  • Come take a walk through the heart of downtown Binghamton New York. There are many historic old buildings that have great architectural value and beauty. Unexpectedly, I did run into a seemingly crazy person chasing me down the Riverwalk though. That excitement is towards the end of the video.

    Born in Binghamton myself in the early 80's and left 9 years ago. Watching this video reminds me of an awful past life that I don't want to be reminded of. I think I may have PTSD now.

    I'm from NYC and visit this town often by bus in order to make my way to a nearby campground in neighboring New Milford PA. Upon arrival from the outskirts towards downtown you get this very depressed feeling about the place and immediately see that it's seen some better days. But downtown is definitely beautiful with great architecture, all captured well on this video. The people are also very nice. The place just needs a hook, a draw. I mean all those beautiful waterways & hills surrounding it, etc. Here's hoping for better days ahead. Btw I love Michelangelo's On Court Street, their chicken parm, those garlic knots! Had to be said.

    i'm originally from Binghamton NY, my father was a police officer in Binghamton. Retired many years ago in 1976. He still lives there on the Northside of Binghamton as well as my brother and his family living on South Mountain near Ross Park area..A lot has changed since I visited Binghamton last..I'm in California now with my family. Haven't been back home in a few years because of the pandemic situations. Hopefully this year during the Christmas holidays. My grandparents settled in Binghamton many many years ago from the Czech Republic to work in the Endicott Johnson Shoe factories when they were running. Binghamton was a beautiful city when I was growing up, all the stores were open & the streets were packed with shoppers before the Oakdale Mall moved in, that's about when Binghamton downtown slowly disappeared and shops were closing down..But all and all thank you so much for the trip down memory lane..😊

    Thanks for the tour. I lived at 135 Front St when that house was still beautiful. I left Binghamton in 1971 and haven't visited in about 20 years now.

    Thank you so much for taking the time to making this video.. I used to live in Binghamton in the 1990s, you brought a lot of memories.. I'll always miss Broome County and its beautiful genuine people.

    My family lived in this area for generations. They shopped in Binghamton in the 40's - 60's. I married and left the area in 1962 and have not revisited the area since the early 2000's. I appreciate this tour and seeing there has been so much progress in taking down old bldg's, preserving some of the beautiful bldg's, and making places for the college students to go. Thanks for doing this!

    I lived at 38 Hawley St in the early 50's. My brother, friends and I played ball on the lawn at what was then the Broome County office building. Dad taught at Harpur and after he died my Mom worked at Security Mutual. I went to Columbus School. Many good memories of old Binghamton... thanks for jogging my memory!

    I was just there today, great video Frank. I’m sorry that happened to you. If you ever need someone to walk with you I’m always down to explore. I live in Endicott.

    Thanks for the video, was there way back in 1990 or so to visit a friend. We were nearer the Vestal area (in fact, I walked down to Vestal one day). Was up there when the Whalers were still their hockey team. I remember a hotel that had a club in it where I saw a couple of bands: Triphammer, Inside Out and another band whose drummer worked at the hotel. Saw and met a young Jay Mohr and a few other comedians at a nearby comedy club. Tried hard to find these areas to jog my memory as I remember Binghamton being really beautiful in it's early American architecture. I do remember Floyd Patterson, ex-champion boxer was signing autographs at Boscov's and seeing him walk out. I would love to go and retrace that river walk from the residential side to the downtown area again someday! Thanks again!!!

    Im in NYC. I was in Binghamton back in 2000. It didn't look as clean as it does now and it was run down almost everywhere. I'm happy to see that there has been a start to restore the small city.

  • @MickeyMouse-vn8vl

    Thanks for taking time and doing this. I left in 64, but lived on Gaylord Street 1 block from North High School.

    Thank you for this video, it brought back a lot of memories of when I attended the university there in the 1980's. I can't believe Boscov's department store is still there!
