​@@chandlerbingbongLondon is 1001 times better

[@adebrrr]

New york and london are quite similar, but london is better in my opinion. New york has rats, overpiled garbage and agressive homeless people. Not to mention alot of people try to scam u there.

[@TidyRC]

Gotta b London. Once upon a time I really wanted to go to the US. not really fussed now it doesn’t seem the same as it was. However I mega love friends so would b fantastic to go to New York.

​@archie-xz3gr I visited NYC 25 years ago, so boring, we went to Central Park to have a carriage ride, the groom said: this is the biggest city park in the world. "American is the world the most....EVERYTHINGS" . I am living in London, I love London.

[@michaelwhite2393]

Just had a look on Google Tim and found this. Underneath the streets of Manhattan, there are more than 100 miles of service pipes bringing steam to about 1,800 buildings. Steam may seem like a primitive source of energy (think of steamboats and steam engines- we don't see those anymore). But when New York's first power plant opened in 1882, steam from clean water greatly reduced the amount of soot created by individual coal-burning furnaces which were the primary source of heat at the time.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

thanks for that :-)

[@exxsprout]

Most of NY apartments still has their radiators even if they're not used.

[@davidbandler]

Municipally & utility provided steam heating is very common in most urban American cities; it is a byproduct of the generation of electricity (an early green-tech to recapture the lost heat for steam).

[@99999myk]

When I was living in NYC, some hapless soul fell through a loose manhole and was boiled alive.

[@lordbacon4972]

Why waste steam? If it's produced by the power plant as a by-product of producing electricity, circulating it to buildings is a very practical usage.

[@steve-marsh]

I think you should be commended for the behind the scenes work that would have gone into filming this. In NYC that's not always easy. Superb job well done!

My great uncle went through Ellis Island. He was from Italy. He planned to send for my grandmother after living in New York for a year, but he died in the first winter he was there. Instead, my grandmother moved from Italy to the UK and consequently here I am (born in the UK). Crazy to think that had he survived, I could have been American.

I work across the walkway from Rockefeller Center. One of my coworkers used to work for the company that manages Rockefeller Center. One of his responsibilities was to get into a helicopter and scout the forests for the Christmas tree. Two trees actually, a backup tree also has to be selected in case something happens to the primary tree.

[@RedNightDragon1]

In 1982, I went to NYC with my family. I was obsessed with trees and wanted to locate a sweetgum in Central Park. I couldn't find one. Eighteen years later, I took my wife to NY from Boston (where I'm from) via Amtrack, and as we're strolling through CP, I see the tree I had been looking for. It was a happy personal moment. I live in London now and I see sweetgum trees everywhere, LOL.

[@nonnythunderbox]

[@aclem8246]

I lived in Manhattan back in the 80's. Thanks for doing this walk about. The city really has improved I must say.

[@0tispunkm3y3r]

The steamy vents.... its from the power station. They send steam down under the streets and it is used to heat/cool buildings. It's a district heating system that has been working since the 1880s and is one of the largest (naturally) if not THE largest such system in the world. The Art Deco details on display at the Empire State are absolutely sublime. Not sure it's still a thing, but a cheap way to see the Statue is to get the Staten Island ferry (with all the commuters) and simply go round the turnstiles and get back on to come back. You'll go past it and get a good view. And I am sure it was free. At least it was when I did it.

[@conniecrawford5231]

I was a NYC Tour Director for over 30 years from the 1970s until the 2000s-every time you talk about “great views”, my mind instantly remembers the fantastic World Trade Center/and how those magnificent buildings were attacked and the nearly 3000 innocent people who were murdered ( the death certificates for the WTC victims listed the cause of death was murder”). We will not forget-we MUST not forget !

[@conniecrawford5231]

@@nygelmiller5293 My life is very nice”! I have visited over 113 different countries over a 50 year career in tourism. I don’t know if you were being snarky but I lost friends who were murdered during 9/11 and I ersonally took hundreds of people to the top of the WTC in the years prior to the attack! NO OnE should ever forget, even those of you who were not directly involved . I lived in Honolulu while attending graduate school at the U. Of Hawaii and I can assure you that most of my friends never “forgot” the attack on Pearl Harbor even though it happened before they were born. I have Japanese friends and have visited Japan and had a wonderful time-I do not blame any loving Japanese but I also have a history degree and will never forgot what happened at Pearl Harbor. We MAuST never forgot those thousands of innocent heroes who were MURDERED just because the years have passed!

Fantastic vlog, thank you so much Tim. It feels like we've now been to NY ! Hoping to go one day. You covered literally everything we've been talking about doing and seeing, and you chat as tho your audience were travelling with you, it's so enjoyable. We wanted to experience Times Square at 6.30am too 😄 Thank you for ALL your vlogs, you would make a great travel companion for anybody.

Am I the only one who’s sad that the Empire State Building has been turned into a Disney like attraction? I love the history of it. That being said, this is the absolute best video I’ve ever seen of the view from The Empire State Building, well done Sir. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼. My MIL came back from Germany after WW2, her husband served during the occupation. She said she cried seeing the Statue of Liberty she was so happy to be home. We have a photo of her standing in front of the ship that brought her back. Thanks for a wonderful tour of NYC Tim.

[@philipjamesparsons]

I work as flight crew and go there regularly. There is a lot to see and do. There is free stuff but generally very expensive. Food is ridiculous. My hotel is (fortunately) paid for. What kills it for me is how busy it is. Avoid Xmas, like the plague and other holiday times. I went during COVID and it was earily quiet. Great video Tim, but I do prefer Chicago. Also tons to see, but without the hordes.......

[@philipjamesparsons]

......but for those who do go; my suggestion. Take Roosevelt Island aerial tramway (cable car) to Roosevelt Island, giving you unique street and river views. Walk around the tranquil island (30 minutes) giving you amazing city views. Take the water taxi ($5) to Battery Park. Head to the free Staten Island Ferry taking you past the Statue of Liberty to New Jersey. Board the water taxi back to Mid Town. Plenty to see at each stop. It is a round trip. Staggering views on the water and dirt cheap.

[@balthefemroe]

​@@philipjamesparsonsI also went on the free Staten Island Ferry a few years ago and would absolutely recommend this.

I celebrated my 10th birthday in New York with my Family. One of the best memories of my entire life is birthday present shopping in FAO Schwartz as a ten year old... I was there for thr Christmas Lights switch on too. Memories I'll never forget. Some people suffer "New York Syndrome" where it doesn't live up to expectations and they suffer genuine stress from being underwhelmed. For me, it was every bit of the fairytale. I remember it like a film. Amazing.

Would love to go back but regrettably long haul is so difficult for us now.

Mariah Carey is playing in Madison Square Garden this Christmas Season.

[@stephenfestus9268]

The reason for the steam vents is that the city provides heat to many of the buildings (at a cost), and that eliminates the need for each building to have its own heating plant. This method of heating frees the buildings from having the need to have routine fuel deliveries and keeps the power plant in an industrial area where it would not affect the local air quality. (All of the cars in NYC do enough of that) BTW. Excellent videos Tim. Also, my grandfather landed at Ellis Island from Ukraine at the turn of the century. "Slava Ukraini!"

I really enjoy Tim's "travelogues." I imagine that since he's from the UK, he is refreshingly polite, as he thanks just about everyone who serves him, from, in this video, the hot chocolate vender to the pizza vender. He does this in all his videos. This, I suppose, is all well and good. But what is NOT well and good, is I've never seen anyone, from store vendors to hotel clerks to hotel employees, THANK TIM for his business. Don't those people know that without PAYING CUSTOMERS, like Tim, those people wouldn't have their jobs? I would not bet on it. Still, I like to see Tim instill some politeness and gratitude on these people by saying something like, "Oh, (referring to the person's name on the name plate), you forgot to thank me." The person may apologize and profusely thank Tim. But if the employee looks puzzled, Tim should exlain that since he is a customer the employee should appreciate his business and thank him for it. If the employee still looks puzzled, he could remind the employee that without paying customers like him, the employee will soon be out of a job. The employee may see it his way, and thank Tim not only for his business, but for the new found lesson Tim taught him. Should the employee, however, remain obtuse, or even refuse to thank Tim, I suggest Tim ask for the employee's manager. The manager will tell Tim that he will address the employee, and then profusely apilogize and thank Tim for his business and for bringing up his concern. And who knows, the manager may offer a complimentary something, or even comp his meal or room.😀👍 Let's make this world a more civil and polite one. Tim, and anyone else who profusely thank ungrateful service or product providers could greatly help when they stop doing this and, instead, demand to be thanked for the business they provide. Thanks for reading.

The thing to know about grits is that you need to add lots of salt and butter. Cheese is also a good add-in. It has no flavor on its own. Most places don’t add those things to it bc everyone prefers it differently. Don’t listen to anyone who suggests putting sugar in it.

I’ve been lucky enough to visit New York many times, and lived in London for over a decade. I’d take New York in a heartbeat. However, to fully get the complete NYC experience, I would suggest the following. Firstly, stay in another borough than Manhattan. Brooklyn, Bronx, Queens and even Staten Island are all easy to access all the touristy bits in Manhattan, plus you get to experience all the unique qualities each borough has to give. Along with experiencing how the locals live/eat/travel. Secondly, always take the subway and walk everywhere. I learnt after my first trip, that you miss out on so much when on guided tours and buses. Walking is vital. There’s so much to see when just strolling around. Plus, you’ll recognise so much from film/tv that you might of missed otherwise. Thirdly, to get the most out of your time in the huge city. Really plan your days out before you go. There are plenty of sights that are situated near each other. Do them all in one day, then plan to visit another area the next. Fourthly avoid tourist traps. Especially food related. For example juniors cheesecakes. They’re nice but there’s plenty of better places, that will be cheaper and better. Same with the likes of Katz deli. Very nice, but it’s so expensive, and you’re herded in and out like cattle. There are plenty of quality delis around the city. Sadly my favourite Eisenburgs (near the flat iron building) has been closed since Covid. But they did the best Reuben’s in NYC for me. Just do a bit of research. Lastly, more a personal one. If you’ve never driven in the US before, don’t start in NYC. We hired a car for our honeymoon to take us from NYC to Vegas, and picked the car up from Battery park Manhattan. I drove it back to our digs in Brooklyn. But the signage in NYC is impossible. I kept missing the turnoff, and we ended up going backwards and forwards over the Brooklyn Bridge 3 times! Driving to Coney Island wasn’t so bad though, so once you’re used to the signs/roads it’s fine. It was the most stressful hour of my life getting from Manhattan to Brooklyn though!

This video made me sad lol. I have been to NYC a few times in my life. I went with my mom and dad and my son. We always stay at the Doubletree that sits right by the new years ball that drops abd the red stadium seats are right there too. Last time I was there it was right at Christmas so all of this was very familiar. Last time I was there with my dad but he passed away in 2023. I miss him but this brought many great memories to my mind.

Great vlog Tim. I was wondering if you ever felt threatened or worried when you were wandering around anywhere. Take care 🤗

[@WalkWithMeTim]

Fantastic tour!! Always love watching your videos - whether you’re travelling to a 1star hotel or 5star hotel! I always find them really interesting. As someone who hasn’t managed to travel as much as I’ve wanted to - your videos give me the insight and fix I need. Thank you 😊

New York doesn’t look all that great to me always just seemed so similar to London never really appealed to me when you take into account the other places you could visit for the money. This video really confirmed that for me, Thanks Tim love your videos btw!

I visited NY 25 years ago. I agree with you. Nothing memorised me.

[@WalkWithMeTim]

I totally agree! I thought the same .. but its much much different

[@b8nnytez]

I always wanted to go, but a friend who went recently, and Tim's vid has convinced me otherwise. Prices were her main complaint, and yeah, $12 for a small hot chocolate, nah it's OK, New York can stay on the TV screen! 😂

Reminds me of my city of Manchester obviously a large scale

[@davidbandler]

Most of us Americans would tell you the same thing; it's just a bigger, dirtier, higher-crime city in the States and it doesn't really have anything that unique. Everything NY has is found everywhere else, and most other places in the US have it better (and WAY cheaper). Only New Yorkers think that NY is the center of the world.

I thought I had seen all your videos but missed this one. I have been to NY countless times. This takes me right there. An awesome city.
