Great video. Thanks for this. Say at 4:15 or so is that Mollo's health foods? If so, that's the only photo of it I've ever seen. My mother was into health foods and she'd shop there in the sixties. I think Mollo's was around through the eighties at least.

Memories ❤❤❤I grew up in the Fordham rd section ❤❤ thank you

I miss those days

Gorman's hot dogs with pumped orangeade, you got it

“I’m Only Asking” are you “The Way to my Heart” if you are - what do say “When The Boys Talk About The Girls” Valerie Carr - is Asking All These Questions too

I live in the Bronx. 😎👍

Any bought their shoes at Fred Michael in 3rd ave in the bronx

I have very fond memories of both the RKO fordham movie theater as well as the valentine theater the latter is where me and my father saw the 80s horror flick the Grimm reaper with Mia farrows real life sister Tisha who appeared in that film and of course there is the lows paradise movie theater where we saw the movie flash dance there used to be an X rated movie theater there that was always playing the devil in miss Jones of course I was way to young to see it such awsome memories of the bronx in the 80s. I just wish that this awsome video was a whole lot longer thank you so much for sharing I hope there will be a much much longer version if possible stay safe out there .

Memories for me I use to live in Watson st in the Bronx great memories 😢1987 wow

It would be great to hear this with better quality.

Gyro king really been on fordham since the 70s??? That's wild

That Gyro King in Walton / Fordham has been there forever!!! Great pizza!!

If i am right Alexandrder use to be Fordam Rd.I remember in the 50s going for Easter oufit with my mother and sister. We live in Mount Vernon NY!

I used to live on Ryer Ave when I was a little kid during the early to mid 80s. It was near the Grand Concourse and Fordham Road. Me and my family used to go to the movies a lot on Fordham as well as shopping at Alexander's, Woolworths and Sears. I have great nostalgia for those days. I haven't been around there in a couple of years and I rarely go around there anymore. Pretty much everything I used to love around there went away ages ago.

So nostalgic. Can’t believe how fordham has changed but remained to same so much. Gyro king has been same location for dam near 50 years. Army Navy store as well. Wow.

my God I used to work in that street 1976 I worked in RKO THEATER please show videos where I was born Manhattan Delancey Housings

Love your video it's like going back in time.

I would give anything to live in the late 70s and the entire 80s all over again

Thank you for sharing 🙂 I remember all of these places. Nice memories.

695 east 163 st Bronx New York forest projects

no talkeeeee

Fordham Road had great stores back in the 70s and places to eat. Now it’s just a shit house

I lived in pelham Pkwy when I was younger and I'm familiar with your old building by the hospital. Seeing old footage from the 90s is wild. I don't care what anyone says the people there now suck it's full of dope dealer's that's not hyperbole either.

To me the Bronx was a terrible Place. Dirty, noisy, and always had high crime. The buses and trains were filthy. Junk stores, no quality at all. the schools worthless. I was born in the Bronx and left in 1970, never to look back. Amazing how anyone has good memories. I went to Evander Childs HS .. it was a hell hole. I graduated with a 98% average.... yet I got to the University of Georgia in 1970 and was far behind the students from every other state. By uncle was mugged and killed in 1962 on Fordham Road. A cousin was mugged coming fom Roosevelt HS, and never recovered 100%. Our house on Baychester avenue in 1964, was robbed 5 times, we had to live with bars on our windows. Everyone had several locks on their doors! and steel bars that went from the door and went into a slot in the floor, to prevent someone from kicking in the door.. Look close at all the photo's, you can see the trash in the streets! Good memories, I say not.. I would never have raised a family in the Bronx.

We lived on Claflin Ave in back of the armory and kept the apt until 1985 rent control had us at 55 dollars a month. Even when we moved to jersey my nanny kept the place until her death in 1985. My father hated the Bronx and I loved it which set up a lifelong conflict taranctula knows

That building is still there where that Alexander’s was.

The R 62 Cars on the #4 Train were about three years old at that time at 0:16

Did u see the cops walking the beat..... And people passes by them close and they didnt shoot or fear for there lives....i remember we the community knew the local cops and talked with them like human to human....

Wow that Models is still there on Fordham Road. Woolworth is long gone. Wow good memories.

The panoramic shot starting at the 24 second mark is my old neighborhood! Such memories! The OTB where I saw a man get stabbed, the tall building on the left where I lost my virginity. The Chinese restaurant where I had my first job delivering food. The newsstand and deli to the right. I knew this scene well. The camera shot was taken out a window of the train station. We loved to look out those very windows and watch as people went about their business.

we skitched a bus up fordham road to alexanders then walk to model davigas .

I was born in 1994 , this is cool

Damb gyro king been there since the 70s 😭 that’s OD

What Dept store replaced Alexander's?

How can anyone give a thumbs down to this. My oh my 🙁

Thank you!! Great memories!!!

Sorry, it’s not me. 🙂

If you're the Stephen S who lived in Highbridge Projects and went to Taft... let me know

Video looks like shit

OMG... I just seen the optical clinic where I used to get my vision checked in the early 90’s as a 12 year old boy on Fordham and the concourse. I continued going there then in the mids 2000’s they made the clinic was half its side and finally in 2010 I believe they was gone. What’s crazy that’s where I got my first set of contact lenses in 1998, I’ll never forget!!. Now Fordham Rd is no longer small owned business, its all big corporate America retail stores expect a few like Jewelers, Pharmacy’s, 99 cent stores and the few pizza places. Forgot to mention does anyone remember buying badly recorded bootleg movies on vcr tape(vhs) from the guys with there bed sheets ready to run from police if the pull up, the card games where they hustle you out your money, and many more memories... wow flashbacks.....

O my god good o memories 🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲🥲 nothing like the good o times holding back my tears 😭best times ever 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰I’m from Longfellow Ave and Freeman southern boulevard boy I remember the salsa 💃🏻 clubs 😬👌and orchard beach 🏖 best time ever we had some fun those days 😭😭😭😭😭

My old neighborhood. I lived in Fordham Hill oval and graduated from Theodore Roosevelt High. My aunt lived on Walton in that very apartment complex. I’m old enough to remember when there was a movie theater right across Fordham Rd from Gyro King. I remember the old Dunkin’ Donuts on the Concourse across from Alexanders. And of course the ubiquitous number 4 elevated. Moved away 30 years ago, but I admit sometimes I miss the noisey hustling and bustling.

WOW!!!! BOY Do I MISS THOSE DAYS!!!!

Fordham and University, went to 206B, Angelo Patri and Walton high

When people used to know a guy ..

East tremont and grand concourse !

Bonjour. Je pense qu'il y a une erreur sur le titre de cette pièce qui n'est pas grand march.

Not too many architectural highlights

Nice to see this video of how Fordham and Walton looked during that time! I love pictures/footages taken in the past! & it was so great to get a glimpse of the church I attend, Estrella de Jacob right on 184 & Walton Ave! ALL ARE WELCOME♥️ I right away recognized the view of Fordham and Walton from the train station. And Fordham back then was full of people and busy just as today. I’d like to wonder how life was at that time. Yes Gyro King is still there, Modell’s, Kids World, and the bakery on Jerome and Fordham near PS 33.

Flame Burger on Fordham had the best burgers and a pickle bucket!!!
