In this video I explore a neighborhood I have always wanted to visit. This neighborhood is Brownsville in Brooklyn, and it has a reputation of being one of the most dangerous neighborhoods in NYC. Lots of friends warned me not to go there and film, but I am a curious guy and I don't believe in the propaganda of the news, I know there is way more good people than bad people so I decided to check out the neighborhood. Brownsville is pretty residential, and its main street Pitkin Avenue is vibrant and has a lot of stores. The neighborhood is like many other neighborhoods in NYC, and I had a good time exploring it. Hope you enjoy this video, stay tune for more.

They aren’t wrong for telling you to steer clear lol, but thank you so much for this one, Manny. Brownsville is near and dear to my heart as my mother and grandmother grew up there. My great-grandmother came from the Deep South to Brownsville for better opportunities. Her grandparents were slaves. I remember spending a lot of time out in Brownsville when I was kid. They really are gentrifying some stuff out there. I appreciate you, Manny! Keep blessing us with this content!
Really nice to hear a little history about your great grandmother and how she came to Brownsville, your welcome.
Back in the 70 my aunt use to live on Chester st block party's in the 80
Stand by everone, a Manny Power walk is uppon us hold on to your wigs 😂
I used to take the 3 train everyday to go home after school. I went to the PS 189 on rockaway. I was on Sutter Ave/Rutland Road everyday! The neighborhood changed alot! To be fair, that was about 25 years ago.
I was impressed and enjoyed exploring the neighborhood
Fact remember the weed spot on the corner of Rutland and rockaway
Q Bernard and fire just to name a few 🇯🇲
I'm from Brownsville Brooklyn born and raised.I grew up on Livonia Avenue and Mother Gaston (also known as Stone Ave ) VaN Dyke houses is where I lived for years . I remember going to school on rockaway avenue/Hegamen ave PS 275. Stay safe and visualant while in brownsville. Brownsville surly isnt for the weak.
Thank you I will, I still enjoyed the neighborhood
Good Sunday Evening Manny
Hi friends, I’m from Brooklyn. Pitkin Avenue was one area my family moved to back in the 60’s. I have to say it has changed a lot. Looks good 👍 thanks for sharing ❤
Hey Saby, that's good to know, your welcome

Happy St Patrick’s evening
Hi Manny 👋 This was a great walk ! It was interesting to see all the new apartments throughout the neighborhood! It was developed very nice 🍒.
I was impressed with the neighborhood
Happy Sunday Manny, happy St Patricks !!!
Thank you Michelle
Awesome Video 📹
Thank you brother
A friend and I just spent a couple days in Brownsville and EVERYONE was nice! Granted, most of our running around was in the day time. I got on a citi-bike and went looking for the "dancing crossing guard" but never found her😢. Then I rode that bike over to Tompkins Ave in Bedstuy where I'd stayed last year and met some great people. The Uber driver that drove me to the airport was surprised about my bike ride! 😂
Maybe bc I'm a middle-aged white lady! 😂😂😂
You did a great video!! It's looking a lot better than it use to!
Thank you Fal, I was impressed too. The neighborhood looks a lot better than what I thought.
@@MannyExploresVlogIs gentrification slowly creeping up on this neighborhood?
@divasamai2251 I didn't saw much gentrification, it has the original vibe but I heard its making its way there
@@MannyExploresVlog I thought so. I was wondering because of the new buildings and the vacant homes. Thanks for your input.
Tilden projects stand up!
You should do upper west side the brown stones are perfect with the mixture of big apartment buildings
Yeah heard about that neighborhood too.. but it doesn't look to bad. Good walk, plenty of stores and restaurants around the area! Lots of apartments..
Indeed wasn't as bad as they make it seem, but I guess it depends what part of the neighborhood too.
Goodnight Manny 🌃📲👍🏽
Goodnight migdalia
So quite and upgraded now compared to what it was in the 80-90s when I was out there
I could only imagine how rough it was back then, I’m sure a lot has changed. I didn’t live out here around that time
Great video. Neighborhood looks good. You’re demystifying a neighborhood that gets a lot of negative publicity.
Thats my goal to show the positivity of the neighborhood
I stay clear of Brownsville bruh.
Well most cowards do. This man ain't no coward. Stop hating cause u ain't got no guts
I'm sure Manny is very strong Man. Who I can tell by his Information and Knowledge knows his hoods Plus, Manny knows Street Smarts.
God Bless You Manny Abundantly! Excellent Work ! Keep going! MUCH LOVE FROM 🇨🇦🇨🇦😎❤✌️❤️✌️

Brownsville is good as far as some people you run into but it can be ugly not wishing bad on you or anyone else but be safe brother
Thank you brother

@@MannyExploresVlog ok awesome I think Hollis would be nice or SouthJamaica
yo what the fuck I grew up on sutter ave thats whats up😳
Bruh it’s not Pitkin Ave, it’s Pitkin!!!!!
Better than Harlem
really good stream. however, after watching this, so much for all the woke folks who go on and on and on talking about how the city as well as everybody else like developers never do anythi6ng for such black or brown areas. as is, there are parks, police patrols, well kept streets and everything including the low income city project properties looked well maintained. you can't do much about those folks who don't maintain their interior spaces. it actually looks somewhat suburban out in Brownsville. all of this is about the physical environment but what is the level of crime and violence? if the stats are high,
no one can blame it on the environment. it is not some ignored slum. if there is high crime and violence you would have to blame it on neighborhood culture. sorry 'woke folks' but that means certain folks need to be weeded out.
Thank you ! For explaining the History. Never been.
Looks like Cabbage Town Regent Park Hood in Toronto.
Looks like Parkdale Art District in Toronto.
I watched your Video on the Brox.
Going look for Harlem if you have any video coverage.
Thank you Again from ❤❤🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦✌️❤️✌️❤️👍🏻❤️👍🏻❤️👍🏻❤️🥂🍷🍹🍶
I play basketball game with ya ! 🏀🏀

Your welcome, I have a few videos in Harlem.
@@MannyExploresVlog Love how you are Informed History What the Hood is all about.
Excellent Work Manny 😎❤👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@ELizabeth_Beeza I appreciate it
@@MannyExploresVlog Your 100% right Main Stream Media will only show the Negative about the Hood. The Same with Toronto Hoods.
I'm in City of Mississauga, Ontario 1 hour drive from Toronto.
I shared your Channel with a good friend of mine his Stream. TRAVELFUN69 CHANNEL CZcams from Toronto
