Everytime I go to far rock on Conduit ave I say to myself, perfect place to dumb a body and get away with it.

I’d be careful driving down there. The potholes are the size of craters and you can’t see them because it’s almost always flooded. I go down there all the time for my job. There’s been many a time I thought my truck would get stuck in a crater

The flooding is terrible in graveyards in Louisiana. After Katrina, a ton of above ground graves/,bodies floated away. It was abhorrent.

I grew up in Brooklyn. This was common knowledge to us back then. They used to also dump bodies at the docks by the gowanus. The area is a bit cleaned up with Costco and other merchants but an ex gf of mine, her told me stories about they find bodies back there all the time. Over there in East NY where you're filming I have family over there. My uncles told me people used to live back there and still do. They'd see the mafia pulling up late at night pulling bodies out the trunk. This is one of the big reasons why they took so long to build that shopping center. I heard everything they start digging they'd find another body. The same as you mentioned at the dump behind gateway. I'm not sure if you're aware but the Lindenwood diner is the diner from goodfellas. Everybody in those projects knew about this. You could see them from the terrace at night. The old Brooklyn

I remember going into this area when I was a kid in the late 60's. My father took me to a house there to visit a gunsmith named Mike for repairs on a rifle. I was about 12 y.o. and Mike had one of those 1920's "Tommy guns" you see in the gangster movies. Mike said "Let the kid hold it" and passed it to me. Mike was in a wheelchair from some kind of disability or injury but was an expert on guns.

Anyway, there's the flooding amid those lots of overgrown weeds surrounded by slum dwellings and housing projects with a secret mobster boneyard right in the center of it all!! Amusement parks ought to create replicas of The Hole to really creep people out!! The antithesis of the Fun House and the Tunnel of Love!! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 But if anyone tries to gentrify The Hole like they have done to so much of NYC, I say we form a lynch mob and bury the bodies in that boneyard!! 😄😄😄😉

Not too long ago, the city put signs up preventing people from turning off on the Block after Linwood diner to avoid the traffic on Linden Boulevard going into the conduit because the folks at Howard Beach didn’t want the traffic going through their neighborhood. There are definitely more bodies out there, but for the police to get court ordered warrants to dig up over there at somebody’s business takes a lot of red tape as well as plenty of logistics, it’s just too much tax dollars just to find a few bodies or two

Great tour of Howard Beach! I’ve never actually been there when I lived in Queens, as I never had a reason to hang there. Interesting, but unless I had a truck like yours I’d probably avoid the flooded streets. Is there an actual beach there? Okay, so I had another idea for a “tour” if you think it’d make a good video. It’s Fort Totten in Bayside Queens. When I lived there it was strictly military and no civilians were allowed. Now I believe the state of NY owns it and it’s kind of a park with a visitor center. It dates way back to Civil War days, with tons of historical significance. Do some research and see you think.

I lived on 82 and 151 ave in the late 70’s as a kid. I was familiar with that area. It was less active back then, and was creepy and we avoided it. There used to be a lot of wooden structure homes that dated way back in time. the neighborhood is Lindenwood and was pretty much built in the early60’s. Further down there was a big field and across it was a garbage incinerator that stunk up the neighborhood. I think we went n there with bikes and got chased out by dogs....so never again. We used to cross into Brooklyn to go to McDonalds and TSS (Time Sq Stores) never ventured further than that . We used to call the Horse Ranch, The Dude Ranch. We used to sled down a hill on the outskirts of it. Interesting that bodies were dumped there since a lot of those guys made their home in HB. My family ended up moving to New England and it was years later that I understood why HB was a safe place to live .

Grew up there in the 70's as well. lived on 153rd Ave. The wooden structure homes at the edge of the neighborhood you mention , from what I recall they were on a dirt road and in a sunken area. It was an odd little area, entering it was like leaving NYC and winding up in a small southern town. Used to use that road as a shortcut to TSS. Pretty sure it has all been torn down, I'm just curious as to where it was and can't find it on a map. Living in LA now and feeling nostalgic.

ndogg20 I checked on the maps too. I also noticed the smokestack is gone . Not sure of the street names but unlike the neighborhood which had # streets, they were named. Haha. We didn’t cut through to TSS we took that last numbered street.

Luv those shady campers! Ps area really looks like NJ.

This is one great looking city! Looks like a hell hole.

That part is called city line.
