The best for Throggs Neck is the post office? Houses are ON the water but let's take a look at the post office.

Thanks for visiting and taking the time to comment. The neighborhood is, indeed, scenic (especially along the water). But considering the ongoing "debate" about whether or not the neighborhood should carry its original "Throggs Neck" moniker or the Robert Moses-ified "Throgs Neck", I thought it was worthwhile to capture and highlight the name as it appears on the post office. At the very least, it seems we agree on the proper nomenclature! Cheers!

The Bronx is named after a savvy Swedish immigrant & merchant/business guy, by the name of Jonas Bronck, born in Sweden in 1600. In mid June 1639 he came over to New Amsterdam after crossing the Atlantic on a dutch ship, named "De Brandt van Troyen". Eventually, Mr. Bronck bought land from the Native Americans, expanded & did very well for himself & his family, who was referred to as the Bronck's. Hence = The Bronx! Ace Frehley of KISS grew up in the Fordham section. Serial killer David Berkowitz grew up in Soundview & Co-Op City.

Disagree. There are many more major metropolitan areas in the US with significantly higher crime rates than The Bronx. Also, there are plenty of places in The Bronx that are very desirable to live in.

You know why they're building in the Bronx because Manhattan is astronomical living in Manhattan if you want to live in the city the Bronx is the cheapest way used to be all Italian-American built that City but that's what's happening right now is that Manhattan is too expensive they're finally thinking that the Bronx is cheapest real estate you can

The video begins with a photo of the Third Avenue Bridge and proceeds northward along 3rd Ave, all the way through the South Bronx, from E 134th St up to its terminus at E Fordham Rd and Fordham Plaza, before turning west, then south on Valentine Ave. If you look at the captions on the lower right of each image, you will see the progression of cross streets along 3rd Ave, beginning at Bruckner Blvd. You can also use this link to see every photo I took that day, tagged by GPS, on a map: cityneighborhoodsnyc.smugmug.com/Individual-Photo-Shoots/2023/The-Bronx-July-23-2023

Thank you for your feedback! Based on my research, I chose to represent the area you refer to as "Allerton" as the more specific subsections of "Bronxwood," "Olinville," and "Laconia." If I were to revise my maps, how would you define Allerton's boundaries? Also, in your opinion, what would make its inclusion more precise than my current maps which separate it into those two neighborhoods I mentioned above? I appreciate any feedback you can provide. Thanks! The map can be found here: www.cityneighborhoods.nyc/the-bronx-neighborhoods
