Walking Glen Cove, Nassau County, Long Island, New York

[@alliemcentee1793]

Thanks!

[@ActionKid]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@alwaysniccole3810]

I’m originally from Glen Cove.. You’re bringing tears to my eyes.. I used to work at the Theater when it was first built. I’ve walked those steps going to school. I’ve left way before most of those places existed..

[@cindyyg1050]

I would like to thank you for this! I moved down south after i had my son & ive missed the sight of my hometown. This makes me home sick but also bring me so much comfort! Thank you again 😩❤️

[@nanvolentine9110]

Glen Cove born and raised. I wish you could have seen it back in the 60's, it was a blast.

GRETINGS FROM BRAZIL! 50 YEARS AGO IN 1970-73 I WAS A CYTIZEN OF THIS NICE LITLE TOWN!!!!

[@OBAMNASODA761]

Wow what a beautiful area. My family the Stancos settled in this area hundred years ago. They named a park after them. My great great grandmother had a brother that lived out here and with her cousins

[@H3rtZf0RSTURN10L0S]

I live here and I’m proud.

[@DiscoverHudsonValley]

I love that Glenn Cove beach, it's kind of a hidden gem. Long Beach is just too damn crowded these days. Another great vid AK, thank you!

[@alwaysniccole3810]

One N in Glen… It used to be Beautiful

[@pelehound]

Born at the Glen Cove Hospital a zillion years ago. Moved from the area when I was 13. My first ever purchased records - 45's in those long ago days - were from a Glen Cove record store. I think they were 78 cents or so. My mom would take me there about once a month.

[@ActionKid]

Wow, those prices seem unreal now!

[@nanvolentine9110]

We had two, both on School St. Woolworth and Colony Card shop sold records, too.

[@pelehound]

@@nanvolentine9110 OK. This was in, are you sitting down, as early as 1966. Definitely not Woolworth's. Could they have sold cards? Maybe.

[@nanvolentine9110]

@@pelehound School Street Music, had records as well as instruments and sheet music and further down School St. was the record store, I think it was a Record World for a time.

Thx much for the info for the trip down memory lane. Wonderful memories.

Thanks for the memories! I lived in Roosevelt. N.Y. years ago and would often 'getaway' to Glen Cove.

[@ActionKid]

Very nice!

[@JoeHernandez1210]

This was awesome. I haven't been there in years. I have some friends that live there. Thanks

[@ActionKid]

It was a very nice area to visit!

[@cashtimevideo1501]

A nice quiet, clean town. I'm sure it looks even better in sunny weather!

[@alwaysniccole3810]

It was and probably is.. In the 70’s early 80’s was an amazing time.. When Spring came and you heard the Woodpeckers lol

[@philipmcneill6204]

These excursions out to all the towns and cities beyond Queens are so much fun. I've learned a lot.

[@ActionKid]

It's fun to see a bit of Long Island!

[@MikeHunt-qc6fn]

Love your work AK, your vids always make my day😍

[@ActionKid]

[@WiseAssGamer]

Hey great video, I like Glen Cove. I was there last week. I hiked at Welwyn Preserve. Oh and at the ferry terminal. That goes to and from Manhattan. Not sure if anyone else told you that. 🤘😎👍

[@28Daisho]

Well...it looks kinda deserted fa now but looks nice n peaceful place to live here. And its quiet too..I like it alot. Thanks for taking us here.

[@fasteddiep43]

I will tell you, both Nassau and Suffolk counties North shore is unbelievable. Theres many towns and villages that make an awesome sight seeing walk or bike ride. Great choice with Glen cove. Huntington is another great place. From the sound just keep walking south.

[@carries.9919]

I love how you told the history of the area. It's nice to take a walk without a million people around. Love your videos 😊😊😍 We would to see the mansions also.

[@ActionKid]

My pleasure!

[@sheila6905]

It looks like a lovely place to live, thanks for showing it.

[@ActionKid]

It was a nice and charming city!

[@GoddenTusiime]

so clean and fresh

[@bkirbach]

Spent many years as a member of the yacht club (Hempstead Harbour Club) where your journey began. It's amazing that those apartments finally got built because that area for the longest time was considered a toxic site!!! PS I grew up with your dad and lived across the street from him back in Astoria!

[@Own.lee.who.men.516]

Hi, just wanted to mention that singer Ashanti is from Glen Cove. Long Island. Also, there are more than "two cities" in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Finally, although the residents don't like to admit it, Brooklyn and Queens are on Long Island. They are located on the Western end, closest to NYC. To my B&Q friends...if you don't agree, check the map! 😉👍✌ P.S. Will you walk through North Bellmore next please. The L.I.R.R. stops there.

[@ActionKid]

Cool to know about Ashanti! I checked Wikipedia and there are only two cities on Long Island: Glen Cove and Long Beach.

[@timothysantana492]

i was just gonna say the same thing about ashanti and if you notice on mark 37:44 is where ashanti film her video to "happy" where she in the hair salon and come out side dancing back in year 2002.

Love traveling with you Action Kid. I am already familiar about NYC even thou I still not gone there physically. Thanks for sharing. Take care always bro.

[@ActionKid]

Appreciate you watching my videos about NYC!

That was so cute seeing the Momma Goose with her babies . ☺️

[@ryhorecords]

Can you walk Great Neck, Nassau County down Middle Neck road? I have not seen my hometown in a long time it would mean a lot to see it

[@ActionKid]

I could try it one day!

[@deniscoursen5022]

I have lived here since 1963 still here.

[@phantastik3389]

Wow! its been years since ive seen Glen Cove

It was my first time!

You can rent an apartment in Harbor Landing from just under 3k a month for a studio to just over $5k a month for the largest, lol. Also, you were lucky to escape with your life when you encountered those geese. 😉

[@eddiew2325]

why not just rent a beachfront property at the Hamptons then?

[@ActionKid]

Haha, that goose was very dangerous! I really thought it was going to charge at me.

[@yunonufc7970]

Amazing walkthrough but u forgot to mansion my barbershop next to paradise bakery lol its all good, now that i look at the cities reminds me red redemption like old school

Yes, lots of history here!

[@elizabethdiaz5434]

Wow!Take a care of your own! Safety! ActionKid very nice place quality! 😮👣☁🌚👍 Thank you for video showing!

[@hellskitchen360]

Love your videos AK! I’m confused as to how you got to Garvies point. If you didn’t come from the train station how do you get to Glen Cove? Do you start your journey with an Uber and then take the train home? If your wouldn’t mind explaining, that would be great.

[@rubygreta1]

Since you are getting around the NY Metro, I highly suggest you take Metro North to Beacon in Dutchess County. There is a one-mile Main Street that is pretty amazing.

[@karenfromNH]

Hi AK, great tour. It would be awesome to see the mansions at some point.

[@TechExploresNYC]

The preview is a view of bathroom? KZbin has the best algorithm ever!! I would say this is as close to ActionKid's original style of videos if that's what some people are looking for (long form video exploring a town with a narrated info of the area). In case some people ask "why don't you give a proper tour of the place?"

[@ActionKid]

Haha, I saw that preview too and just had to chuckle What is wrong with you KZbin!

[@bradbuffett2094]

My only memories from 55 years ago are Eisenstadts (Hot Wheels!) and Carvel.

Love GC! You should do LV and bayville too!!

[@nyssarachellenelson353]

Good god how they've destroyed my hometown...it looks like queens ffs. I haven't been back home for much of anything since I moved to the Poconos 4 years ago but yeah...this is NOTHING like the GC I grew up in during the 80s and 90s or even the GC I lived in within the last decade. Super disgusting how much money the local politicians made off being in bed with RXR (the developer who destroyed our hometown).

[@RawFitChris]

Spot on.

[@SDSOverfiend]

So why didn't you stay?

Wld luv for you to make a video of your favorite areas of new York (whts your favorite part of Manhattan, Brooklyn, bronx, queens, long Island) where wld you choose to live if you could choose any place in nyc, etc

When you mentioned Glen Cove I I think of the Alfred Hitchcock movie North by Northwest. A very unhappy experience for Cary Grant in Glen Cove.

Cool! It does sound like it could be a movie.

[@frgpilot]

Do you do any research before going to these places?

[@Paretozen]

Lang leve Nassau! Hoezee hoezee!

[@gentashehu8046]

Why though in such nice new construction areas , the electric wires not underground?!

[@michellerosa8634]

I wonder how much they charge to park if you're coming from Suffolk county . If you're from Nassau county and come to Suffolk county to go to the beach they charge them and arm and a leg. Alot of places on Long Island we can't go to because they are in different townships.

[@ActionKid]

Wow, I didn't know that!

[@cherylchatterton1265]

You can only get into glen cove beaches if your a resident. Morgan’s beach you can get in if your from locust valley or glen cove.

[@ALLYSMOM05]

You can purchase a seasonal park pass. If you like to go often, it’s worth it. Same with beaches.

Glen Cove was the beginning of the Whaling District

[@ActionKid]

Interesting fact!

[@Ipsa.S]

Why there ain’t any people on the streets in the initial 20 mins near the boat harbour?

[@ActionKid]

The weather probably didn't help and the fact that the area is still under construction.

Lmao they call Mercadante Beach "toxic" as in "let's go get wasted at toxic". The EPA superfund site is just down the road.

[@RawFitChris]

Do you remember "Giuseppe The Tailor? Back in the early 80s he called Glen Cove "the asshole of the world." Man was he right. But if that's true then Manhattan (where I originally grew up until 12, is (certainly now) the "asshole of the world."
