    In this video I explore the section of Parkchester in the Bronx. Parkchester is a planned community developed by the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. It was originally designated as self-contained rental community for middle class families. It was built from 1939 to 1942. The area is really diverse and has a large South Asian community with other nationalities. It is served by the 6 train. Hope you enjoy this video, stay tune for more.

    So good to see Zara's and Macy's is still there after all these years, My mother often walked us from Rosedale Ave to shop there. God I miss The Bronx.

    I was raised in Bronxdale but, my first apt was at 14 Metropolitan oval in the late 80s early 90s... loved it.

    It's a good neighborhood. It has it's downside but, it's better than other neighborhoods in The Bronx. I lived there from 2004 to 2011. It's heavily diverse and one of the most affordable neighborhoods in NYC. What you're seeing is writing between the Indian and Bangladesh population which is large in Parkchester.

    Thank you for posting. I grew up there 1950s to 1980s. Glad they have kept the community up. The complex is laid out in four quadrants (north,south, east and west,) with the oval as the center. You entered at the south quadrant - closest to the train. the Macys has been cut in half. It used to extend all the way to the oval. The Marshalls used to be a movie theatre. NY Bus Service ran an express bus to Manhattan.
    Zaro’s original store was where the Boston Market is as Hugh Grant Circle (before the parents passed and their kids expanded it. Not it is hoity toity and located in Grand Central Station.).

    Aug 2023 - You really gave a fine street wise tour with great narration. I used to live near Parkchester in the 60s. It still looks like a clean, safe neighborhood. Or else the sidewalk vendors would not be there. Did you see a motel right in Parkchester? So a visitor has a place to stay for awhile. Again, you are an energetic guide! Thanks!

    I lived in one of the Ovals back in the early 80s. It wasn't many blacks then and we dealt with a lot of racism. But overall it was an awesome neighborhood. It was clean and a lot of the people were very nice. We were steps away from Macy's.

    @miguelalind3768 Před rokem +1

    You should have walked through the southside of Parkchester. You passed it by Jerry’s Pizza, but I would love for you to walk through and give your opinion then head over walk through the north side, which is beautiful.
