Manhattan
Manhattan is the most densely populated borough of New York City, its economic and administrative center, and its historical birthplace.
Many districts and landmarks in Manhattan are well known, as New York City received a record 61 million tourists in 2016, and Manhattan hosts three of the world's 10 most-visited tourist attractions in 2013: Times Square, Central Park, and Grand Central Terminal. The borough hosts many prominent bridges, such as the Brooklyn Bridge; skyscrapers such as the Empire State Building; and parks, such as Central Park. Chinatown incorporates the highest concentration of Chinese people in the Western Hemisphere, and the Stonewall Inn in Greenwich Village, part of the Stonewall National Monument, is considered the birthplace of the modern gay rights movement. The City of New York was founded at the southern tip of Manhattan, and the borough houses New York City Hall, the seat of the city's government. Numerous colleges and universities are located in Manhattan,including Columbia University, New York University, Weill Cornell Medical College, and Rockefeller University, which have been ranked among the top 40 in the world.

Fingers print, both growth, birth,
There's just something about New York that no other city in the world has...
GIANT RATS
I live here and you are right. It’s the prestige. There is no other city as prestigious as New York, New York.
Vibes
THIS!
the buildings
I love seeing my future neighbourhood in your videos. Thanks!!! Great video dude!!
Thankyou for filming this for the people who have no chance to visit these beautifull places... love from amsterdam
Lots of black Tahoes, Yukons, and Cadillac Escalades.
I did spot a red XJ-S.
Isaac Detherage lots of celebs
New York is one of my favorite city. Thanks for sharing. Greeting from Taiwan.
What a beautiful state i love downtown NY ♥
that super tall rectangle building you see the whole first part of the video in the distance, that is a condo building (432 Park Avenue Condos) and the condo at the very very top is about $82,000,000 or more.
It will be outshined by Steinway tower that will be completed next year.
Madness
Holy shit!
It is a wonderful piece of art. excellent video!!!. I watched it from the beggining to the end. The audio and images were great. Congratulations for your dedicated and awesome job.
I love this so much! Thanks J!
Great video as always
Thank You very much J Utah, You took me back to to NYC in nintees. I used to drive in NYC up and down , day and night. It was so much fun to drive in NYC. I drove in NYC for almost eight years. Know each and every corner of NYC. What a great place to be in. SImply mind blowing city in the world. Thanks dude .
Great videos, thank you for transporting us in so many desirable places. A small suggestion: having a map of the route, either superimposed in a corner of the video or in the description would help the viewer better orient himself in the city. Keep up the good work!
Another beautiful video! Great job J Utah, BRAVO!!
Cheers!! :)
Good video :) I like seeing NYC
this is amazing !
Really enjoy your videos! Come drive through Omaha,NE! Not much to see, but it’ll be cool to see my city through your eyes!
beautiful you deserve more subscribers
Awesome!
The best part, that's where I met the man of my life ♥️
Lots of love to New York 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 from India 🇮🇳🇮🇳
Amazing city.
great video!!!!!! come to great neck, long island
Nice to see Park Avenue again. I lived in Manhattan for many years but don’t go in anymore there’s too much crime and because of Covid. But there was a time when walking around the city was absolutely exhilarating and exciting so many cool people, places to go, and things to do. I really miss that and hope it comes back to the way it was. My prayers for all who live there now to do so safely and in good health. By the way you really get around, don’t you.,
Lovely lovely Park Avenue 😍
Hey fear nice video really you doing great job .can video about coquille Oregon .thanks.
Thanks - Will try and drive through on my next visit :)
Beautiful.
I keep meaning to ask, are you a teacher or work in the school system at all? I notice the majority of your uploads are during the summer and sporadic during the rest of the year. Just curious. Good long video too:)
Like 🤗👍🌹 thank you very much. New York city .
Keep it up brother
The streets aren't congested, they're leisurely, they look clean and cool.
It's a good video.
I ❤️❤️❤️ New York 😊😊💯💯 I lived in lower Manhatten a long time ago, promotional job opportunity, I loved it, came back to San Francisco when project was completed! I was set up in a beautiful suite near Battery Park as part of my compensation, wonder if my favorite Irish pub is still there - what fun memories 😊😊😊😊
Sounds like you have lived a great life getting to work on important projects in world renowned cities. Power to you.
Excellent work, J! I think your next stop should be Madison, Wisconsin. Supposed to be one of the best downtowns in America. It's sandwiched in between two lakes.
Frederick0220 I went to school in Wisconsin...I can’t recommend Milwaukee lol but Madison is nice! If you’re ever in Wisconsin, Lake Geneva is nice too!
Thank you my friend .take care of your self

Dear Mamadou why
New york is wayyyy bettah
Mamad Bela Toronto sucks new York is the most popular city in the world 🌏 dipshit
You should do some night drives! :) Downtown would look amazing.
I miss the Crown Vic's.
Best city in America
people have always been mostly nice to me there and the traffic is nowehere near as bad as LA - but it doesn't even matter because you just use subway to get anywhere
Distant Travels don’t forget the hyper gentrification kicking out all the natives and immigrants who didn’t move there rich to replace them with trust fund hipsters 🙈
Ka Gala, literally every big city is gentrifying itself, they have to. If you were a mayor, would you rather have rich, young hipsters with lots of money to spend living in your city, or people of lower income? the answer is clear.
Patrix542 traffic in LA moves way better than what I’m seeing in this video. Even when i do hit traffic in LA it’s nothing compared to NY traffic jams.
Second!!
9:12 that jersey plate explains a lot.
Watching this from Uruguay. There is that ugly tower designed for my compatriot Rafale Viñoly.
de5letras hahaha....are you referring to 432 Park Avenue?
East New York Brooklyn please
the traffic doesn't seem soooooo bad
Bicuclists and pedestrians ignoring traffic signals and crossing in the middle of the street could drive you crazy. Plus double parked cars are everywhere.
I mean dear
Is it just me or traffic seems chaotic?
I have always dreamed about NYC but this looks like hell, yellow Toyotas everywhere, was thinking why was n't there a tram running up and down that wide street. Interesting film though even if it was a bit of an anti climax.
Well it's NYC. You aren't really supposed to drive. People use the subway and walk not a tram.
Thanks, just a shame you don't get the views when you are on the subway.
Try Phnom Penh bro.
Interesting you bring up the taxis. Personally, I miss the days when they were rear-drive, V8-powered Chevys, Fords, and Dodges, but I get that times change and it actually makes that NYC uses Camrys and Pruises now given the environmental and financial concerns. Bedsides, a V8 is also kind of a waste in a city with this kind of traffic unless it's a police car or something.
Show
We should know who films theses.
Seen the Helmsley building at 18:37 and thought of Leona Helmsley the real-estate tycoon known for her flamboyant personality and her reputation for tyrannical behavior, earning her title Queen of Mean.
В начале всё летело, а потом...
Was that Cash Cab in front of you? lol

Say what??
Chris Draper • I ink-thay ay-thay ave-hay anguage-lay oblem-pray. Ig-day?
Did you change the video title?
A couple months ago? Did you like the previous one more? Thanks for asking!
It doesn't matter, it just made the video slightly harder for me to find is all.
can you do sunset and/or nighttime drives please?
Every block in New York looks the same.
You have never been to NYC have you.
Don't get me wrong, but in NYC there are too many unrestored,gritty buildings that doesn't fit the urban landscape.It's a pitty that such a great wealthy city with so many private investors doesn't get enough investment to renovate/rebuild those beautiful buildings.
Salva Orduña or their subway system!
The buildings are old, and protected by strict building code. You can't just work on a building even if you got the funding. Especially in these historic districts of Manhattan. The "gritty" buildings is what makes NYC, NYC. If you wanna see only shinny new buildings, go to Dubai.
You haven't understood me .I'm not talking about destroying them,in fact,I think they're quite beautiful.I'm talking about restoring them,about quitting the air conditioners,about cleanning the gritty facades.Moreover NYC has also shiny new buildings that mixed with the historical architecture make the city one of the world's best.And if you're not able to understand what I'm talking about,go to Chicago,Boston, London or any city of Central Europe.
I feel like the old, gritty buildings is what gives NYC it's character, it's what gives it that classic "east coast" look, like Philadelphia, or Chicago, or Boston. Old buildings give cities their character and it tells a story about the city's past.
Gotham city
mAN IM FROM NEW YORK AND WOULD LOVE TO LOVE IN THE UPPER EAST SIDE CAUSE MAN ITS NICE AND PROBABLY COMFTORABLE
Thats not Upper East side....wrong title....Park Ave. Drive should be better
MARC SMITH The drive south on Park Avenue is the Upper East Side. If you notice, at one of the stoplights, the cross street was 85th at one and I think 68th at another.
Also, if you are familiar with the area as I am, you see the Met Life building in the center in the distance. That's located at Park and 45th. That's only 12 blocks south of the southern border of the UES. I usually walk down Madison to the Starbucks at 49th ALL the time. I'm in the east 60's when I'm in town.
MARC SMITH ...after watching the whole video, I can now see your point. It was moreso a showcase of Park Avenue.
这就是纽约
upper east side looks like paris
km shut up. Paris much more better than nyc
Dmytry B Paris is overrated. Take away effiel tower, whats left? Nothing.
km most beautiful and business active city on Earth is Paris, capital of Europe, capital of science, fashion, lot of history more than your shitty usa could imagine, best traffic system, much more safer than Nyc and La Defence biggest business district in Europe.
Dmytry B Shit an angry anti USA person
8:30 top center that high building. what in the world ? doesn't fit the city at all..who allowed this monstrocity ?
You mean 432 Park Ave? That's only the beginning, soon there will be a sea of super tall skinny billionaire condos. Look up Steinway tower and central park tower, they will be built by 2020.
8:25 Who the hell allowed that monstruosity on the right to be built ? o__o
SCharlesDennicon • the skinny one?
Yup ^^;
I feel like being in china. No one follows the lanes. No biker follow the lights.
You mean every big city on earth?
这是美国纽约
Ues is actully cheaper then the uws tribeca is where some wealthy people live
show china in 4k please
ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ639
Dude almost hit the truck driver and the other dude that got off the van with clothes. Watch out for pedestrians my friend.
show China please
New York is very bad... we can't even drive our car !!!!
Then don't drive your car. Most people don't there.
Wesley Tran why
Well look at the roads. Reckless taxi drivers, stoplights every intersection. Lots of pedestrians. No Lane adherence. Also there is probably expensive parking. It's more fiscally smart to just use the subway/take the taxis/walk to your destinations.
nobody drives bro! I live in Jersey and driven many times in the city, but it's less stressful if you take mass transit. Granted there are headaches with as well, but most people don't drive in, because it can be stressful as hell. Patience is key in the city if your driving. Or get a bike and stroll the city. Just my 2cents
Salvatore Spilletti gotta be crazy to pay that $15 toll
traffic is horrible in nyc and its very cold, rainy and lot of crimes there
Dmytry B : "lots of crime"? That's not correct. For an island with a daytime population of probably 14 million, I find it very safe.
the city is beautiful but i don't know way in the roads america are destroyed
Old, weathered, crushed by heavy trucks, cracked by icy winter, and restored a little at a time.
thanks for explaining bro :-)
They've been there for about 100 years they were one of the first modern roads in the world
show me China in 4K man
nyc in usa may be best in world is Paris, city with 2100 years history, so shut up yanks. buying french cars in US
NYC IS BY FAR BETTER THEN YOUR PARIS AND WHOLE LOT MORE INVESTED, YOUR SO DUMB YOU THINK MANHATTAN IS THE CITY WHEN ITS THE BOROUGH WITH IN THE CITY. LMAOOO
paris better
Old and dirty looking for being such an affluent area.
boriiiingggg, gres boxes like all citys in US.
European cities look similar too lol. Zurich looks like Dublin which looks like a smaller Berlin they all just have trains that run through them. Sad how US can build hundreds of cities especially since Europe has thousands of years on it. US cities arent the same btw you'd know if you actually go.
in Paris life much more better, nyc is too polluted with lot of crimes.
You don't know that, you've never been to New York. Also, Paris is JUST as filthy as New York and probably MORE crime infested with all the gypsies and pick-pockets, and the Metro smells much worse.
have you ever been in Paris? no? its your wrong opinion, nyc just big fashion created ghetto, Paris is much more comfortable and luxurious for life
Dmytry B Then why is there more billionaires and millionaires in NYC? Why is NYC a More important financial center than Paris? Paristan is boring.
what a joke, millioners. Paris is a city with great history, capital of fashion, art, finance center etc.... if you like Mumbai live there, but why lot of indians live in France? thinking about that.
nyc is just nice surburb to compare with paris.
nyc nyc. boring city with horrible traffic jams all 24 hours, Paris the best city in the world.
nyc nyc. boring city with horrible traffic jams all 24 hours, Paris the best city in the world.
Paris is the same buildings copied and pasted all through out. Definition of boring.
nyc its cartoon city there are no life there
i dont hate nyc, i just telling truth, Paris much more gourgeous and elegant and beautiful than nyc, much more richer, safety and friendly.
