In this video, I explore a few neighborhoods in Bronx, NYC. I start my walk from Parkchester which is a very diverse neighborhood in the Bronx. Then I start making my way to another neighborhood called Westchester Square which is pretty residential. The neighborhood is served by the 6 train subway line. After exploring a bit of Westchester Square, I head to East Tremont Ave and start making my way to another neighborhood, Throggs Neck. The neighborhood is pretty residential and gives you a suburban feel. There are also shops and restaurants along East Tremont Ave, and it has beautiful park with waterfront. Hope you enjoy this video stay tune for more.

16:15. - St. Raymond’s Cemetary. Famous people buried there - Mary Mallon AKA Typhoid Mary, jazz singer Billie Holiday, Frankie Lymon (singer from the 1950s and ‘60s), Lois Nettleton (actress), Hector ‘Macho’ Camacho.
WOW..I grew up in Throggs neck near the cemetery and never knew that!!
My family is buried there. My living family mom uncles aunts also have a spot there reserved. As do I as of now. Not sure if I’m keeping it yet. I have a family now so things may change
Born and raised in the BX in 1964. Lived in different parts but the South Bronx will always be in my ❤.
Manny, I'm 60 now and grew up in Throggs Neck. As a teenager, I hung out in Parkchester and Westchester square. Took the #6 train to the city more times than I can count. I even went to that High School near the Square called Lehman H.S. (the building built over the highway). The highway your passing over near the school is the Hutchinson River Pky. The bus that runs up E. Tremont Ave. is the #40 bus. That highway you passed (after the cemetery was the Bruckner Expressway. You'll get to I-95 when you get deeper into Throggs Neck. That "Frank Bee's" store at 17:38 has been there since I was a kid. You missed SO much! There are areas like Edgewater and Silver Beach that are part of Throggs Neck. At the end of your video, near the cemetery, that housing project is called "Throggs Neck Houses". I grew up there. Just thought I'd share some info from my old area! Also, that "other bridge" you saw was the Throggs Neck Bridge that also goes into queens.
That abc store used to be a Woolworth. Back in the day. They still had a counter for fountain drinks and food growing up. Once that was gone it was never the same
nice bronx visit
Thank you Joey
13:20. The building on your right (our left) is Herbert H. Lehman High School. I graduated from there in (drum roll). - 1977.
I also did in 1977
went to Lehman from 88-92. The bus was either the 40 or 42 or on a good day you could walk home...by Lafayette and Tremont.
Love The Bronx 🖤 Spent my teen years there
My old stomping grounds St Helenas grammar school and church..Castle hill ave..tremont,Westchester Sq.
Look clean..it was bad in the 70's when it was burning down!
Great video. I was born and raised in the areas you walked thru. Took me back to my childhood.
Awesome, I appreciate it.
Thanks for visiting my neighborhood & saying such nice things about Throgs Neck
Morris park is named for the racetrack that was their in the 1800'S
You should walk the South Bronx maybe not the best neighborhood but it would be great to here your take about its old Puerto Rican heritage. Also since your an old school hip hop fan it’s the birth place of hip hop, they’ve even got a hip hop museum now.
I walked South Bronx 2 years ago but im due for another visit, lots of cool things that are am icon of NYC in South Bronx.
Bronx is definitely a quiet neighborhood.. It looks like a great day for a walk. 👍 I've never fully explored Bronx, just drove through it a few times..
The Bronx is huge, a lot of places to explore.
Used to get a hair cute 10:05 at that red sign store used be be called Reno’s. There was a game store near it as well as a fish place. To the left down the road is McDonald’s on willamsbridge road. That was my main McDonald’s. Across to the left at the church my grandmother worked there when I was younger. This was my neighborhood riding bikes down the square. Going to Lehman high school to visit. Back in the 80s early 90s this was my life and great when growing up. Now days it’s nothing like it once was. People moved out and new people moved in. It’s not what it used to be. But still my home at one point
Now this is a great walking tour of the Bronx, I’d love to take a stroll around this neighborhood.
You should, it's a really lovely neighborhood.
Cool you're in my neighborhood 😁
Look forward to seeing it.😁
lived with my grandparents when young in the 50s at 453 East 160th Street
Awesome
There were plenty of times I would walk from Lehman HS to Otis Ave (across the street from St Benedict’s Church).
Hola manny good to see you
From westchester SQ. to Throgg Neck projects is a long walk bro.
I know but a good walk
De@@MannyExploresVlogDepends.. Done it a millions times for many different reasons
U passed my block in Throggs neck .. probably the best neighborhood as far as peaceful living in concerned. I originally grew up on fordham which is the complete opposite... just commented to say, those business u mentioned were closed due to pandemic, are actually still open. Everything on that side of the bronx is almost always closed on sunday and everything closes at around 6pm besides restaurants and some delis. good work on the video
City island is nice too...
Best seafood in N.Y. !
Waiting🌹❤️
Very nice 😊
Thank you
Good vid.
Thank you
I went to that school over the hutchinson riv pkwy...Herbert H Lehman hs.
Me too. I grew up in Throggs Neck!
Best friendddddd😎😎😎
The Bronx is my favorite borough I'm from there it's beautiful asf my second favorite place is Queen's 😊
Indeed, the Bronx has many hidden gems and its unique beauty.
@Manny Explores I'm glad you make exploring videos in The Bronx so many people never like to see the beautiful neighborhood's in it . I used to chill in parkchester so much and zerega all the way to throggs neck there's a lot of hidden gems in that borough especially in my old area in Pelham parkway mace Ave has parts of the area lined with houses going towards gun hill which is really nice looking it gives a suburban feel
Hi there! Where are your family from P.R.? I use to live at the Throgg's Projects until 1975. Love the videos. It's bringing back memories.
I was raised in Cabo Rojo
Cool! I have family from my father's side in Mayaguez.
I live in throggs neck... that's Trumps golf course!!!
Trump does not own that!! I use to play in there as a kid before that was there when there were trails for dirtbikes and abandoned stolen cars starting fires hanging out getting high with my boys and bringing girls back there. The city owns that but they use Trumps name
Very nice I visited
Hey manny
Hey Diana
Damn you are far from the square from where you got off. Could have took the train right to the square itself
