- Exploring Camp LaGuardia in New York was a homeless facility until the mid 2000's when it was closed down and abandoned. The documentary was reported by Richard Kotuk in the 1970's. You can watch it on TH-cam.

God, bless those poor souls and if they've passed, may they rest in peace.

@@t.y.5565 You know who took everything from them!
That poor man at the end broke my heart. The sadness and pain in his eyes 😭
Well, he drank a lot as he said and probably beat his wife and then she left and after that he suddenly missed her...
“I know I’ll never see them again” killed me
I'm sure he was a menace to his family.
Perhaps his family was a menace to HIM? @@Atayfordays
@@Atayfordays Does that mean he should suffer forever? Even if he doesn't get to see his family again, why can't he be happy?
I appreciate everything i have and have been very lucky. Thanks for sharing this video.
Thanks for bringing light into this, Chris.
It is a sad story, it's an interesting bando, good content, good to see jay. I will check out his video as well. Thanks for taking us along.
Poor houses were actually a decent idea, as long as they were completely voluntary.
They didn't close the asylums, they just moved them outdoors.
EXCELLENT POINT!! Not only did they move them outside, they gave them all the freedoms and rights of the ordinary American citizens. The only problem with that is they don’t have to part take in treatment. It’s crazy and we wonder why we have the problems we have today. And then Joe dumps the illegals on the existing situation. Insane! TOTALLY INSANE!
Yes, and also made some of them VERY political on both sides of the Overton window.
@@stevencharron3866 Vaguely understand what you are saying. In today speak, that window is going to shift about 180 degrees.
Merry Christmas! Thanks for all your efforts. Be safe my friend
Thank you for yet another great video, I've been watching your content since I wanna say 2016 2017 and haven't been bored of you yet.
"wanna"? Deep South rural USA lingo
@michaelciccone2194 lol
The greatest country in the world and we don’t care for our homeless, elderly and sick! All the institutions that were built years ago are empty or destroyed! It’s a shameful state of affairs 🥺
Thank you Chris for you’re exceptional stories🙏🏻💙🙏🏻
The problem is that these government elites are supposed to be serving the people, but they are not there serving them selves and don't care about us
@@housemousell i was going to say that to something really wrong with this country
INSATIABLE GREED! That an illegal African immigrant is worth FIVE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS is OBSCENE!!!!
But we take on the burden of millions of illegals. Unbelievable
A heartbreaking story. So shameful that our society pushes aside and marginalizes so many ill and needy. Thanks for reminding us of the need we have to help others. Great presentation, Chris. Thanks to you and Jay
Take the bull by the horns! I’m looking forward to seeing what success you achieve. Complaining about others trying to help back then surely means you’re an expert.
Plus we are tired of thieves !
@@sammyday3341Scotty wont do s-it. He just virtue signalling to show everybody around he a good boi 😂
Donate to planned parenthood.
Funding goes to others
Truly eye opening. Thank you for this amazing presentation.
It’s interesting how the paint peels, it wasn’t shut down that long ago really.
Sad indeed , but a place for people to go at the time !!!
I'm just looking for a place to camp on my journey home
Thank you for sharing the sad story
Yet another great video. Especially with the before and after video clips and explanations. Thank you 👍
That was very well made guys! RIP to those poor souls.
Your adventures are EXACTLY my cup of tea. Wish I had the time/resources to do the same. For now, I will wait for the next video. Nice work, as always.
I needed to see a video like this. Thanks, mate.
You're welcome!
As usual, it is an exceptionally well-done video. Love the old clips added over because, in reality, it'd just be a video of you two walking around some concrete and rusted metal in America.
As a European I mean it would be slightly boring but instead I loved every second of the old clips, what it looks like now and then your added info at the end.
Have a lovely Christmas 🎄.
Wow, amazing explore. I love it when you collaborate with Jay. It’s like the Marvel Team-Up of urbex. Wonderful how you interspersed the explore with snippets of the doc. Excellent work guys!
Such a great video. Really shows the sadness and suffering in those institutions. 😢
So many of these abandoned places all around the United States. They just sit there rotting which is even more maddening.
yes, it's sad. but the vandals will break every last window. and once the weather gets in, the building is doomed. when you explore these places, take nothing but pictures, and leave nothing but footprints.
Merry Christmas to the staff of Mobile Instinct as well to the MInation.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you, Jay, your family and followers.🎅
Our needy deserve better
Skid row? Kenningston ave? Which is 'better'?
Money go synagogues!

I know these grounds and its story very well. Excellent coverage.
A tale as old as time. Social services underfunded and understaffed.
Bring these back!
You find the most fascinating places, and sometimes such heart broken people. We need to help one another or we're nobody There but for fortune go you and I (Phil Ochs). Thanks.
This is a perfect example that we all need to be humbled by. Sometimes just one decision can change your life and you go from everything you wanted to being alone in facilities that this used to be. As bad as you think you have it, it can always be worse and usually there is somebody living your worst already. Do not take things for granted, don't say it will never happen to me. The man at the end knows his life should not have ended the way it did. For a while he lived the dream only to focus on his new dream was having glasses, a place to sleep, food to eat and his teeth fixed. No matter what he had lost, he was still appreciative of what he had. Dont ever think you're better than someone else just because you have better things than they do, one day you may not have it either.
I am 62 years old and the 7th of nine children. I've been told all my life by my family that nobody wants you, nobody wants you here. I wish there was a place like this for me to go now. There is nothing for me.
Thank you, Chris! ❤
Just one nitpick: LaGuardia was Mayor of NYC 1934-1946 not Governor.
Came here to say just this
Happy holidays and Happy New Year too Chris,love watching and stay safe out there 😊
I commend you for the title of your vid. So well put!
Merry Christmas Chris,
Merry Christmas Jay.
Anyway.

Vandals suck. Someone just put F-busters on the Welcome to Salem sign in gold. Been thankfully removed. Really the best thing they could do is save the best buildings to restore and remove the rest.
yep. true urban explorers know the rules. take nothing but pictures, leave nothing but footprints.
They helped a lot of men and they tried to
Saw your hey dude / dude ranch video and subscribed. Watching another video of yours. :)
Everyone should read the book "The Denial of Death".
I don’t know why the county can’t fix it up & use it for the same thing,or rebuild the same type of facility,but keep the capacity limited make the whole thing updated for todays standards!Thank you for the video & Merry Christmas to you,your family,& friends!🌠🐫🐫🐫
Because Biden is giving all the money away to another country. He doesn't care about USA
At least the fan still spins!
It does!
that fan is somehow still spinning
They need to reopen this place up. NYC itself could fill this place back up
That security room with all the monitors was pretty cool.
I was quite involved with the Salvation Army Booth House 225 Bowery NYC for nine years as a Minister/Evangelist.....1985-1994..... Bowery was very different back than! Booth House had about 500 men.
Hi! Is there a way to see full documentary you quote?
obviously, this is the one. Thank you!
Nothing much has changed they probably have more homeless now with no place for them to go. So very sad 😢
That's so sad.
If it were not for God's intervention in my life, I could have neded up like so many other people with mental illness, drugs, alcohol etc. What a shame to have this land and structures just waste away.
i was here last year!
would make a great set for an indie horror film
And a Tetanus shot! 😂
The place was like a prison of sorts.
How sad.😢 so very sad.
Camp LaGuardia was basicly the American version of the UK Workhouse where the poor and ill went to work for shelter and food. They were horrid places and not safe and sometimes the conditions were worse than Camp LaGuardia. British workhouses were dreadful places.
We don’t have enough staff.
Every man is required to work.
That doesn’t quite add up.
You still need staff to run the place, to supervise the 'volunteers', perform maintenance, perform medical care, order supplies, etc. 62 staff members for a facility that large that is running 24-7 (3 shifts) is extremely small.
Wow you were right next to me. I live less than a half mile from this place. The place was a burden on our town. Lots of problems from these people. NYC should have just kept their problems to theirselves. The county bought it so the Hasidics couldn't get their grubby hands on it, but I guarantee they'll end up with it either way. They always get their way.
When is your next Bund meeting?
Where is this exactly located? Manhattan?
The idea is great, repurposing abandoned/unused property for a homeless shelter... the execution was terrible.
This looks like kings park insane asylum on Long Island. I swore that’s what it was at first.
nice video. ended too soon.
I'm pretty sure this place is a map in one of the old call of duties on Playsation I swear. Anyone else feel they recognize it?
There, but for the grace of God, go I.
Wow, what a history. It's a shame with the current state.
So sad
Is a sad side the county should fix it up you know, even though it will be expensive. The least you can do is make changes and stay history on the poverty, but build it for the homeless and medical room for them to get help as well.😢 if the candy have enough that will help in some lives to live in there to get back on their feet
Sad with all the money our government wast we can’t take better care of our mentally ill and homeless. Start with all the money sent to Ukraine and Israel how many good hospitals and shelters could be build and kept well staffed. Trillions going overseas think about that.
Yes!!!!
You should see what other countries do with their marginalized people. This is way better than it could be.
@rustyshackleford6018 , maybe you could give them some pocket sand.
Considering how rich the US is and always was, this is a disgrace..
It’s way worse than it could be too
Why were ( and are ) Men penniless and forgotten?
Asking for a friend....
Just amazed how quickly abandoned locations just go to shit so quickly.
Yes. Decay sets in quickly without maintenance like the doors, windows, roofs, heating, and air conditioning. Plus, the number and frequency of vandals and scrappers.
That poor bastard at the end lost everything to alcohol. What a shame.
So very sad but true what goes on in our world.
if you remember munt helen what are the two other mauntens names
PIKE ROAD, but we had no showers and sinks!
Elon Musk is currently "worth" FIVE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS, if he actually cared imagine what good he could do for Soo many?
Yes, it's up to him to fix things. LMAO Or how about the billions of tax dollars we send overseas for NOTHING in return?
Wtf does Elon musk have to do with this?🤦🤦
@@stubstoo6331You identified the problem. GREED is the deadliest of the SEVEN SINS.
@@stubstoo6331As a significant percentage of his FIVE HUNDRED BILLION DOLLARS net worth has come from Governmental contracts, EVERYTHING!!!
Places like this were so bad that the government's solution was to close them down - all those poeple nowadays are living on the streets.
Wear a mask in those places, so many dangerous particles floating around in there
Lead and asbestos. There I said it.
You’re right. They’ll bulldoze it and make it into a “green, sustainable” zone or put solar panels or wind turbines on it.
Lamont sent me.

HI CHRIS, SO SAD! THIS IS NOT NO SUMMER CAMP.. STAFFING IS AWFUL.. REMINDES ME OF ONE FLEW OVER THE COOKOO'S NEST....... LEAD PAINT, HEAVEN.. THX. HAPPY HOLIDAYS, AND THX. FOR ALL YOUR VIDEOS..
Why did he say it's in up state New York, when it's in southern New York? New York City is in southern New York.
Upstate is relative to where in NY you are. In Long Island they think anything north of the Bronx is upstate .
@epe1238 Why? It's obvious New York City, Long Island and Bronx are in the southern part of the state. That doesn't make any sense.
@@garybarnett7284 IDK. I live 5 minutes from where this was filmed. I also lived in Buffalo which is western NY. To me upstate is well north of Albany.
@@epe1238 I think anything above Syracuse is upstate New York. I agree Buffalo is western New York.
😮
Nothing really changes does it? Never enough funding for those in need.

Is it haunted? Did you experience anything paranormal while exploring?
Ghosts don't exist, love
Fix the fixable buildings. Make them into AFFORDABLE housing! But they won’t. Where are the jobs, the businesses, the schools, etc. If they do anything with the property it will be expensive condos for wealthy who drive nice cars, work remotely, etc.
you sure come up with some videos Chris and the research you do. you should go to work as an investigative reporter......
The yt piglet bot sttrikes again. I wonder what the content creator is going to do when they come for his chan? Maybe better for him to turn off comments.
Learn the definition of "soul".
Not the one that grabs clicks, JAG-OFF
It's all about personal responsibility. Make bad choices end up in bad situations. If these people were marginalized they would have been still on the streets of New York. No one is entitled to charity. People took an abandoned womans prison and did what they could.
In America, the suffering of the many derelict and compromised is the sacrifice necessary so the few can live like regals.
Open it back up so these democrats are not on the streets harming the rest of us
