The Dark Side of Lower Manhattan Walking Tour

[@charlesmicheaux4121]

As a Black America I really appreciate your commentary on the slave mart in NYC. I've never heard of anyone speaking of this before. You force us to subscribe with your brilliance! I'm tuned in!!!

[@Peakfreud]

Brother I'm from NYC and use to work on Wallstreet , there was a Slave Burial Ground I use pass everyday on my way to work. I use to Work for Goldman Sachs, Spiritually I couldn't handle it and walked away from a six figure salary I stop telling stories from the inside because it fell on deaf ears, and my friends would dismiss them, they were so far removed from the places people and thing I was prevy too That it sounds like a SiFi or Folk Tale Story to them. Working there I saw first hand that Satan is very real...

[@christinajones7696]

@@Peakfreud Wow! I would like to hear your stories.

[@Peakfreud]

@@christinajones7696 It would sound like science fiction ... But I'll tell you one thing to see how you'll digested it.. The Probabilty of World Trade Center Bombings were discussed yrs and yrs before it actually happened. At the time, in 90's it was like "Yeah Right never happen" in 2021 30yrs later it's a conspiracy theory 🤷‍♂️ I'm uncomfortable talking about some of the stuff, it's just one of those things you'd have to be there . I was there, before, during and after.

[@KillahBartt]

You could literally go on KZbin and see other black people talking about it

[@juhumamamam3768]

@@Peakfreud so it was discussed? What now?

[@yusufhasaan8781]

I interviewed for a job in lower manhattan. The energy down there felt very heavy and dark. It Makes sense now with the history and everything that happened.

[@Queerpunx]

Loving these "Dark Side of" series. More more!

Interesting stories of lower Manhattan, and thanks for keeping it real regarding NYC's role during slavery. Great tour as usual, Tom.

[@misshelena6930]

[@Yvonne2tango]

Entertaining and interesting facts. Better the other nyc tour guide video I’ve seen, truly.

[@francescabrown1863]

As a native new yorker who frequents the fidi/lower manhattan, this is truly fascinating!! So wonderful to learn all of these "hidden" bits of NY history! Thank you for the work you have put in to provide the audience with interesting and quality content.

[@cheekyj6441]

Thanx Tom. Love ❤️ your videos. Can't wait to get back to NY. ❤️ from Sydney Australia.

[@US_Joe]

Great videos and documentaries. I glad I discovered you. thank you sir!

[@1Classy]

You always bring the most interesting information that even we native New Yorkers aren't aware of. Still catching up on past videos. So glad I came across your channel. I'm hooked!! Thank you for what you're doing here.

Went to college with Tom he is easily one of the most intelligent, interesting and freaking funniest people I’ve ever met. Go Gators 🐊 🙌

Your the best. I miss my home town so much. You’ve taken me back home.

[@outdoorinfluencer]

Interesting video!! Really enjoyed watching this video!!

[@Gnatn]

Loved this video! I used to live down in that area during college and it was so neat to see all of these spots after so long. Great information!

[@METALFACEDOOMXXXX]

Great job bro love your videos 👍🏾

[@MONET8iAM]

My grandpa told me about the Subway Vigilante earlier this year. A few years ago there was an art installation in the old Domino Sugar factory in Williamsburg highlighting the slaves who worked on the sugar. There were statues made of sugar including slave children and a huge mammy-spinx. It smelled terrible in there, but it was a great exhibition. The artist is Kara Walker.

[@penskepc2374]

He wasn't a vigilante, his life was threatened and he defended himself.

[@MONET8iAM]

@@penskepc2374 I’m just going by the name that they referred to him as. I guess they named him that because he was prepared, idk 🤷🏾‍♀️.

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

@@MONET8iAM I haven't been over there in a while. I thought they were taking that down the sugar factory. I guess not yet? Surprised they haven't put up luxury condos yet

[@MONET8iAM]

@@user-nj1zu2nf1x actually yes. They’ve built around it. There are luxury buildings and a cute little park on the waterfront called Domino Park. Not sure what they’ve done (if anything) with that particular building. I also haven’t been out there in almost a year, so I’m not sure if the photos on google are just renderings or not.

[@user-nj1zu2nf1x]

@@MONET8iAM interesting, thanks. Will have to take a ride over there on a day it's not freezing

[@MaltedJacker]

Most excellent channel ! I can’t stop watching. Such interesting history.

[@lilly8090]

I was born in the city of New York,(Roosevelt Hospital ) graduated from Jane Addams Vocational High School, and I am embarrassed and upset that I never heard about any of this in my history classes! Thank You Tom D!

[@joeygio]

I was waiting for the lush vocals and Tom delivered! I truly love wagon wheel

[@efremrivera6776]

Loved the vídeo! Thought you where posting the Foto Op, with my fat ass....🤣. Thanks for taking a break from recording to chat a bit, hopefully next time can book the tour. Love your content and should have a lot more viewers for sure! Gotta do some more Whatatown!

[@stina7]

Not sure how I stumbled upon this video, but this is absolute gold. New subscriber and thumbs up from Boston!!

[@onetruecalling]

Great tour of the dark side. I remember the days of random muggings well. Seems like we may be headed back there again

[@mredible475]

Awesome Tom. I’d like to hear your take on the tunnels of NYC and what’s beneath Grand Central!

Hi Tom. Another great video. I'm glad you mentioned Henry Clay Frick, since I'm from Pittsburgh, where he also had a mansion and was laid to rest. Keep making more interesting videos.

The absolute best videos on KZbin

[@thepartydontstarttil]

As always… thanks for the education ✊🏽

[@michaelfranchek331]

Trivia: at the 2:04 mark… the 3 windows above the pock marks was JP Morgan’s private conference room, overlooking the corner of Wall and Broad Streets. You had to pass through his private office to enter it. I managed the company’s move from 23 to 60 Wall Street in 1989

[@rainypath96]

He died in 1913 so I imagine that was his former office

[@42papyrus]

How the hell did this become my favorite YT channel?? Great stuff Tom...and break a leg kiddo!
