A Look at New York's Largest Development Ever - $20BN Hudson Yards

[@Aaronaa4]

Hudson Yards redefines Manhattan’s skyline, but the project is very controversial! What do you think?

[@dominikjakaj1999]

why controversial?

[@Sudupe16]

@@dominikjakaj1999 Because a lot of people think it's a waste of money for tourists.

[@Sudupe16]

i think it's a great addition to the city, really adds to the skyline. I'm excited for the observation deck.

[@seanmccann3623]

SuperDuperBoy/SDB I thought it was privately funded?

[@Sudupe16]

@@seanmccann3623 Yeah it is, another reason is because people think it's just for the rich... Which is partially true but alot of people can still get jobs there.

[@katjerouac]

I was just driving by today through the gw bridge. Almost an unrecognizable skyline compared to 2 years ago when I left. What in the hell. The skyline is looking beautiful. What a cluster of buildings.

I don’t like it. New York City just doesn’t have the same charm as it did before 9/11.

[@miniena7774]

MichaelTheGamer 2.0 Sure it does. Crime isn’t rampant and the skyline and street gleam with newfound cleanliness. Don’t like it? You aren’t welcome.

[@mike_404]

Minien Wow! I can just tell right now you’re not from New York! So many New Yorkers were forced to move out because of these trash buildings ideas and raising rents.

[@ronayofficial7820]

You took some great shots of Hudson Yards! Thanks for the video and footage

[@PHCuber]

RoNayOfficial I think those are stock footage

[@Aaronaa4]

The drone footage is, but the other 6 videos taken from ground level, and the timelapse were taken by me in November!

[@PHCuber]

Skyscrapers & MegaProjects wow that’s nice!

[@PHCuber]

I also went there

[@Sudupe16]

It'll be even more amazing once phase 2 is complete! Great video.

A 7 story mall?! Good lord. I need to visit this place. The area looks really cool.

[@nomedigaasi]

Beautiful and amazing architecture!

[@thuscabe9148]

Oh my god, I had no idea they were building this. Everything about this project looks amazing and even the event hall is something I have never seen before. This is so impressive. Great video as always, really informing. :)

[@randalelliott5109]

They look great & all but still love my art deco,classical,beaux arts architecture.

@Gery A Amen to that. Just wish Architect firms would start build them again.

THE POWERFUL city of New York

[@Marchant2]

If NYC is trying to make itself the greatest city on the planet, it’s doing a great job of it.

[@mike_404]

No. They will never reach cities like Dubai or Tokyo in this field. They should’ve just stayed with their iconic skyscraper lineup. NYC just isn’t what it used to be..

[@Franeeky]

[@MrAJWorks]

Great vid👍👍👍

[@michael-bz5qz]

It's really beautifully on the ground level because it connects to the Highline which is long garden above the streets of new york, and you can see inside the office building or fancy hotels

[@amadine770]

What an amazing way to respond to losing an Olympic bid - see what has come out of it- a new future for the Big Apple-better than the remnants from the Olympics that would have taken place.

[@compassbrian]

Philip Amadi nah NYC needs more park/sport space as well. But yeah, great response to not biting into the corruption and bribes the IOC would want.

[@greutera]

Wish we had more iconic architecture here in Denver

[@LadyLiberty-c8i]

Pure amazing

[@deannawoody9621]

Beautiful video

[@BradThePitts]

Better than the former train yard that used to be there. WAIT - it's still there - underground, and they built over it! BRILLIANT

Magnificent!

[@Sudupe16]

According to dezeen, BIG's design for the 2 world trade center has been scrapped and they're going back to the Norman Foster design.

[@ssadvweld1]

I love it. Interesting fact about it replacing the 2020 Olympics. I think 16 buildings may be a bit much. We'll see... I can't wait to see The Shed in use.

[@edwynrobles5969]

do a video of the new tribune tower coming to chicago!! love ur vids!!

[@victormiranda6276]

This is what people don't understand Hudson Yard is a new beginning to are future economy is not done 100% Hudson Yard basically the new world trade center.the WTC is a beautiful place and beautiful towers but let's be real people still afraid of what happen on 911 that's why the Hudson Yard will be the future economy of NYC.i remember 4 or 5 years ago that place was empty and just full of construction workers,today and tomorrow you will see more and more people working on those towers that's are new beginning.God bless the Hudson Yard always.

[@ThxForTheMemories]

Those buildings are already completed i think

[@killerpitdbo]

Has it started

[@angelovalavanis2314]

We lost the Olympics? OK, let's build Hudson Yards... 😄

[@The_D0RK_KNIGHT]

Live in NYC, Hudson Yards only caters to tourist and wealthy investors nothing more really. What I did appreciate is the 7 line reaching Jacob Javits Convention center which was convienient for NY comic con mass transit access lol

[@joeyork9891]

7 line built by taxpayers For the rich.. Just like Monaghan station

[@The_D0RK_KNIGHT]

@@joeyork9891 to a degree yeah but as a dude from Queens who works in Manhattan the 7 line has been useful. More so than those Hudson yard skyscrapers that'll mostly empty due to rooms simply bought up by foreign investors to park their wealth. But I get you sentiment

@@The_D0RK_KNIGHT It's all about transporting the slaves in and out trust me.....I'm from queens And worked on the 7line construction. I take the E. Line but can take 7line but won't because of the Corona virus scare..... Btw I'm working at the old post office job.... expanding elevators and escalators to bring people to mall to spend spend.

And let me guess, all the apartments are only available for the ultra rich? Governments shouldn't invest so much money into things that most people won't be able to enjoy.

[@pradyumnashaoo2332]

It's private funded lmao

[@ThomasJr]

I lived in Manhattan, very close to this location, but I had a roommate. Living on your own in Manhattan is very very expensive, if you're not rich expect slums. Even making more than 125K a year, it was really tough for me, Manhattan is not suitable for middle class. Now I live in FL and make much less money. NY is only worth it for the higher pays, but I don't think it's a happy place to live in. I didn't love my time in NY, it's a hard place.

[@isassetuba]

@@titoslounge1946 this is baby steps for the Arabs

[@Sudupe16]

Don't forget New York has the highest residential building and about twice as many buildings over 600 feet. Both cities have very impressive skylines and projects I think.

[@titoslounge1946]

Isaac New York is the economic and financial powerhouse of the world. It represents the most powerful nation to ever exist. It’s a city that combines history with cutting edge technology in will continue to do so for many years. Dubai has rushed urban development plans in a city that requires you to drive everywhere because it’s too hot. Sure the Burj Khalifa is impressive but it’s not difficult to overbuild dozens of ugly uninspired skyscrapers in a desert with nearly unlimited land. Try executing that in the land area NYC is working with. The east thinks they can play catch up by spending tremendous capital on glamour projects. But until these nations actually have human rights for ALL people allowing innovation to thrive, they’re not sniffing the United States and NYC.

[@isassetuba]

@@titoslounge1946 wtf, this has nothing to do with their economies.... The race is for the tallest skyscrapers and the fact is out there thag the Arabs are winning. The American economy is amazing and I haven't questioned that.

[@davidewing36]

MrQbenDanny they’re not alike at all, that’s a stupid comparison

[@leedart]

If you travel this is just a taste of what is average builds in China, EAE, and several other emerging architectural gems, i.e. see Kazakhstan...... so its forgettable on the world stage but is pretty for NYC.

[@patrickrancourt4782]

Billionnaires tourist's trap Too modern for NYC !!!!! It could be fit for european cities like Berlin, Oslo, Stockholm or Paris but définitly not for North America cities Agree or Not ?

[@Silver6533]

I disagree.... I disagree because if you look at where architect in this country is going, it is becoming more modern. Seattle, WA for example is a prime example of new modern buildings. The issue there is most new ones are topping off at 440 feet.

[@alexstevens9101]

NYC is known for pushing the envelope when it comes to skyscrapers. Of course it's not too modern. It's not modern enough!

[@leonelbrava2738]

That's what they said when they built the Empire State Building.
