I love Elizabeth street garden, I go there quite often. So cool to see all these public clocks! With the one in Union Square on 14th st it's already 3, interesting to see that time is so important in Manhattan that artists feel the need to display its measurements in their creations.

Thanks for posting a video about the merchant mariners.My father was one of the lucky ones who made it back.

Oh my goodness! Hidden gems? Thanking you for exposing these unique locations and letting us know of a few of the more eclectic, beautiful spots to experience in Manhattan. Definitely will be visiting 2 of your mentions during my late summer visit.

Awesome video as usual John!
We loved that soldier memorial in battery park: we found it by chance!
Hope you’re going back to Puebla 🇲🇽 some day!

This channel is very unrated. Keep up the great work!

Awesome! I will keep a lookup for those hidden gems while I visit NYC in June! thanks for the recommendations

The Elizabeth St. Garden is one of my favorite places in the city. That legal battle has been going on for years. Hope the garden prevails. Check out the Basilica of St. Patrick's Old Cathedral around the corner on Mulberry St. Couple of times a year, they bring in sheep to mow the church yard!

Great content John. Thank you for all of these videos.

Jon, did you just say you were frolicking about? I don't know why that made me laugh so hard, still am😂. This was a really interesting video, thanks for taking the time to make it.

[sherrillgaston]

What an awesome video Jon ! I'm looking forward to my visit to the Big Apple on Memorial Day weekend.

This guy has given so many new ideas for my trip in may. Thank you.

It's hard to miss the clock - I noticed it when I occasionally worked downtown in the late 1970s - it was really hard to miss. Back then you couldn't look it up on line. I'm not even sure I knew it was a clock. I am associated (very remotely) with the developers who want to build in the Elizabeth St. garden. It is the politicians who desperately want this to be developed, not the developers. The pols talk a green game, but they also want low income housing (inhabited by more Democratic voters) more than open space.

Your videos are always useful and entertaining. Congratulations on the new good news as well!

Off work unwell. These gems keep my spirits up. 👍

I can’t wait to go to the new rooftop park at pier 57!

[honorrolls]

Oh my Jon you have done it again. A scent museum, only in New York how interesting indeed, have a question how did you and Ben pass a dumpling restaurant and not stop. That building clock is awesome. But I truly feel that sidewalk clock should be rescued and put in a museum or better yet in that hidden gem garden. Take and as always thanks for the entertainment

Wow. I worked across the street from that weird digital clock above Starbucks and never even gave it a second thought! I can appreciate its uniqueness.
