Lexington, Kentucky Downtown Walking Tour - Virtual City Walks and Treadmill tours in 4K

I’m moving to Lexington in May and can’t wait! I’m originally from Nashville, but moved to Cincinnati in 2015 liked it here too, but I’ve always been a Kentucky Wildcats fan. I’ve always loved going to Lexington so I figure why not make it home so I am!

Thanks for visiting our little town. It is unfortunate that you didn't have a local with you to point out some of the downtown features we are proud of. You really missed a great place to visit, 21 C Hotel (where you noticed the twisted street lamps. They are very inviting to visitors and have a very interesting art collection available to the public.

Great video, Henry! The quality is very clear, and it's crazy how far you can see ahead in portions of these videos. Lexington is a lot cleaner than I expected. My son and I enjoyed the walk! An aspect of your walks that we often get a kick out of is when you mention something right after my son and I were chatting about it or you start talking about something right when we are. Ha, and it isn't the obvious stuff either. 😁 Hard to explain here in text, but needless to say, it is cool...it's like we are all literally walking together and chatting. I wanted to let you know that I am off of all medications now and have lost 17 pounds, and my son has lost 25 (since March, 6 months). Thanks to City Walks and, of course, clean eating! 🤜🏼🤛🏼 Thanks, Henry! ⛪️🏤🌳🚶♂️🚶♀️🚶🌳⛲️

Yes, it’s funny how mines can get in sync. I’m glad you guys are enjoying these, but I’m even more glad that they are helping you get healthier. So glad to hear about getting off the medications and the weight loss. It’s certainly a journey and, it takes a lot of work. Well done and I’m really impressed by that. Glad to be part of your journey. - H.

You missed the Mary TOdd Lincoln house. IT was next to Rupp arena. Across from the old Court House was the 21C Hotel which has a museum in it and a cafe quite stunning inside. The 1920 style building high rise at the 20min mark in the video. Has the 2 blue penguins on the top of the main street entrance awning. I dont think you saw them. Hope you come again for a visit.

@@CityWalks Wow. You are really going to kick yourself. When you went through the Baptist Church parking lot and stepped down to Main St as a short cut? Look at 43:42 footage. The brick house with the two chimney stacks across the street is The Mary Todd Lincoln House. Still a wonderful video though. Thanks
Lol wasn't expecting to see my hometown pop up like this. Outside of college basketball, we don't come up in many conversations 😆

That church toward the end of the video looks a lot like The old First Baptist Church in Eugene, Oregon. Almost to a t. Probably not enough restrooms for all the ladies after church on Sunday or maybe a gym in the basement hahaha

@@CityWalks that’s what I’m thinking. And that church is now called The Shedd or something like that. It was bought by some music group but they have to keep the First Baptist Church sign up on the front. I think the church still owns the building but built a bigger church. Thst one was built right at the beginning of the Great Depression. Also you mentioned some Carnegie buildings. I think that family funded a lot of public buildings all over the country try . Lots of libraries with similar construction and grassy lawn layouts to make them people friendky

Great work Henry. Correct me if I am wrong but your US cities seem to be very clean and tidy compared to the Uk. Obviously there will be exceptions

Interesting observation. I wouldn’t normally think so actually. Perhaps because I focus on the downtown areas that tend to be kept a little bit cleaner? Also, perhaps because many US cities are less dense and people spend more time in their cars, there’s less potential for litter. Interesting perspective from another country though. Thanks so much. - H.
So if you live down town, where would you go on a run?

These walks are ruined by the constant chatter of the walker filming. The channel Tyler walks is MUCH better because he doesn't talk. It's better because I don't have to mute it and I get the sights AND sounds of the location in the city where Tyler is walking.

Hi Gail, I complete appreciate how these might not be what you like but it’s sort of the niche I have chosen. When I’ve gone silent most of the comments are from loyal viewers asking that I bring it back. I suggest you stick with Tyler as that’s not what I really do here. Thanks for giving us a try though. -H
