[Music] It's not enough to feel alone and not be heard. Don't know right from wrong, and your lines have all been blurred. Is it me? Is it something I deserve? 'Cause everyone else knows the children of the world. We are the children of the world. [Music] It's a brand new day. [Music] Wow. [Music] Ah. [Music] [Music] I was done. [Music] [Music] Is it you or is it [Music] 'Cause everyone else knows the children of the sun. [Music] [Applause] Things are coming our way. We are the children of the world. [Music] [Music] [Music] Is [Music] [Music] We are the children of the world. [Music] It's a brand new day. [Music] Wow. What's up everyone? It's a Tuesday afternoon, October 26, 2021. It's 5:05 PM, 61 Fahrenheit, 16 Celsius. I'm in the Flatiron District, and I just got finished recording inside the Harry Potter store.

A few days ago, I went inside the Harry Potter store, and I tried live streaming in there, but the basement level gave me some trouble. So, I made sure to go back and record. It's, uh, quite magical in there. I also had some butterbeer, and I think I'm prepared for this walk now. So, uh, let's explore Manhattan. I have an umbrella ready in case there is some rain happening, but right now, it looks like it's holding up. My show, you can't wait to see the footage of the Harry Potter store. Yeah, I mean, it's, uh, quite requested, so I might put it up tomorrow morning, and I think it's fitting right now too with the Halloween season. You may be able to, uh, get a costume in there and dress up as a Harry Potter or one of the characters. Eddie says it's going to be windy tomorrow. Yeah, we have some severe weather warnings. We had some pretty bad rainfall this morning in New York City, but that's all passed now.

Most of the severe weather is north of New York City, hitting New England, Connecticut, Fairfield County, and New York. Says butterbeer tastes like an ice cream soda with a very thick whipped topping on top that tastes like butterscotch. It's very good but also very sweet. Yes, I did a review of the butterbeer at the end of my Harry Potter video. It tastes exactly like butterscotch candy with carbonation. That's what I thought. [Music] This cloud over here doesn't look good, but then it gets sunny over here, so don't really know what to expect in terms of the weather tonight. Connie says it looks like snow clouds. I mean, if the weather was a little bit colder, we might have snow. Governor and Senator William H. Seward, Dutch bike blogger, wondering where the rain is. That we'll find out tonight if it hits New York City or not. Supposedly around like eight o'clock, seven o'clock, that's when rain may be coming back to New York City.

again, but uh, then again, last night it said it wasn't going to rain until 11 p.m., and it started at like 8 p.m., so I was not prepared for the rain. I went back to Queens with the subway. I had to end my live stream early because I wasn't ready. So far, these renovations are looking very good on the Flatiron. You can zoom in, and a lot of the stone is on the side. It's cleaned up and looking very nice. My shell, you watch the Cuomo Bridge scooter ride. It's a long bridge. I know, even long on a scooter. I remember live stream. I walk across it. It took like an hour and a half just to walk that bridge. B. Griffin, the sewage structure famously uses the body of Abe Lincoln, not Stewart. Yes, I heard that before. I think Urbanist hosts exploring cities. No, aerial host of Urbanist exploring cities mentioned that before. This is the location of the first-ever Shake Shack. [Music] It's a lot of leaves he's scooping up.

I guess all those leaves might be coming from, uh, over here. Maybe, maybe this tree is Wayne's asking in New York's Flat Iron Building. Is it just offices or also residential? It is going to be residential and offices as well, mixed-use. Uh, Valerie Ann has a question for Nightbot, but Nightbot won't answer you because it's an AI robot. Uh, some channels in the past requested that questions be in all caps so the hosts can see them, but the comments aren't in all caps. Is it possible, or YouTube senses? It really depends on the channel owner who's doing it, but for me, I enabled the Nightbot to get rid of all caps because it just distracts from the viewership. Capital letters make it really, uh, hard to see comments sometimes, sometimes it's spammed, so I don't want that interfering with the experience. But I will answer comments if they're in lowercase. I can't answer everybody, but I try to get around to the most meaningful questions. Carl Howard with five dollars, you just

watched me uh just finished watching action k cross the Mario Cornwall bridge then turn around come right back such a fearless operation worthy of money thanks Carl I can't believe back and forth that I just use half of my scooter battery on that bridge by itself I can't believe that uh it was that long let's go over to this side to Madison Avenue it's a street that I don't really go uh on too often atomic skittles 678 isn't the first shake shack here uh yes it's right here and I saw atomic skittles uh comment get deleted by nightbot for all caps so try to keep your comments if you can in normal fonts [Music] we've got a lot of insurance companies here these are all the Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and I believe New York Life is the one over here this one's New York Life and over here is Metropolitan Life and this is the MetLife Tower um so Maris Cullen says it seems the worst part of the nor'easter spread spare the

city. It does seem that way because, um, we got a huge outburst of rain in the morning, and then it stopped. But I was hearing there was a lot of flooding in parts of central Jersey and north of New York City, so they get the city to get spared a lot of the rain. Hey, we have super friends in the city in the chat. Super shout out to you. You know, I was also, uh, browsing YouTube right before I started this live stream, and I saw you just finished with a live stream at Rockefeller Center. Dia, dia, dia de los muertos. I was just there. I finished with the, uh, Day of the Dead exhibits at Rockefeller Center, went to Times Square, and, uh, ended it. So we must have just missed each other, maybe by about, like, half an hour or so. You went there earlier than I did. This building is, uh, really interesting. I think it's the Court of Appeals. Ryan PT, is that Sony Studios right there? I believe so. Here's Sony. Oh, is it safe for that, uh,

that construction equipment to be underneath the steam here. I don't know because all that steam is going up against the rubber. The rubber might even melt with all that steam. My shell says it looks like movie equip maybe, but whoever is responsible for this equipment, maybe they should consider moving it. The mighty bull with five bucks. Why no bull in my intro? I don't know. Yeah, maybe the rubber might melt. [Music] Wait a second. I knew my locations were incorrect. I thought this was New York Life, but it's actually the next building over. This is a 41 Madison Avenue. I don't know which companies in this building, but this building over here, the New York Life building. I mean, this building over here is a New York Life building, and it's also home to the original and Martin Michael Mine with five bucks. Thank you, new subscriber. Thanks a lot for all the great videos. Thank you, Michael. Appreciate the support. Thanks so much. I have to say it's getting a little bit gloomy right now in terms of the weather.

also right there straight up the middle is the one Vanderbilt skysweeper. Tom says the other building's New York Life as well. Oh, it is. Yeah, I guess so. They probably have, uh, they need more space, so both buildings are New York Life. Thanks, uh, Huggawookie, for 10 pounds. Thanks for the content. Thank you so much. Thanks for all your support. Appreciate it. Pass through poetry. Am I walking over the Brooklyn Bridge today? No, that's a little bit far from here. I'm not going over the Brooklyn Bridge, especially since I'm expecting a, uh, big rainstorm. I don't want to be caught on the Brooklyn Bridge if it starts, uh, raining lightning. I'd rather be within these tall skyscrapers so the lightning hits the top of the buildings. [Music] Mr. Mizuyaki said greetings from Canoga Park. Hey, I was there. I'm the hardest-working YouTuber, the hardest-working walker on YouTube. Thanks so much. Appreciate the support. Oh man, that driver just spilled coffee out the

window that was a waste of perfectly good coffee. Tony Dean wants to know what New York City's life is like in April, thinking of visiting either April or August. In April, the temperatures are probably in the 60s or 70s Fahrenheit. You'll have the trees starting to bloom, but I don't recommend April if you have seasonal allergies. Thing pouring out on Long Island really bad. Oh goodness, I hope it eases up for you all out there. Barbara P, do I enjoy riding a bicycle or do I feel unsafe? No, I enjoy riding my bicycle. The issue with it is security after I'm done riding my bicycle because New York City is notorious for bike thefts. So, I don't want to lose sight of my bicycle at all. So, I kind of find it a burden having to and worry about it. But, and less heavy, that's why I prefer an e-scooter over a bicycle. But if it wasn't for the risk of a bike being stolen, I would

enjoy riding a bicycle a lot more. I really 400 Park Avenue South. This weather is really strange because we have dark clouds, and then you see like sun on top of the building like right here or the summits. I would uh I would pick the summit yourself. Oh, that's strange. I wonder why there was a little bit of a dead spot there with internet. I refresh it. Hopefully, it gets better. Maybe I can go inside this store here and ask them why a block back there was bad. Oh, 24. I gotta get off the I don't know things going on. I'm walking. Oh, hopefully, it's stabilized. Seems like it was pretty bad. It's getting a lot more crowded here too. 32nd Street [Music]. Yeah, Ryan, I'm getting some buffering in Midtown. That's uh pretty strange. This building is called the Park Avenue Building. Fred T saying nobody wears suits and ties anymore. Everything's casual. Yes, there has been a change in uh corporate America as they move away from that like formal suit and tie wear.

a lot more business casual dress now. Did you get them on? So, this tunnel over here is closed. It used to go right underneath Park Avenue, all the way to the Park Avenue viaduct around Grand Central Terminal. I don't know how long it's going to remain closed, guys. The next stop is Grand Central Terminal on the Lexington Avenue line. Mickey FC asking where I'll be walking on Halloween. Any new sites or events to attend? Um, you'll see when I get there. Barnabas Bullpen with a 499 super chat. First of all, happy birthday to you. Happy birthday. Happy birthday to you. Even the person that there said happy birthday to you. But uh, thanks for going live on my birthday. Thanks. Hey, she's saying happy birthday to you too. Wait, wait, what do you want, man? What do you want, man? So, you better stay away from me. I am. I have the walk signal. Thank you. Yeah, she was like all talk, and then that guy would have been really brave to try something with the NYPD right there.

Two cars. Lindsay's cursing me out for having a camera out. Once in a while, you encounter people like that. I mean, it sucks that the world's like that, but hey, I didn't like how he was kind of looking at me. I had my camera pointed away from him at the intersection, and I was looking back like, Sir, stay away from me. I wasn't recording you anyway. He only made a big deal because you wanted it to, Ken. Says those are traffickers. They wouldn't have done nothing. No, there was actually NYPD there. Empire State with five bucks. Thank you so much, Empire State. Thank you so much. I mean, I don't like to show stuff like this in New York City, but you know, once in a while, you're gonna have weird people and crazy people like that who just don't like to be on camera for whatever reason. It's not my fault. It's their issue. Wall Street skate, bro. Thank you so much. Have a great week. Thanks, Tom. I don't know why [Music].

nick d says good and bad error. That was nice of the lady wishing happy birthday. Yes, to uh barnabas bullpet. They said barnabas here. Poor barnes had to witness that crazy scene on his birthday. Thank you. It's all with two euros. Just wanted to say thank you for what you do. Thanks a tall. Appreciate the support. Thank you. [Music] Yeah angela. I do let it go. Thanks for your concern. It's not easy doing this kind of work. People think it's so easy just to pick up a camera and then you have like one person like that who just throws you off from advancing any further you know. Here's 37th street. Frank's saying you thought there was supposed to be bad weather in New York today. It looks good to me. Yeah it's holding up. It might later on. There's the top of the Chrysler building. Mickey fc with 4.99. Thanks for sharing your walk with us action kid. What's my favorite New York City skyscraper. It would be

too iconic to uh to make anybody anything else the favorite one mimi's saying it's torrential during uh in port jefferson thanks for doing the port jefferson video thanks so much and robert you never heard of the katano hotel well it's here it's a japanese they have the japanese flag says I'm prepared you assume I'm prepared today with my umbrella yes I have my umbrella today make sure I'm uh purposely avoiding the scaffolding because I hate it it's so narrow in there thanks so much susan fenn though at 499 met life building used to be the pan am building yes it definitely did a lot of people still remember as the pan am building roxanne robles are 4.99 you did good people are so ridiculous it happens melissa solos with 10 bucks thank you melissa appreciate it thanks roxanne and melissa thanks for your concern and everything new york life losses don't worry you have an umbrella I can share I got one

Scott says be careful with people like that. Yes, definitely. All right, maybe we should go to Grand Central Terminal. That's where I was two days ago when I came back from Tarrytown. Debbie St. Romain, thank you so much. Appreciate it. What we're talking about here, Grand Central Terminal. It's rare that you see this angle, classic building housing the railroad. Thank you so much for the super chats, Dan, with 10 bucks. Appreciate the support. I thought that UPS truck was coming this way. Designed by Warren and Wetmore, Reed and Let's Go Stem. Beautiful Tiffany clock at the top there with the sculpture of transportation. You've got Mercury up there, the goddess of communication and travel. Is this a water fountain? Yeah, I guess so. Does it work?

how would this even work anyway? The water shoots out horizontally. Time right now, I guess this is Russia. I will go into Grand Central Terminal. We'll see all the people heading towards their trains, going to upstate New York, Connecticut, maybe all the way to, I don't know how far people travel, mostly upstate New York and Connecticut from here. [Music] Well, that might be the Bank of America Tower. Yeah, I think that's the Bank of America Tower, H&M building. We can't really see. Thanks, Louis Ortiz, for $4.99. Appreciate it. Thanks, Lewis. Wow, look how busy it is today, Grand Central Terminal. A lot less busy than when I went to Tarrytown in the afternoon. Now it's rush hour. Everyone's going home. [Music] Jacqueline Kenney or NASA spoiler who is instrumental in saving Grand Central Terminal from destruction. Rachel's saying Grand Central's so beautiful. It is. Okay, Mark produces lots of New Yorkers, including your software involved in the

effort to save Grand Central. There's a lot of effort, even right now, to uphold it. Some history here: there was a renovation done to the ceiling to clean it of all the tar from cigarette smoke, and that piece of block right there was put as a reminder to how dark the ceiling used to look like. They left that tile unclean, but it's crazy that smoking was allowed all those years, and it made the top all black like that, full of cigarette smoke. So, and inside this clock over here, you have a Metro North information booth, and there's an elevator in the back. Right behind this buffer is actually an elevator. It goes right down to the lower level. Pretty cool. Joseph's saying, Does anyone know the ceiling's backwards? Yes, I know. So, you gotta look at it and think of it as looking from the heavens. This entire constellation is upside down, and it was alerted early on by a student that the constellation was upside down, and they still continued painting it the right way. I mean, they still continued painting it.

the way they were painting it backwards, and the artist just said, Hey, it was the way that God wanted to view the constellation, not the way that we're supposed to look at it from below. So, that was their reasoning, if you could believe it or not. Let's go down to the dining concourse. I want to know what's open right now for eating. Alan Campos says Grand Central Eternal Divine, designed by Spanish artist Gustavino. There are Gustavino tiles in here. I'll show you one once we get to the oyster bar. But the architect is Warren and Wetmore, Reed and Stem. Here's a Spanish building engineer. We'll go right here towards it, the Gustavino vaulting. It's right here by the oyster bar. Square bed with five bucks. Thank you so much. Appreciate it. Giving me five bucks for a coffee and a recharge. Thank you. Thanks for the support. The entire oyster bar is Gustavino tiles. Thank you, Luke Heart Official, 10 bucks.

Next time messed up, I'll just say that that's the way God wanted it. Thank you, Luke. All right, so here's the tiling on the Blue Oyster restaurant. I mean, it's just called the Oyster Bar restaurant. It's a high-end restaurant, by the way. It's Zagat rated. Absolutely beautiful here. You can see the menu, if I could focus. There we go. You're paying a lot of money here for a meal, but it's good original official. Where is this? This is inside Grand Central Terminal on the lower level. But that restaurant notable options are down here in the dining concourse. Here's Shake Shack. Many of these places aren't even open, or they remain closed, but there's still a lot of stores that are serving food at this time. Brandon says, Doesn't seem like a very good location for a high-end restaurant. Yeah, you wouldn't think so, right inside a transit terminal. Here's a high-end bakery, Magnolia. They're famous for being in on that TV show. I forget which one.

vanilla cupcake 395 the prova pizza bar [Music] oh wow oh there's actually monsters on the uh on the cake. I feel as though you like the cake. It's cool. Zaro is bakery. There's another Zaro's bakery on the uh the first level. This train on the lower level is going to the Hudson line. I'll show you some trains while we're here because why not. This one over here is going to the Hudson line regardless of social distancing and vaccination sets. If you pronounce yours please. Here's a leather spa. You can get your shoe shine here. I don't know what hours are open though. Joe coffee. It's hard to marry. Christian says I can shine your shoes. How much can you pay me? I don't know. My shoes could use a shoe shine. Donut plant. So it's in Sweden saying edge NYC has a newer tracking from today. You think you can climb the staircase on the outside of the top? I don't know. That might be interesting.

to look into. I was uh looking at it earlier. I don't think it's open today though. Central Market, New York, Chirping Chicken, Wachi, and uh Mendy's Dairy Appetizing is not open. Kale and Hardy's open though. They're famous for their soups. This over here is going to be the future area of East Side Access, so you can access the Long Island Railroad here. I don't know when it's going to open, but kind of cool. And those you uh remember I said that there was an elevator on the main level from that central area. Well, this is where the elevator leads to the bottom information booth. So, the elevator goes up and down, really cool original official asking if the trains are still running off-peak schedules. Um, I believe that during rush hours they do increase service, but as far as the fares, they're all off-peak fares until the end of the year. [Music] [Music] [Music] You want me to visit the Campbell apartments via the elevator.

The Campbell Bar is over here. I don't think I'll go up there, though. Not today. And since we're mentioning One Vanderbilt, let's walk over there. It's a cool little area. It's connected right to Grand Central Terminal directly. Here it is, One Vanderbilt Shuttle Observation Deck. This is where you go if you want to go to the Summit One Vanderbilt, the newest observation deck in New York City. Bit of a one that you didn't know is this close. Yeah, it's right here. Right here. And if you take the Grand Central Shuttle subway, you'll be left right in front of it. Right here. So super convenient. Not so much of a line right now. So right here, 4, 5, 6, 7, S. The 4, 5, 6, and 7 trains are on the other side of Grand Central that way, but the shuttle trains right here. So that's the shuttle platform. So you get off right here, the exit, and Summit One Vanderbilt is here. You have like almost a direct entrance, and you can catch that Grand Central.

shuttle at the Times Square station. Here it is super cool. Christian says good info thanks. You know what I'm curious because the uh the Grand Central shuttle is kind of close to the um street level. Maybe I could ride it to Times Square and it'll stay connected because it does stay connected in that uh in that passage square and it's pretty much at the same level. So I'm curious. It's only one stop anyway. Let's ride the Grand Central shuttle. The Times Square one stop. It's the only station that it serves or the only two stations that it serves. Times Square shuttle or Grand Central shuttle. Only one stop. You can't get lost. Only leaves in one minute. Yay yes worth a try right Bob. You can see that uh it's pretty clean. They uh redone. We did the shuttle. They added more cars to it and uh they got rid of all the seats. So it's just leaning poles and seats at the end. One stop the Times Square FC say the only S in the city. No there's a Franklin Avenue shuttle in

Brooklyn. There's also the, uh, Rockaway Beach shuttle, and you got this one. There's three of them, but I think they, uh, label the, uh, shuttle trains differently internally on MTA. All right, let's see if we'll stay connected or not. One stop. Nice. All right, cool. We made it today. That's it. That was the one stop. Last stop. So, the connection was in and out, okay? At least it didn't totally drop. One of the quickest subway rides you'll have. Grand Central, the Times Square. I knew if all of the underground subways, the Grand Central shuttle may be the one that will hold up the best, and looks like that theory was true. One minute, the train just goes back and forth all day between Grand Central and Times Square. These are the original IRT or railings. That's it. It's leaving now. That was quick. Just goes back and forth, back and forth. So, oh, and you love the old subway. It's cool. 42nd Street and Broadway. Back in the old days, you can go right.

into the Nikabaka hotel from the store. This station originally was called 42nd Street and Broadway, but it got connected to the Times Square complex. You could read history, the history of the station here, cool little informational poster. The Times Square shuttle station, first known as 42nd Street and Broadway, was one of the original 28 stations on New York City's first underground subway line. You see direct entrances of the New York Times building and the Knickerbocker hotel, and they kept it, they preserved it. This is what it used to look like, that entrance, and here's the track layout. [Music] All right, now we're going to Times Square 42nd Street and Broadway. It's the original entrance, Times Square. Whoa, Thursday afternoon. Wait, weights, weights available. It didn't work. [Music] Rachel says it looks so weight. It does. I wasn't going to. Oh, classic car, Chevy. [Applause] Adoption. I still, they still didn't fix. I mean, I see they still didn't fix the

billboards on the side of the New York Times building. Okay, let's see if it's busier today. This walk signal still isn't working. I kind of remember it's still not working either the last time I was here. It takes that long to fix a walk signal in Times Square. Oh, we gotta put wide-angle mode on. It's much better for Times Square. I want to walk this way to show you the Harry Potter theater. Here's the side of the Paramount building. It houses the Hard Rock Cafe. Ling say I'm the best YouTuber. Thanks. I don't really show these side streets too much around Times Square, so we'll go explore them and see what the theaters are up to. I never even noticed that at the top of the building there. It looks like a Quidditch ball from Harry Potter, which is very fitting because I used the Harry Potter spell on the weight talking crosswalk, and I came from the Harry Potter store too. That's pretty funny. The first theater I walked past is the

harry potter one. Here's Haroos restaurant and sushi bar. Pretty crowded, you know. It's also crowded Los Tacos Numero Uno. I think probably John Barr from here, B Bar Channel, and me hyped this place up probably too much. That's why there's so many people here. Oh my goodness, crazy ladies because it's Taco Tuesday. Oh yeah, and Taco Tuesday and everyone goes to Los Tacos Numero Uno. Well, they need to do a lot of renovation in here. I'm going to go over to 8th Avenue and then walk on the next street over, 48th, 4th. I'll do it for all the side streets, why not? These are where all the theaters are. Oh goodness [Applause] so a loud car. Let's see how much is parking in Times Square. An hour is $44.77. Yikes, yikes. You can see like a quarter of a Broadway play for that money. Here's the West End Hotel, man, it's tall. Times Eatery, forwards around New York, so 10 hours.

with 60 bucks, so you can do a Broadway show and dinner and drive back. Yeah, that might be worth it, right? There's the famous Shake Shack of Times Square. Yes, Rosie Scoro, thank you so much for 9.99. Appreciate it so much. Thanks. All right, 44th and 8th. We're going back to 7th Ave. Maybe on the other side of the street, it'll be better. We'll pass by the Majestic Theater. Here's the St. James Theater. Ryan's asking if the gift shops are profitable. I don't know. They sure sell their stuff for the cheap, inexpensive. I don't know if they draw on enough business to be profitable or not. The rents here must be astronomical. St. James Theater right now. They're showing David Byrne's American Utopia. Chris asking, is there really any really good pizza around here? Um, there's a pizzeria around here, but I'm not too familiar with it. All right, here's Jagged Little Pill. Is burning Jagged Little Pill.

It might be filling up the theater right now. Oh my goodness, can't even walk on the sidewalk here. [Music] It's showtime. That's jagged little pill that people lined up for. There's also a bowling alley near Times Square or in Times Square, the Bow Giant Arcade. Oh my gosh, look over here to Kill a Mockingbird. Everyone's going in now. Boy, is this another one? I don't know. Yeah, it is. To Kill a Mockingbird. HNT, thank you so much for three bucks. AK, New York's greatest person. Thanks, HNT. Appreciate it so much. To Kill a Mockingbird, everyone in line. Killer Mockingbird over here. Yay, another show over here is Junior's restaurant. They're famous for their cheesecake. It's a killer mockingbird. I mean, to kill them. That was back there, but that's Junior's cheesecake by this show. The Lion King is that way. Let's go over to Lion King this way. Is the marquee hotel. You can go up to the lobby here.

on the eighth floor, Angela said, You think this crowd waits till the show lets out the doors and people rush? I know it's the Broadway rush, David. You like the junior's cheesecake and the egg cream, okay? If you just want the bakery, the bakery is over here. The Lion King, award-winning best musical, Lion King, the mink stop here. [Music] Wow, the Lion King's busy too, crazy. Look how busy they are. Uh-oh, someone dropped their umbrella. I think thought it was their phone, but thanks CBC 0071, 25 bucks. Rain moving in from the east soon. Get yourself an umbrella. I have one big one. I've been carrying it this whole time. Ben and Jerry's, Carmine Steakhouse. Carmine's is famous. We'll show it busy in there. Helen asking, Do I know how much it is to see Lion King? I'm not sure. You could probably check the website and find out. HNT, It's been a busy day. Gotta jump out the chat. Thanks HNT. Thanks for

moderating. It's much appreciated, and thanks to all the moderators too. I know it's been very, uh, busy tonight. 44th street, uh, it gets hard to walk around sometimes. Now, that's a big Uber Eats and McDonald's ad. I wonder if they share the advertising for that billboard. And of course, he got McDonald's right below it. Earl Jones wants to know how close of mine to Rockefeller Center. I'm pretty close. I'm maybe about like five, six blocks from it. Here's the line friend store. If you want to take a picture with this big, big teddy bear, you can. Hey, welcome to hey unbelievable. Bring home this teddy bear, and you could, uh, I don't know, you won't have the space for it maybe. Thank you, bye. I have some pictures of that teddy bear. They've also got some more props inside. Get your umbrella. That's right. Look at this guy. Get your umbrella. Let's get your umbrellas. Rain's coming. They know there's the other side of the Lion King.

uh, let's go through this way through the Marriott Marquis. No, don't walk now; he almost got ran over. All right, I guess I should go to the crosswalk. So busy, it's even hard to cross the street. Two steps says great video action, always exciting. Thanks, haven't shown these side streets too much in Times Square. It's great to see Broadway back. The mercy, do I have plans on watching Matrix Resurrection in the cinema? No, I don't have any plans to watch it. I didn't even know it was coming out. Marriott Marquis Hotel, I was here earlier, and I ended a video in here. I'll go up the lobby; you can see it. So if you want to stay at the Marriott, you can. It's pretty impressive. It's my first time. It was my first time in this hotel today in the lobby. As a native New Yorker, you don't think to go inside hotels because you live here. Why would you rent a hotel room when you live here? The elevators are all

like this. Why is saying there's a revolving restaurant. I know I saw it. It's pretty crazy, but you go right up to the eighth floor, and the lobby is right there. Crazy elevators, and you have to press the button right here. It tells you what floor you're going to, which elevator to take. So, eight, and take elevator number O. So, we gotta look for O. Oh, here's O. All right, and here's the hotel lobby. Gritsy. Insane. I'm getting some buffering. Well, that's to be expected in the elevator. I hope there's no buffering in here. Am I buffering in here? I hope not. Gray eyes saying which hotel has the restaurant that spins around. It's this one over here. Here, I'll show you the elevator as it comes down. I wanted to go to the exterior one. Here it comes. It's a fast elevator. Double says hotel lobby tour one day. I think the rotating hotel is this one, the Rebel Rye. Really cool place. I showed you the M Social hotel before. That one was really nice.

this one's nice too. Here's the Rebel Rye restaurant goodness like we got way back from says that's a beautiful hotel. It is. I'm surprised. Why would I ever go inside a hotel in Times Square because I live here. But I was like yeah maybe I should check it out to find booking a room and uh I can say that looking up this is a darn nice in New York. So just from the lobby alone I'd recommend it for people to come here and spend the night. Max says it's 300 a night on average. That's a New York City prices for you expenses to stay in Times Square. Roger you asked me what hotel is this. This is the Marriott Marquis hotel. Marriott Marquis. Hopefully we get an exterior elevator this time. Let's try the left-hand side. All right so we push this one street exit elevator A. All right we get an exterior view elevator now. Nice here we go going down here we go zoom yeah all right so cool halo weenie say that.

what show is this now? There's people lined up for this. What in the world? 45 and what show is people lining up here. Oh, I knew it. Hamilton. Everyone wants to see Hamilton right now. It's showtime because show business is Broadway, right? There's no business like show business then. Well, Miranda is probably performing. Craziness. I can't even cross the street from here. Let's go back. Don't worry. Step forward if you're having Angela's saying Lin's not performing. Ah, too bad. He's the man. Oh, and says energy is awesome. I hope it continues. I know, and I came at the right time when all the Broadway shows are going in. Here's Teen Eternal, the musical. Oh, there's an entire tour bus coming to Times Square. Happy four. Okay, they want it from old Broadway. Look at that Phantom of the Opera mask right in the middle. Hop on, hop off pass. Oh, what is going on here? There's so much he's gonna like blow some steel. They're doing something here, and this building is going to be

decked out when it finishes tsx broadway. Oh, I think they closed it off because they're expecting the rain. Well, you know what it is, it's wet. That's why they close it, they don't want anyone slipping. But we could stand here, we'll do a little panorama around Times Square, insane and things we can do. I don't know all the lyrics to this song and I should be embarrassed in New York. This is [Music]. Well, I kind of do when there's copyright and I don't feel like muting it. Dreams are made, that's right. Let's do 47th street. You want me to go to Olive Garden? Olive Garden is inside there. There's nearly not much of a view from Olive Bar unless you sit down and eat. The last side street in Times Square between Broadway and 8th Avenue. This Starbucks, by the way, is huge. People come here and they get the Starbucks cups. Here's the W Hotel at Times Square. Yes, three men's gluten-free pioneers.

barrymore theater featuring the waitress. They're filling up now too. The two police wants me to show the Edison hotel. This is the Edison ballroom. They have the gates rolled down, so I don't think I can go in here. Hey, Jaycations here. What's up? I remember walking these streets with you, eating power, loving the content, give yourself a new subscriber. Greetings from Scotland. Thank you, Eden, appreciate the support. Here's a Samuel Freeman theater. We're near our restaurant row. Maybe we'll check that out, see what people are doing now. The Mean Fiddler, that's a cool name for a pub. [Music] Is oh, let's cross the streets. Lorraine 74, no Halloween decorations there. Yeah, no Halloween decorations around here or limited ones. Brittany wants to know if it's a good time to visit New York City now or do you think next year will be better. I think any time is a great time to visit New York City. Paula, you're not allowed to bring food.

inside a show. That's right. I don't even think you can bring umbrellas. That's in forward slash driver. No delivery experience required. Hourly rate includes a limited time. Zach, you're all booked for April 2022. You're excited. Awesome. Hope you have a great time here. Let's check out restaurant row. Wonder if restaurant row will be busy tonight. It's usually better on this side of the street. Taxman 81. What street is this? This is 46th street and 8th avenue. I'll be walking to 9th avenue and I'll show you restaurant row. Is this the rue plaza New York Times Square hotel? Probably cheaper than the Marriott just because it's off of Times Square a little bit. Frankie and Johnny steak shops. Yeah, seems to be a little bit quiet on restaurant row. Probably because all those theater goers are going to the theaters now and not at the restaurants. It makes sense. Dim sum palace. [Music] Grant says Joe Island's famous. Is it good? All these restaurants are good here.

[Music] Cantina and Kitchen. Christine says it does look quiet. Will the outdoor seating continue indefinitely? For now, we'll continue indefinitely, but I don't know how long. Well, there's been talks of some local residents wanting to get rid of it now because they just attract people to loiter there and stay overnight. And not only that, since it's outside, people are loud. And you have to remember that even though this restaurant row, people live here in these houses. So they live right above the streets here, and you have all these outdoor dining areas with people yapping like this all throughout the night. Christine says you can see our neighbors would find the people eating there annoying after a while. It's true. I don't know. I was just like, you know, sometimes [Music] So this is Ninth Avenue. We're in the Hell's Kitchen area. Hell's Kitchen, there's a lot of restaurants here too. Not so busy tea burgers, Hell's Kitchen, and actual neighborhood. It is whoa. I love these Halloween decorations.

here at this restaurant so cool pumpkins. They got cobwebs, a skull. It's not like okay some of their investments. Joey says you love my videos, makes me feel there. I feel like you're there. Thanks Bob says hell's kitchen is also known as Clinton. They wanted to change the name to Clinton or Midtown West or even Midwest, but all those names didn't really gain too much popularity. Asian food, nobody inside that restaurant. You know what, it may rain soon. I just felt a raindrop on my face. I have a feeling it's gonna rain. Rachel say deploy umbrella. Not yet, hopefully it's not too bad. Andreas Bob's in, did I see a PayPal donation in the live stream? No, the PayPal donations don't show up on the stream because there's really no way for me to link them properly. But thank you so much. Yup, yup, yup, it's raining here. Here it finally is. That title was right, potential rain. It is rain now, umbrella going up. I wonder how heavy it's gonna get.

there was saying uh earlier this afternoon that the rain from the north like kind of wraps around and all hit the city back in the evening. E-man said it raining all day in Connecticut, I heard so. The lights are pretty in Hell's Kitchen. Battle Flaherty, you donate through PayPal. Any chance of a shout-out to Marlene from Kildare, Ireland. All right uh Mauldin, thanks so much. Appreciate your support. Thank you gosh hard to me to juggle stuff with an umbrella now. There's an actual restaurant called Hell's Kitchen. Hell's Kitchen in Hell's Kitchen. Oh man that was a close call right McCoy's Irish pub huh. Sounds like this ring and get pretty heavy any second. It's just the beginning I think it's a good thing that all those people going to see the Broadway shows probably are already seated so they have to deal with this. That's good timing on their part but I don't know if it's going to be good time when they get out especially

because the uh Broadway shows, they made them take all their umbrellas. So that's going to be a hassle trying to figure out whose umbrella begins, which umbrella begins, belongs to who. Yo, what are you doing? I'm walking here, I'm walking here. Walk signal, what an idiot. I have to say it, tradition, restaurant, ticket. I hope the camera caught it. Yeah, mine, uh oh, the rain's coming up, snowing bro, he's walking fast. Yeah, Grant is raining hard now. This is it, Lena said this stream is an interesting event so far, plus this rain. I know, very of a varied stream today. Got to see a lot of different sides of New York just in a span of just over two hours. Be Griffin say this is turning into a black in shadow video, sort of. All right, I'm gonna walk off of uh 9th Avenue now and make a right here. I don't know what this street is. Wow, that's neat that uh biker had an umbrella attached to his head. My show, you like the walks in the rain.

As long as it's not a torrential downpour, I actually don't mind the torrential downpour as long as you're prepared for it because you know you're gonna get wet anyway. Just, you know, dress accordingly. What I don't like are the, uh, is the weather where it kind of like drizzles and then it gets all over the place and it like rains but kind of doesn't. So, that's the weather I hate. I want it to either rain or it doesn't rain. Ease me, just snow flooding. Yeah, flooding is no good either. Definitely don't want flooding. It's a quiet block here on 55th street. Oh, Steve says it just started raining in Two Bridges in Chinatown. It took that long? Took that long? The rain over there. Wow. Hannah's saying it's dry in Brooklyn. That happened to me one time. It was, uh, dry in Brooklyn and then raining in Manhattan and I was on the Brooklyn Bridge when it was completely dry. It never rained at all and it was raining in

times let's square mcgee's pub. I like the sign, the neon sign up there, so foreign. I still you love the reflections of the rain, it's nice. That's me, what's up, stay dry man. That's so cool, he just recognized me in the side street, just put his umbrella up. Thanks so much, Ben Botana for 10 New Zealand, shout yourself. Uh, what does it say? Uh, shout yourself a hot drink after the stream, thank you. Yeah, yeah, what's up, yeah, thanks man, get home all right. Wow, thanks Ben, thanks for the support. That's an interesting umbrella, what's that supposed to be? Maybe that's Batman using his cape for an umbrella, it works. The Shebo Taurus is a new type of umbrella, maybe it'll be a new design, right? Uh, inverted jacket umbrella. Oh, oh, something though, second pair asking where are we. This is uh, 55th street and 7th avenue. This is also where I think I'm going to go down to the subway because my human knees are getting to me now.

I want to go back home and clean up and also get something to eat. I don't feel like walking in the rain with an umbrella, even though I have one. Let's close this up, all right? New York City subway. Let me show you the 1.05 trick again. Refill your card, and with the cash app, you can activate the MTA boost, which gives you a dollar back after spending a dollar or more. So, I'm going to put a dollar and five cents on it. What do I want to add? Add a value, value other amounts, a dollar and five cents, enter credit card please, did my credit card. Let's flip the cam around. This trick has gotten me many, many, like close to free rides. It only costs 13 cents a ride doing it this way. Enter my zip code. All right, charging dollar and five cents. Okay, yay metro card. Do I want to receive? No, I don't need one. That's cool, Ray, a saying that's a nice hack. It is. I showed it on my Action Kit Extra channel how it works.

All right, let's uh do this. Thank you, lighten up with five bucks. Appreciate it so much. Thank you, ding dong. Right, folks, I'm going to sign off today. Thanks so much for joining the live stream. Appreciate all your viewership, all your super chats. Thanks for the moderators for helping people later. All take care, smash the like button, subscribe, and I'll see you soon.
