes I also watch it on a projection screen super big and it's like I'm walking with him. Almost like being there yourself❤❤❤❤👍🏿
Good to see you revisited the abandoned Montauk cutoff again. Something spooky about that place! Another visit in a next winter's snowstorm might give a completely different perspective. Thanks!
This is my favorite video. I could "feel" the quiet peacefulness of the location. I felt like I was walking through this little garden. It was great! Thank you for uploading.
This is an all volunteer run community garden. You can visit the website here www.smilinghogsheadranch.org/ The gardeners and other folks in the area are advocating for a larger project that (except for being sited on vacant rail tracks) is nothing like the Highline (mostly because we want to see ACTIVE uses like education, urban farming, renewable enrgy creation and composting happen on this site while the Highline is passive, only allowing walking and sitting). Info on that proposed project can be found here: dutchkillsloop.org/
Very interesting videos 😊 Some gardens and sometimes it's like people left this places and nature have started to live there by itself 😊 It's sometimes reminds postapocalypse view of the city... 😊
VERY cool spot! Kinda reminds me that garden from the movie "Harriet the Spy" or the clubhouse from "Little Rascals" haha 😆 Thanks for capturing this place!
hello !! ... 👍😊 ... happy Sunday !!!! ... yesterday I was in Rockaway Beach and Hoboken in New Yersey !! ... I am very tired but happy haha 😅 !!! 💝👌👏
It's MTA/LIRR property known as the Degnon Terminal. used to be private tracks own by industrialists and transferred to MTA around the 1980 and not used since. Us gardeners have a Garden License Agreement to use the land and we have chosen not to build a fence, our hours are dawn to dusk. We have three rules: 1. No smoking or fire of any sort. 2. Don't harvest anything you did not help grow. 3. Bring positivity and leave the place better than you found it. More info at our website www.smilinghogsheadranch.org/
If it’s for certain a dead rail road idk why they wouldn’t tear the rails out to recycle & fix the bridges to turn that into a nice walking/biking nature trail.

I like the idea that land is not wasted. The community planted vegetables for their own consumption and they don't need to buy them. Thanks!
thats what LIC is all about, cheers!
4:50 it's always scary hearing a train horn while walking on the tracks... but the invisible groaning train from hell is terrifying!

Greetings from Croatia! As always👍👏 A.K.

I enjoy your videos very much, especially the narrated ones.
You have a GREAT channel.
Thank you very much.
I like the sound of the foot steps walking on the ballast.

So cool! Thanks for all the information!
Amazing video. Thanks again keep up the great work. Happy Father’s Day to everyone in the channel
Thanks ActionKid.
Thanks to you, I'm learning places I don't know in New York.
Very interesting videos 😊
Some gardens and sometimes it's like people left this places and nature have started to live there by itself 😊
It's sometimes reminds postapocalypse view of the city... 😊
Excellent video thank you for sharing
Amazing how you find these places. Must feel surreal being alone on top of a 🛤 looking down on the city.
It was really surreal!
@@ActionKid your sort of an archivist if you think of it.
Wow - So very special to find it.
such as a beautiful places , well done
Excellent New York City adventure dude
Good morning Action Kid.
VERY cool spot! Kinda reminds me that garden from the movie "Harriet the Spy" or the clubhouse from "Little Rascals" haha 😆
Thanks for capturing this place!
How come you don't talk on your tours anymore, I loved hearing you explain.
What are you going to do a video walking the abandoned Rockaway branch? You could do a very long video on that one
Watching from Brazil. 👍
Cool video~! thank you for your efforts~!👍
Find some more abandoned Rail lines in New York City to do the walk on I'd love to see it
hello !! ... 👍😊 ... happy Sunday !!!! ... yesterday I was in Rockaway Beach and Hoboken in New Yersey !! ... I am very tired but happy haha 😅 !!! 💝👌👏
Great!
Brilliant 🙂
Yeah... I don't know. Some of the places you go, you're either very trusting or you carry. Not sure which. Stay safe my friend.
Thank you 🙏
is the ranch area a siding that access the montauk cutoff ROW.? Do the tracks that run through the ranch reach the montauk cutoff?
That subscriber base is getting up there.❤❤❤❤👍🏿
👍👍👍 Have a nice Sunday 🤗
Natural products 👍
Hi,K., have you heard a "Da capo" and heeded it? (With a variation?)
Have a nice Sunday.
I don’t know what that means.
I’ve lived in all the boroughs and never heard of this place. Is this public or private property. I’m guessing maybe LIRR owns it.
It’s private property owned by the MTA. The ranch is open to the public.

I read on curbed that there are plans to convert this into a high line like park
That would be nice 👍
@@ActionKid our plans are not for a Highline but a ecological industrial park (which includes a passive "Highline" like component dutchkillsloop.org/
Looks like ActionKid has branched out into UrbEx. Abandoned subway stations next I guess.
Disappointed me a bit that you turned at that point :D
He said because there was holes and he didnt wanna fall in the water

Beautiful is new york city i love your videos
Who owns the tracks ?
I forgot to ask, why was it abandoned?
Mostly declining freight rail use and low ridership
@@ActionKid becareful of creepy crawlies :)
... no path on map..... ☹
Hard to do with an abandoned rail line!
Love your avi Martin - it's not turrible!😉😆
Maybe it's just me, but I don't think I'd personally want to be wandering around the railway part by myself.
Good place for a High Line like Manhattan.
