Looking for bricked up windows because of the window tax. I gave you a thumbs down because hour friend was not wearing a mask. .
With Halloween 🎃 not far off The Sugar Houses that Were Runned by the British during the Revolutionary War in Manhattan and being Haunted 👻 Has to be my Favorite because I love ghost Stories 👻 I am a fan from Minnesota
You wouldn’t go to the spots I’ve been in the city …. Under the city. ..
Thanks for having me on! It was a pleasure collaborating you, man! Also love the editing on this video. 🙌
Thanks Ariel, i'll never look at Lower Manhattan the same way again.

What an adventure! Ariel is a wealth of information. Cannon’s Walk was an amazing find!
The legend!! Thanks for swinging by Kenneth.
My favorite part about New York is that there’s always something to discover. I’ve been there twice and it still blows me away.
LeeJESSON924
Lived here my whole life, and there's still always something new to discover.
@urbanist is one of my favorite youtubers, a wealth of knowledge and history!
Dude NYC is such a vibe. Heading out there in a few weeks, would love to meet up brother!
I'm a Native New Yorker and I consider myself pretty tuned into the history of NYC and I love showing friends around the City. I didn't know about 2 of these places. Another one , my knowledge was - iffy - at best. Very interesting video. Thanks for posting.
Great collaboration! Please do a few more with Ariel.
Great video. One note, the Guastavino tiles are not Italian but were brought to NY by the Spaniard Rafael Guastavino, who got a patent for this Catalan-styled vault construction and built it all over NY.
Thanks for the info!
That´s right! Guastavino was Spanish from Valencia and he built some 250 buildings in NYC and more than one thousand in the rest of the country. His specialty was the flame retardant tiles he used to cover domes and ceilings. Great architect, indeed.
great collab. the urbanist’s vids are always very informative.
Very Interesting. The Buildings showing damage of an explosion centuries old and very few know that, yet venture past that area often is amazing! That area should be as recognized from history as September 11th.
Great collaboration and hidden gems for tourists and native New Yorker's alike. My hidden gem is in upper Manhattan inside Inwood Hill Park by 215th... Shorakkopoch Rock, a site where Peter Minuit bought the island of Manhatta from the Native Indians.. Keep up your fine work.

Gosh NY is so fascinating . 🗽Thanks for this .
Fantastic video
Cannon’s Walk is a really cool looking hidden spot
It was on my list for a while, finally popped in.
Amazed by the timing!! I am reading NEW YORK by Edward Rutherfurd, and it tells the story of NYC from 1664 up to 2001. I am enjoying so much your video today, as I can see the places that are reflected in the book. Thanks a lot, you guys, that is really rewarding! Well done. Ariel, you have a new subscriber from Spain. Congrats!
Amazing!
My favorite collaboration on your channel so far. You two are an amazing pair here on TH-cam, your two channels really complement each other. I really hope to see more of this in the future.
This was so incredibly fascinating especially having walked by these locations every single day.
I love the little pictures on the q train when u going towards Manhattan! This is amazing
This was great to watch!
Ariel is the best storyteller
I love NYC for so many reasons but one of the main ones are it's hidden Gems. I did knew about the Wall Street Bombings and I think it's sad that it's been forgotten. Great video like always Jon
Thanks
Both of you did a great job showing us the hidden history of Lower Manhattan in NYC. Your friend knows his stuff!
I enjoy your tour of historical parts of NYC. You should do more of these videos.
They placement of the Obelisks also corresponds with the statue of liberty. All 3 Obelisk and the statue make a version of the little dipper consolation. Saw it on history channel.
Also you should do a video on the Needle of Cleopatra in Central Park
Bonsoir Jon.....merci pour cette vidéo super intéressante.....❤
Great collab! Another great video! Thanks Jon !
Thanks
We want ARIEL in more videos!!!!!
Great Tour. Appreciate the hidden spots/information.
Informative! Good job John!
AWESOME vlog!! I been visiting all the places you hit for years. Need to hit Fraunces Tavern real soon. I was wondering if they were open. Love that place.
Cannon’s walk and Seaport museum awesome!!,You and Ariel are the best youtubers of New York City!!
keep up the good work!!
JamesandKarla are also great youtubers.. actionkid, as well.
Very interesting video. Next time we visit you need to take us to these places :-)
Deal!
This was so good. I am not sure of my obsession with Old New York but I am somehow drawn to it and sure do appreciate your knowledge about it.
John, I think there is no better time to do this than now in NYC, lots of space due to covid
Some new places for me, me, a lifelong New Yorker! Mahvelous!
Fascinating stuff!! Thank you!!
Excellent video with Ariel, Jon. Lots of important historical information. Thank you and Ariel for presenting and sharing.
Thanks, Jon. Great historical video!
Love the interesting visits
Love this! Can’t wait to check these spots out next time I’m out there!
This was great. It's nice to see all these unique places in Manhattan. Cheers!
I always love your videos Jon! I find a lot of them interesting....I hope to return to NYC sometimes soon (I live relatively close on Canada's East coast) and will use your videos as a guide. Haven't been to NC since 2005, so I'm sure a lot has changed.
The Wall St. bombing was quickly cleaned up as to avoid a bank panic. The bomb left a crater in the street and was filled in by the end of the day.
Chambers St. has three separate stations. The 1 2 3, the A C, and the J Z. Which one? I assume the J Z since it's near a cluster of NYPD facilities...
Believe it's JZ.
That was fun and interesting! : )
Going to NYC in March for the first time, almost all my plans and reservations are thanks to Here Be Barr. THANKS!
Awesome.
Amazing. We live in New York and never Ben to these places lol thanks for sharing
Wow this footage is amazing all the different things that you would never think in such a very big city as of New York oh my gosh thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Love, l-o-v-e, lo-o-v-v-e-e this channel. Im native Angeleno who is in love with NY. Really enjoyed visiting Washington mews, the Berlin wall, and Irish memorial, thank you Barrio for sharing with the world. Can't wait for my next trip so I can visit these hidden spots. ALSO love Brookly, perhaps a video on BKs hidden gems? Please continue to make content, it helps the world stay connected when travel has been placed on hold.

I like to start my day watching a channel before the day gets busy. This is really great to have Ariel co-host. I know he has been in Ireland. At some point the two of you should do another video together. You both work well together and can pick up subscribers and likes.
I actually support both of your channels.
Interesting sights and stories.
I will check out Stone St.
Ariels amazing
As you walked into Cannon's Walk, I had to pause the video because my main thought was "I recognize that area!" I didn't recognize Cannon's Walk itself, since I didn't realize that area existed. Rather, I recognized the building you walked through to get to it. A few years ago, some friends and I sat on those colorful benches enjoying our ice cream from Big Gay Ice Cream.
You guys were near my work. I’ve taken a few photos of Stone Street. Yet I did not know about some of the hidden gems. Now I want to see them. Great job! 👏👏👏
Our pleasure!
Chambers street is a sad station 😁 I wouldn’t change a thing ❤️
Stone Street is fabulous 🥰
it's fabulous when it's not too crowded.
Love your videos and I miss NYC! 😭
Loved this collaboration.
I really am hoping America will be open for travel in January! Really need my trip to NYC☺️
New York as of now is open. Please check the New York Government website for travel advice. If you are coming from a country with restrictions please check before coming. We also placed travel restrictions on neighboring states so it's important to visit online or phone in!
Ryan Flores don’t you worry, I keep checking! I’m in the UK and unfortunatly right now the states is off limits completely! Fingers crossed for next year👏🏼
@@edennpt I hope so too good luck and safe travels
Ryan Flores thanks Ryan!🤙🏼
Jon, this was one of the best videos!
I really enjoyed that one. Here's an interesting coincidence - Porterhouse is an Irish brand that got started here about 30 years ago. The brewery is in a random industrial estate on the outskirts of dublin, exactly 250m from where I watched this vid. Crazy!!! So happy to see more vids from you actually back out and about in the city :)
Had to be an easy transition for the outdoor dining on Stone St. Even in normal times there was a lot of it
Exactly
Oh, I'll have to do Cannon's Walk soon. I wished you also covered Little Syria, only three buildings left.
Just so kewl. 🧡
Wonderful video like always buddy.
I'm also subscribed to his channel too
Great 👍
Wow ! Fantastic tour Folks! Thank you! :D
I can’t snap or whistle but I love history! One of my minors was History & I live in Nashville which is Heaven for a history buff!
Great one, a fantastic job indeed
Jon dude the soundeffects eddited in there was amazing experience!
I remember seeing the Worth monument as for years I ran c Christmas store and the main building for the Christmas ornament manufacturers show rooms was at 1107 Broadway right accross from the Worth monument.
That was great! Ariel gained a subscriber!
I'm glad you enjoyed the secrets! thanks for subscribing!
I have been to Massachusetts and they have some history tours, and I know NyC has the bus tours. Can you give us some info on tours in NYC you would recommend that has history we can view some spots of?
Great vlog, I love everything you do when you show us the City.
Just a little comment about Guastavino. Mr. Rafael Guastavino was not Italian but Spanish. He is known as the architect of New York.
Never stop
This is all by my school!! Def will visit all these spots
Pretty cool! Knew some and learn some even though I worked at S&P building (55Water Street), World Financial , World Trade, and few across the water at Exchange. In NYC every stone has a history :)
Jon, one of your most interesting videos ! Walt in Miami
Thanks Jon
I would love an outdoor drinking and dining guide.
My wife and I would've been in NYC this whole week, but due to current circumstances we had to cancel our trip (we canceled it about 1 1/2 month ago) ... :-( Hopefully next year we will be there!
Still hoping UK and USA start flying across Atlantic very soon.
The first one had me in aw already. I never knew that existed!
Very nice!
Thank you!
Love your videos, been using them to plan a trip to NYC happening in a few weeks.
Being Irish I was intrigued as to why there's an obelisk dedicated to Robert Emmet in Manhattan, so I done some reading. It's not actually dedicated to Robert Emmet, it's to his older brother Thomas Emmet, who went to America and became a lawyer after Robert died in the failed Irish rebellion of 1803.
Well done. I , at least, knew 50% of the spots. Hope all is well. Cheers from UWS.
I’m not surprised! Stay well Seth .
Loved it!!!
John go to Amster Yard. It is an amazing hidden gem located in Turtle Bay.
Never heard of it! Thanks.
@@HereBeBarr you will love it!
E 49th st.
@@HereBeBarr right inside a vestibule by a school to learn conversational Spanish...great outdoor courtyard...i take tourists there all the time.
Love you bro
You can draw a straight line from any point A to any Point B, not out of the ordinary.
Johnny Culver that wasn’t the extraordinary thing. He said there was another obelisk _exactly_ in the middle of point A and point B.
Oh please!
It is Thomas Emmet's memorial in St. Paul's Chapel. He was brother to Robert Emmet. Thomas came to America and was a lawyer. Robert Emmet was hung by the British in Ireland in 1803.
Love you New York city bro new York city is the my all time favourite city in the world bro love you bro
Hi John. The Edge is opening in 2 days!! :)
Cool
I use to have a locker in the Port Authority
Exploring with Barr!
Thanks bro.
Jon, I have a suggestion for you: why don’t you live city tour? You have great knowledge about the city and I think viewers will like it. I live in NJ. If you want, I may be able to help you shooting the videos.
Ahh not my thing. Tons of great guides on TH-cam though (Sarah Funk, etc).
Here Be Barr with all due respect, I think you will a better job than others. I have seen their videos.
Definitely vist Lombardi's it may look like another pizza slice shop in NYC. But its actually the oldest pizzeria in The Americas. Go there and you can get a literal "slice of history"
Guastavino was from Valencia, Spain.
Hey Jon great video but can you do one on how to avoid the 14 day quarantine? JK lol maybe 😂
In Belgium we call these Belgian blocks childheads ( kinderkopjes) 😁
I only learned that name from Ariel, i just assumed cobblestone.
New York City is the most important commercial center in America BECAUSE there aren't many streets predating 1835. New York isn't afraid to make room for the new. It doesn't want to be an open air museum.
Cannon’s Walk reminds me of Diagonal Alley in Harry Potter!
