Fantastic presentation Ann!!! You have inspired me.

I bought a condo when the parkchester south was converted in the 1980s, still own it. I met with sales rep to pick up $50 prospectus, who said l wouldn't get a mortgage based on income, l said to her "watch me"...changed job to get higher income, did not have a credit card yet, (l was 26 years old) went to the lender bank, who advised get a credit card, rent to own etc., l received a 15 year mortgage, paid it off in 10 years.

Have I missed the walking tour that was mentioned?

Awesome

After you there ll be other names replaced

Thank you for the excellent and informative presentation. I learned a lot! I have a quick question about the presence of African American women in Brooklyn Heights. If I understood correctly, you mentioned that the area nurtured women of all backgrounds. However, it seems that the African American women you referred to did not grow up or primarily live in Brooklyn Heights, which has historically been a predominantly white, upper-class neighborhood. Could you please clarify this point? Thanks again

Thank you Michelle! This was so well presented. It would have been nice to see some of the old Owl Eye LIRR trains ascending from the tunnel. The Sinclair garage had an upstairs shop area where we used to go on a rainy day for woodshop. An after school program run by John Duda and George Ashlander would pick us up after school on Waverly Ave. in Clinton Hill. Bishop Loughlin and Queen of All Saints on Lafayette Ave., as well as the Clinton Hill post-war apartments ($65.00 per-month) was our residence. St. Joseph Church is on Pacific St. Nicely Done - Thank you so much!

There is no silver lining to the destruction of Penn Station with the possible exception of the creation of the great effort to save Grand Central from the same fate. Ernie Fazio

I came out of 1704 Randall ave , White Planes road was the division line for colors. The opening of Korvet and the Hills food store let the black and brown people go past the division line. Jimmy Mac

Excellent. ...Thank you..I'm Robert from New York 😇🙏💕

I visited the hotel shortly before it closed for renovations (now it is owned by a shell company of the Chinese Communist Party), and I was totally disappointed at how cheap it looked. Fake dropped ceilings with off-the-shelf sunken lights, lowered ceilings in the rooms too. Cheap wall to wall carpeting. Even the bathroom fixtures shown here in the vid are something you find in any department store. You could only see traces here and the of its glorious past. For example the nice metallic engravings on the elevator doors. Will have to see how it looks now, after these latest renovations.

😃👍

I was born in 1960 and this is in my neighborhood all of my life. 😢

Really interesting lecture.

Where on 57 st were you from ? I lived in Sunset park from 1965 being born in sr elizabeth baptized communion was a altar boy went to OLPH grammar school married there my children baptized there moved away in 1993

Desde el 1969 yo te estaba comprendo discos y tenia una coleccion que pasaba de mil dolares que era mi orgullo y xuando me mude de NY a la Florida en Julio de 1999, despues de retirarme del U.S. Postal Service, me robaron la coleccion completa tal y cual la tenia empaquetada. Eso tiene que haber sido un conocido que sabia lo que se robaba. Me alegra verte aunque sea en pintura y que estes bien. No estas tan viejo y te ves bien. Yo vivo entre medio de Orlando y West Palm Beach en lo que se llama, Port Saint Lucie. Veo tu negocio y me trae grandes recuerdos. Salud y buena suerte.

Wow!So cool!!!Thanks for that incredible presentation and show as well!!!!

Wow!Really into Flatbush !So gorgeous and unique neighborhood I assume!

I really enjoyed this presentation and the way Lucie connected his education and then those he taught, and the great impact he had on NYC and American architecture.

Very cool!

this is kind of mad

Love this show! Thanks 👍

As good as this video was, I just want to say I feel privileged to be the 69th like :)

Thanks for posting this 👍

Great job! Thanks

This isn't the other guy who did Mj on the new york trains is it?Looks skinnier....been looking for that other guy forever?Dissapeared off the face of the earth.

Don Miguel usted no es ningún trapo viejo. Usted es una gloria para nosotros los latinos que por nuestras venas corre la música afroantillana. Dios lo bendiga a usted. Le tengo un comentario: Llevo tiempo sin encontrar en las redes sociales el vals compuesto por Miguel Matamoros denominado "Pesadilla" ¿Será usted la persona que lo conoce y lo tiene en su tienda?

thank you for this vid and the in depth account of the hotel's early history. this puts that area of town and broadway in context now!

I'm with you on honoring Brooklyn with the recognition of Whitman's residence while writing his great book.

Great little intro to this cornerstone of American music. Nice background for my study on the history of music publishing. Much appreciated.

the positive: The content of the presentation was lovely and definitely raised my interest in SI. Would love to go on a walking tour sometime. the negative: Uh..um..uh..uh... Large parts of the presentation was awful to listen to. It was "uh" and "um" with a few words in between. Not everyone is eloquent on the fly, or at all, and that's okay, but the speaker ought to prepare for that by having a scripted presentation (text) to read from.

Video was just about useless

Green-Wood is a truly amazing historic and natural site that is worth visiting.

Thank you Uncle Joe 💞

the destruction of Penn station was unfortunate, it was not a case of it outliving it’s usefullness. New York’s Metropolitan Transportation Authority is in a heap of financial trouble. It is more than $40 billion in debt; it has a $60 billion maintenance backlog; plus it has more than $20 billion in unfunded health care obligations. Maintenance backlogs are harder to find as government agencies don’t want to admit they’ve been neglecting their physical infrastructure. The bottom line is that rail transit is extremely expensive and the city should have replaced the subway with rubber tire metro years ago. Rebuilding Penn Station by would cost $3.5 billion, Money New York doesn’t have. And projects built by government Always go over budget

It was very fantastic that he did his Homeowner of their their history on the Bronx and many of people that have wild life at the beginning of a rebuilding of well families children loved ones friends and neighbors cousins and uncles and nephews but time over past that move on to the to the Bronx and sometimes that it cannot be hold it that long and time move on and it was a very difficult times that well the 70s 80s and the 90s it was the worst time ever in that time of year but have a wine need to know that it is sometimes that I have a history that to the Bronx that cannot be forgotten that history have had to be recorded that pictures or Mathway fade away but everyone had already done their homework already it's just like starving some pauses that from the blank history and history is always to have Santa is unique and sometimes that the Bronx always to have a surprises that many people that they did not know and specially that the Bronx always will have a a neighborhood it was at Suburban neighborhoods communities towns before like taller buildings concrete High skyscrapers and many different appointments but you know that some neighborhood stata the Bronx of three floors just a lie but sometimes survival had to be the stronger and sometimes that I could be like a Band-Aid forgotten or anything else like that it's just like history is fading away from the Bronx sometimes. And well two City Halls and other people that are they just don't know about it but I Bronx and sometimes that it was very hard to say this a challenging all these years but everyone had to be working together or not everyone just going to be forgotten about it in the future to the Bronx and the Bronx always to have a different neighborhood styles from different language

I did not know Jean was part of the society! Such serendipity

I was fortunate enough to meet Jean today when I visited the new boardwalk at St. Francis Woods. It as not a good birding day but she made it a delight by showing me the Flagg estate and Gillett house. And we passed many gorgeous mansions. Castellono’s house was showy..guess if you are the Don you can get a house built on prime real estate! Thanks again Jean for a lovely walk. This video was interesting! Flagg was a millionaire but also someone who wanted decent housing for the poor. Very nice.

This was a very informative video on the history of Sunset Park. I grew up in this neighborhood in the 80s and left in 2003. I always enjoy going back to walk around the neighborhood and reminiscence.

This video was wonderful! I appreciated every minute of this fantastic historical overview of the neighborhood.

Hello, I saw a good video, thank you so much ✨응원합니다💕

I'm here for a dumb assignment!
