    Enjoy this walking tour of the Brooklyn Neighborhoods of Midwood & Flatbush. I exit a Coney Island-Stillwell Avenue Bound Q train at the Avenue H subway station, continue on Avenue H to Brooklyn College, make my way through the campus to Flatbush Avenue, and continue on Flatbush Avenue to Church Avenue.
    This video has been reuploaded due to the original missing the last clip to Church Avenue.

    Thank you, great video! I have walked these very streets thousands of times, having grown up on Farragut near Nostrand, and then I worked at Brooklyn College for over 30 years, until 2 years ago. I also used to talk to the campus squirrels and they certainly are huge, and always eat very, very well! I'm still in NY and still at the Junction all the time, but it was nice to see this from the comfort of my couch at home. LOL

    Glad I clued in again, as the last six minutes have been restored, and was now able to see my "alma mater" -- Erasmus Hall H.S., and a bit of the Dutch Reformed Church. Many, many changes have taken place, which is to be expected. Thank you, action kid 105, for going to places that I knew, and have often wondered what they are like today. While it's true "you can't go home again" --- it still has bits and pieces of the past.

    I graduated from Brooklyn College in 1997 and I can’t get over how much the campus has changed! There used to be all these steps outside that we used to sit on… that led to any overpass where you could get to James Hall. Looks sooo different now!! But still a beautiful campus! Thank you for this video!!

    • @jazzauthor
      @jazzauthor 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes! I remember those steps that formed the overpass, and on top were benches and like mini-gardens...do you remember the original tennis courts from the 70s before all the construction began? And the apple trees?

    Memories !
    Although Flatbush has changed. I still recognize some points.
    I went to Midwood HS 1957-1961! I would travel from downtown (Fort Greene) to get to Midwood.
    I left Brooklyn after graduation from Midwood for college in Wash. DC. I never returned to live there!
    Missing those 50s!
    Great walking with you!

    Thank you ❤️ I am from Germany and a huge Barbra Streisand fan. Unfortunately I have not enough money to travel a lot but I‘ve always wondered how Flatbush looks like nowadays. She lived at Nostrand/Newkirk until she was 16 (1958), she went to Erasmus Hall H.S. and she loved the (Loews) King‘s Theater. So thank you for this little walk. That was fun ❤️

    Oh boy. this is my second attempt to show some appreciation (due to reupload) - I just wanna say thanks for all those "off-broadway" walks far off all those shiny and fancy Manhattan places - I really enjoy watching all those walks deep in the belly of Brooklyn or Qweens, thanks for all your work. Would love to see some footage of the recently renovated Highbrigde Area. Loved the Inwood-Vidz, too.

    I’m all the way down in Deep South texas and it’s been a life long dream to visit NY specifically Brooklyn.
    I don’t know if I’ll ever make it there, so watching this brought me to tears, quite literally.
    I always joke (but being serious) saying I’m a New Yorker in a Texans body. Something about Brooklyn calls to me and has for as long as I can remember.
    Thank you very much for this video.

    Wow, that area is much nicer than it was when I lived there in the '70's. I lived in the building right where Flatbush and Nostrand cross. You can see it at 21:21, I used to play at that pond that is on the college campus, It was my favorite place, it is nice to have seen it again. I left Brooklyn in 1979 at 13 years old, never to return. I'm glad this area got cleaned up at last. Thank you for this video.

    Thank you so much for this video. It was so nice to visit the neighbourhood with your video. I have never been to Flatbush, but my uncle who is a retired history professor tells me our Dutch Ancestors(Aris Janse Vanderbilt and Hillitje Hillegonde Remsen) settled there back in the 1600's. According to him they were born in Manhattan in 1653 but moved to and settled in Flatbush. My ancestors migrated north to Canada (I am from Montreal) but I would love to get more information on where they settled. I think some of them are buried at the the Dutch Reform Church at the corner of Flatbush and Church.

      @@jeanneewaseck6635 That is very true. Sometimes I get wrapped up in a dream life without thinking about the negatives. Once when I was young I abruptly moved to Denver because I thought it would be way more fun starting a new life and just getting away from my old town but I didn't realize how sad and lonely I would feel so I left all my things behind and flew back to CA. I have appreciated my home state so much more after that experience. There is NOWHERE like California.

    I grew up on East 21st St., in between Farragut & Glenwood Rds. during the early-late 70's, the 80's and into the early 90's. Yes, I grew up in one of those funky, eccentric Flatbush victorian houses. 😁🧐
    I was a: "Brooklyn College Kid" my parents were both English Professors, and I grew up taking various courses and participating in cultural activities/events on Brooklyn's campus from when I was about 8 years old (around the second grade) until I was 19 (graduated from high school, and had taken two "gap" years of college-level courses) so, Brooklyn College was literally my: "home away from home."
    I went to Edward R. Murrow for high school (even though Midwood was my locally zoned high school) because Murrow's Theater Program (which was what I was interested in) was well-known, and Murrow was better for the arts than Midwood is.
    I also took college-level courses through Kingsborough Community College while I was in high school through Murrow's College Now! program; even though I'd already been taking college-level courses at Brooklyn for YEARS, and so, CUNY was hard to get away from in my family. 🧐🤓
    After graduating from Murrow, I decided to take two "gap" years in between high school and college, and work, audition, travel and REALLY carefully decide where I wanted to attend college.
    Being from a family of CUNY educators, my parents INSISTED that college-level courses be a part of my gap years focus, (even if I didn't technically matriculate at the institution and I could attend CUNY for free) so I continued to take courses at Brooklyn, and I also started attending courses at Hunter College on the upper east side of Manhattan.
    I REALLY enjoyed attending Hunter, because it was in the city, and was (to me) WAY MORE interesting than Brooklyn was. I felt kind of the same way about NYU too (even though I wasn't interested in being an undergrad at NYU, but I had quite a few friends from high school who were going there) because I ❤️ the Greenwich Village area -- it's my favorite neighborhood of Manhattan.
    I left Brooklyn (and NYC) ENTIRELY in 1993, and moved up to Massachusetts to go to college, and then went to grad school in Connecticut, and didn't move back to NYC until 2002, and at that time I was living on Avenue A & E.12th St. in "Alphabet City" on the Lower East Side. Ironically, I was also doing post-grad work at NYU. 🤣
    In 2004, I accepted a teaching job in San Francisco, and moved out to Northern California, where I've lived ever since. HOWEVER, I will ALWAYS be, at ❤️ a Jewish Brooklyn boy from Flatbush. 😁

    On Monday, he ate through one apple, but he was still hungry. On Tuesday, he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry. On Wednesday, he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry. On Thursday, he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry. On Friday, he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry. On Saturday, he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice cream cone, one pickle, one slice of swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake and one slice of watermelon. That night he had a stomachache. The next day was Sunday again, the caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf and after that he felt much better. Now he wasn’t hungry anymore and he wasn’t a little caterpillar anymore he was a big fat caterpillar, he built a small house called a cocoon around himself, he stayed inside for more than two weeks, then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out and.... he was a beautiful butterfly!

    I’m like so many other people here in the fact that I grew up in flatbush (nostrand ave) but I moved away to another place. I moved to a small town in the Poconos in 2012, but a lot of the people here are also from NY so I feel a sense of community. Still I kinda miss brooklyn

    Love it but wish you had someone who could have talked about the how it changed. In the late 60's to early 70's I lived near Coney Island Ave and Church. Use to walk or take a bus (.15 cent) with my sister and mother and go to Flatbush Ave to shop at Macy's or Sears or to by a new pair of Converse sneakers at Tom McCann's shoe store. Use to also attend Cub Scout every week in the back of the Dutch Reformed Church (corner of Church and coin-operated cafeteria. Also known as a Automat. It was very cool.

      @@jazzauthor I graduated high school in 1966. The only fast food hamburger chains then were Wetsons and White Castle. There was a Wetsons on Flatbush & Empire, where last I remember, is a Wendy's. Wolfies was by the Junction (Flatbush & Nostrand), which is now a McDonalds. I also went to Wolfies to celebrate graduating Ditmas Jr. HS.

      More than 40 years ago, I went to BC and walked from my apartment on E. 12 between J & I, that way just about every day. And before that, until I was 7, we lived on Nostrand between Farragut and Glenwood. By the time I was at BC, my mom and all my grandparents lived on Albemarle between McDonald & E.2, so I walked that way too, from BC to where my relatives were. This was such a treat. Thank you!
