⁴ᴷ⁶⁰ Walking NYC : Beechurst, Whitestone to Fort Totten Jetty, Bay Terrace, Bayside, Queens

Google Maps Route: goo.gl/maps/wD...
A walk from the Whitestone Plaza strip mall through the quiet neighborhoods of Beechurst, Whitestone, Queens and Bay Terrace, Bayside, Queens to the Fort Totten Jetty.
From Wikipedia:
"Whitestone is an upper-middle-class to upper-class residential neighborhood in the northernmost part of the New York City borough of Queens. The neighborhood proper is located between the East River to the north; College Point and Whitestone Expressway to the west; Flushing and 25th Avenue to the south; and Bayside and Francis Lewis Boulevard to the east.
Whitestone contains the subsection of Malba, which is bounded to the north by the East River, to the east by the Whitestone Expressway, to the south by 14th Avenue, and to the west by 138th Street. Malba was cited in a New York Times article as one of the few "elite enclaves" of Queens.
Bayside is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of Queens. The neighborhood is east of Flushing and is part of Queens Community Board 11. CNN Money ranked Bayside as one of the most expensive housing markets nationally when analyzing comparable detached homes throughout the United States. Despite its large housing stock of free-standing homes, it nationally ranks high to very high in population density. These homes give the neighborhood a similar feel to other wealthy Queens neighborhoods such as Douglaston-Little Neck and Whitestone."

[@Livingmydreammm]

Thank you❤❤❤

[@cristisandu5808]

nice to see a different side of new york........great job ak

[@blacamit]

can you make more of bayside vlogs coz i love this quiet place, its beautiful and amazing.. ;-) thank you

[@streetsofasia8895]

That looks like a really nice place to retire after I get old! I love the big houses. Thank you for another successful video.

[@ActionKid]

You’re welcome 😉 Glad you enjoy.

[@focuseddrew8737]

I was born in Queens. I love this city, many great memories. I used to play softball in the parks close to these areas, but I live in Atlanta now. Thanks for showing parts of NYC that are not shown in the movies.

[@ActionKid]

Awesome 😎 Glad I could bring you back memories of Queens

[@claa3009]

Our family lived on Fort Totten, from 1969-1971, when it was still a semi-active military installation. At that time it was base housing for active duty military and their families. Attended nearby P.S. 209 and J.H.S. 194 schools. Very memorable time. Moved to Kansas, which was a bit strange after living in NYC.

[@jenlarge9036]

Stunning views of the bridge, loved the swish swash of the water, and those almost creepy weeping shrubs in suburbia. And also loved the random people in chairs, taking in the sun.

[@leesaunders7232]

I've been to New York and visited the Manhattan and Brooklyn busy touristy areas. Hard to believe this is in the same city.Really interesting. Thanks for the video. 👍😁

[@joelweiner4798]

That's what i like, Actionkid...videos where i've never walked before.. Thanks for this one...now, i have another walking project to complete. Keep up the great work.

[@shannongaddy5873]

Shannon Gaddy Thanks so much for showing your Queens videos for these past two days I’m really enjoying them! I used to live in Queens and I still miss how multi ethnic it is plus all the ethnic foods Thanks again! :)

[@GoodWalkers]

Great video as always 🙂 I think it's very quiet out there 🙂

[@xaphaniac]

I love these videos,, they will be so much help when I get to NY thank you, thank you, well, I can't thank you enough, but I just woke up and this is amazing! :))

[@Mathin3D]

100 years from now people will be watching your videos and saying "Wow, New York was also beautiful then..."

[@petralohr4069]

Wie schön...

[@jacquelinegangas7728]

hi actionkid !! ... beautiful place! Very nice video !!! ... 💝👌🌝

[@caroltrimble2738]

Love Whitestone, Bayside. Great neighborhoods

[@IngaHicks]

This is a very lovely neighborhood. Nice suburb of NYC

[@sgnmath1234]

It's not a suburb. It's as part of NYC as midtown Manhattan

[@crazeyjoe]

In the outer buroughs, as a general rule of thumb. The further you get away from Manhattan that you get, it's less densely populated and less commercial the area is. Also, keep in mind that you'd still be in an area that has minimum of 12k per square mile unless you are in Staten Island south of the SI expressway where it is really suburban like!

[@cristianrossi6172]

i live here. i always find it very peaceful theres little to no crime

[@goldiebear4050]

Another lovely day for a walk!

[@gilsonanderson5807]

Fantastic tour, thank you Action Kid !

[@jjffnunes]

Hello, how are you! your videos are great, it always reminds me of the tours I did there. Because you do not make a video on the NYC FERRY AS boats going through the three bridge bridges that connect to NY, I took this tour to Roosevelt Island and took the cable car on the island. Sensational.

[@ActionKid]

Thank you!

[@yaya3025]

What a beautiful neighborhood, and the most tranquil park I've ever seen. You dear sir are a bit of a daredevil going all the way out towards the end. But it must've been so magnificent, and Serene. I can watch this video as an virtual escape. Thank you so much.

[@ActionKid]

You’re welcome! Glad you liked the video.

[@Denis-jd6dd]

Very nice walk!)

[@michg8969]

Thanks ActionKid! From your videos I must say I love the Suburbs of NY. Manhattan is just noisy and grey and busy IMO.

[@nycstreets5295]

Beautiful neighborhood

[@Moyltorres]

Very nice video !

[@1DoorClosesSoAnother1CanOpen]

Thank you 🦋🎀

[@stankormy5717]

Thanks for sharing

[@Showtime-gc8pk]

Thanks for the video dude! This is my neighborhood and not what people believe when I say I'm from NY lol

[@ActionKid]

You’re welcome 😃

[@darsychane2588]

Love your videos, man!

[@baderhinal1958]

it is a new adventure journy again , well done .

[@Fizz826]

I miss this area

[@lipeba86]

Very nice areas. For us who live outside the US, it's hard to imagine NYC has neighborhoods as quiet and low density as these.

[@ActionKid]

NYC has a bit of everything!

[@chaoshund1768]

Thank You 🤗👍👍👍

[@Yankees1996ful]

I live on the Brinx side of the Throgs Neck Bridge and saw the rink from the Cross Island but not the whole park. That jetty was sweet!! Better views from the Queens side.

[@ActionKid]

I went to the Bronx side too. Great views there as well!

[@mikioni]

Beautiful 🙂🙂

[@jeahavvalentin980]

Cool video

[@mdtys]

you should do a pizzeria tour around nyc

[@LBVeil4215]

That's a great look at a part of NYC that most of us would never see.

[@ActionKid]

Yup, NYC is more than tall buildings, traffic and skyscrapers!

[@lofijourney160]

I really have something to ask. If you look at your videos, are you shooting at night or shooting in low light with gopro hero7? gopro hero7 If you are right, your low light image quality looks much better than other review videos. I am curious as to whether or not the editing process will have a separate effect. (Using a translator, the context may not be smooth, sorry.)

[@ActionKid]

Yes, sometimes I shoot in low light or night time. I don’t do any color editing in my software.

[@taniaburton5247]

New subscriber. Question, have you taken a walk in Harlem? That would be neat to see.

[@ActionKid]

Thanks for the subscription! I have several videos on Harlem on my channel.

[@petralohr4069]

Wow...

[@irenedelaire6868]

What bridge was that at 22.28?

[@michaelmorales1475]

Either The Whitestone Bridge or The Throgs Neck Bridge.

[@Residentombraider1000]

Beautiful :-)

[@robsonrodrigues805]

Belissimas imagens!

[@GetRekt-bw6pu]

Quiet little neighbourhood.

[@xmuta]

Yes, my hood. Nice.

[@leono7380]

New mic?

[@ActionKid]

No, same microphone but I edited the audio because it was capturing rustling sounds from somewhere.

[@leono7380]

@@ActionKid Aha, thanks for the video.

[@texman8150]

The most thankless job in NYC is sign maker, especially the guy who makes the "KEEP OFF JETTY" signs.

[@abreckenridge3001]

WOW who wouldve thought parts of NYC look like this lol

[@trmdude5738]

Nice day for an AK walk

[@Dr.Pepper001]

You sure are in good shape.

[@coolbro8102]

I live right next to the park in bay terrace

[@cristianrossi6172]

Oh my god I'm in this video on the jeddy

[@tyh12341]

All in the Family

[@Slim545]

These are the lucky people Of ny they ain’t gotta deal with daily violence and ptsd

[@cristianrossi6172]

i went on that jeddie today you should be careful of the rats there is alot of them

[@nadamoussa2495]

Is that sea

[@ActionKid]

The body of water? That would be the East River.

[@amir1577]

Very nice but why you just walking in nyc you could walk another city like los Angeles chicago or every city you want my friend

[@bigsipe7585]

Maybe he lives in N.Y.C?

[@ActionKid]

I live in NYC so it makes sense that most of my videos are from here.

[@KingKing-co3rm]

Hey what's up

[@PashaDefragzor]

24:08 I would like to find a "Mask" in there

[@jameslaumand3686]

Boring
