Albany is the capital of the U.S. state of New York and the seat and largest city of Albany County. Albany is located on the west bank of the Hudson River approximately 10 miles (16 km) south of its confluence with the Mohawk River and approximately 135 miles (220 km) north of New York City.
Albany is known for its rich history, commerce, culture, architecture, and institutions of higher education. Albany constitutes the economic and cultural core of the Capital District of New York State, which comprises the Albany-Schenectady-Troy, NY Metropolitan Statistical Area, including the nearby cities and suburbs of Troy, Schenectady, and Saratoga Springs. With a 2013 Census-estimated population of 1.1 million the Capital District is the third-most populous metropolitan region in the state. As of the 2010 census, the population of Albany was 97,856.
The area that later became Albany was settled by Dutch colonists who, in 1614, built Fort Nassau for fur trading and, in 1624, built Fort Orange. In 1664, the English took over the Dutch settlements, renaming the city as Albany, in honor of the then Duke of Albany, the future James II of England and James VII of Scotland. The city was officially chartered in 1686 under English rule. It became the capital of New York in 1797 following formation of the United States. Albany is one of the oldest surviving settlements of the original British thirteen colonies, and is the longest continuously chartered city in the United States.

Thank you. I really enjoyed to travel Albany again. It's been almost 30 years since graduation SUNY Albany.
Graduated from SUNY Albany in 94 moved away as soon as I graduated. Upstate Ny, Vt, NH, beautiful, but Albany Co already was at 09% sales tax even in 94, and the stupid restrictive gun laws because of NYC was to much. I already owned pistols by the time I was starting college, but couldn’t have them in Ny. Lived through the blizzard of 93 🤓
Thirty years ago Albany was already on the decline and has gotten worse. Shootings and crime are out of control. Living off campus in the midtown campus area can be hazardous to your health.
@@robertwright180 I lived out in Voorheesville. They were having problems with thugs in CrossGates Mall even back then.
Very cool tour.Albany is such a unique city.. small yet big quiet yet busy.... pound for pound has the most beautiful architecture and city scape than anywhere I’ve ever lived. It is just waiting to re- activate! High taxes a huge impediment... lots of poverty that appears to be isolated in many areas... feels almost by government policy-design. Has so so so much potential...if you want beautiful architecture, cool restaurants, bars, small town feel, great access to airport-train station, easy access to outdoor life and enough music theater culture to satisfy.... give it a chance. Of. Purse when Rona is over
👍
Your videos make me feel that there is wonderful community of walkers and riders on TH-cam and I won't have to feel lonely when I am on your channel. Thank you. : )
Full Watch
Thanks for this vid. Borne and raised there, spent the first 24 years of my life there (S. Hawk ST) , joined the Army in 1991 and haven't been back since. Brings back lots of memories. Thanks again.
Drove right by my old house on Manning Blvd just off of 2nd av, good to see the old neighborhood again, left 30+ years ago when the getting was still good, thanks.
Great video
My 2nd hometown, spent 7 years of my life. I still miss the city and people. Thanks!!
I lived in and around Albany................twice. First time in the mid-1990's. Second time about 5 years later. In theory, I think The Capital District is a great place to live. I don't know about now, but it was relatively affordable, I found the people to be relatively friendly, it's full of history, and you're between 2 to 4 hours from NYC, Boston, Montreal, Burlington. The principle reason that I left was that the job market in upstate NY in general, is not particularly robust.
Unless you're self employed, (and you're used to earning $50,000 to $100,000/year), for the most part, you need to be a public school teacher, a cop/fire fighter, something in nanotechnology, physician, nurse, engineer, perhaps a CPA.
When I was there, there was not a Fortune 500 company headquartered within a 100 mile radius of Albany.
looks like a great place. so clean and tidy. i would love to live there
What a fast zoom around the capital region!
Hi friend how are you doing?
What states do you live?
💐💐💐
Thankyou very much, now i know how city is 😍😍
Looking great! Thank you for share.
You're not seeing the real city, Albany has become a huge ghetto, it's a dump. Shootings almost every day, four killed in gang violence this year. These classic old buildings mean nothing now. So sad.
i love so much this city... may i'm coming soon to leaving there !
10:02 💙 heart shaped cloud
enjoy for the ride
Thank you.
In love if Albany I also life there the first highway was interstate 787 next too Wal-Mart
The MTA New York City D subway Line that is in New York City should go to the Lake George that is in upstate New York.
You have to drive fast considering the lights are set to 53.6 mph in order to get through them.
Grow up there,downtown ..lived in the Green St’s Projects still “74”. Thanks for the flashback..plz tag some of the street corners for references.
Look Around does the New York City subway go to upstate new york?
For someone like me who probably could never visit united states these vides are very appreciated!
Go play the DVD lottery for green card...it's coming this october.
@@itsallgood8206 I'm good, I just bought a piece of land in my homeland. I guess I'll spend rest of my life with my family happily I hope!
@@RameenFallschirmjager what country?
@@itsallgood8206 Iran.
@@RameenFallschirmjager oh 👌
Albany is different from what I expected when I visited in 2020.
The MTA New York City bus should go to Albany on the M42 bus Line
The New York City L subway line should go to Monticello
the highways are much better than the ones in NYC.
Drove to Albany once for fun, was sad to see how dead it was. Then again I'm from Queens 😆
It is dead.
You think Albany's dead?. Go to Syracuse lamoo
@@jessegomes6366 you do realize Syracuse is home of the British mafia right? I’m surprised you made it out alive
Albany is a hole and a depressing place to live. I left there 21 yrs ago and never looked back. Now live in beautiful Miami Beach.
@Pedro Ivan Sanchez OH wow. I love South Beach and living in a walkable , diverse community, 4 blocks from the Ocean. I am home visiting Upstate NY currently and it is a total bore and a bit depressing . Can't wait to get back to my city.
Hi friend how are you doing today?
This video doesn't have anybody eating lunch hey this video doesn't have anybody eating lunch
My hometown born & raised love it and hate it
Show me clifton park
(Pronunciation is “Madison” Ave, not “Medison.”) Good tour, though!
What a typo 👍
Why this name sounds familiar
@@LookAroundChannel It was a pronunciation matter, not spelling. (Thanks for mentioning it, though, so I could edit my original comment; I would never be such a jerk as to correct a minor spelling error…btw, it’s “typographical,” not “typo”. 😏
@@yuvalgabay1023 james Madison and someone else wrote the US constitution.
You dont have to writh the name of the street twice
You should have kept going up Clinton and not up Second. I live on Clinton. So much potential in this city, but taxes and poor politics hinder it
making us wait threw lights really lol
