Walking NYC : Morris Park, Bronx
I walk through the neighborhood of Morris Park, Bronx. I start off at the Morris Park subway station, and make my way towards Morris Park Avenue via Colden Avenue. When I get to Williamsbridge Avenue, I walk north until Neill Avenue.
From Wikipedia:
"Morris Park is a neighborhood in the New York City borough of the Bronx. Its approximate boundaries, starting from the north and moving clockwise, are Neill Avenue and Pelham Parkway to the north, Eastchester Road to the East, the Amtrak Northeast Corridor tracks and Sackett Avenue to the east and south, and Bronxdale Avenue or White Plains Road to the west. It borders the neighborhoods of Van Nest to its southwest and Pelham Parkway to its northeast. Williamsbridge Road and Morris Park Avenue are the primary thoroughfares.
The neighborhood is part of Bronx Community District 11 in the East Bronx, and its ZIP Codes include 10461 and 10462. The area is patrolled by the 49th Precinct of the New York City Police Department, located at 2121 Eastchester Road. The local subway is the IRT Dyre Avenue Line (5 train), which runs under the Esplanade. The neighborhood has a large Albanian American and Italian American population."

That urgent care across from Emilio's used to be my families shoe store for generations (Nava Shoes, 1049 Morris Park Ave) which we closed in the mid nineties after over 50 years of business. Lot of memories there.

It is a very nice area! I try to do a little bit of reading before I walk an area to learn about it
Nice video bro. I’m 53 years old. I have spent several years passing through Morris Park. I used to work in Jacobi Medical Center from ‘94 through’01. Then I’m joined the NYPD. Ended up working my entire 20 year career in the 49th pct. Meet some really good people in that community. New subscriber here. God bless you.
This is my favourite channel. I especially like it when you explain everything so nicely. I wish you a lot of success with the channel and happy life.
Colourful station. I like that. Nice quiet area and houses. Beautiful mural. Your video's are very addictive. You are a part of my daily routine.
Thank you for coming to Morris Park you went right passed my building I like it here moved here a year ago
I hope that you stopped off at Sorrento's for some pizza. My old neighborhood. It's nice to see that it has not changed too much. I do miss it. You brought a few tears to my eyes and a warm feeling in my heart to see it again. Thank you for sharing.
Morris Park great neighborhood in the Bronx
I lived in Morris Park for 2 years and I absolutely love it as much as Queens, where I'm from. So beautiful there!! Great video, thank you!

Ken, I really enjoyed the walk of Morris Park, thank you!
Morris name in Morrisania section of South Bronx near St. Mary’s Park ( designed by Olmsted just like Central Park) is named for patriot Robert Morris (signer of Declaration of Independence) and his descendants. Much history there.
I used to live here before I moved to Florida. I loved the neighborhood. But the other side I’m guessing by the 2 train. Well, Morris park avenue and Barnes avenue
Thinking of moving to Pelham Bay or Morris Park so I SO appreciate these videos. Great job!
You guys are lucky to have Dunkin over there! They haven’t any in Washington state here for 20+ years and i tried them before they left, and LOVED em. We do have a krispy Kreme though which is almost as good. :)
Great video!!!! Bring back childhood memories. Nice Job.
Yup you were in both of my old neighborhoods were I used to live 9 years ago. Morris Park and Pelham Parkway South. I can't believe they painted that stairwell those colors! 😳 If you would have walked to the bottom of that colorful stairwell and than straight ahead you would have walked direct to the Bronx Zoo
That was a wonderful walk through Morris Park, Bronx!
Great informative video as always AK!! I have never even heard of Morris Park and I have lived in New York City for over 20 years now as you know. Thank you for bringing this cool area of The Bronx to the flat screen TV in my living room. Cheers bro stay safe out there!

You walked right pass my house! Colden/Morris Park Ave and Williamsbridge outline the old Morris Park Racetrack. The lower edge of the track is at Bronxdale/East Tremont Ave, by the ConEd facility. The old train station that went to the track was the rear of their parking lot. The northern edge was Pelham Parkway. The horses were led into the track at Pelham Pkway and Williamsbridge after a long walk from Throgs Neck. The stables were at the north end of the track. It used to be the largest track in America with stables for over 1000 horses. The NYPL has a bunch of pics of the track around 1890-1910.
Nice video , good ride !
Youse finally made it? To the part of the Bronx ? I was born in Morris Park Pelham Parkway areas . Although it's been decades since I was there so your walk through the area was a refreshing visit to see the old area. Thanks a million AK. Oh ! Those poles painted in the Italian flag colors ? Is ?? I'm willing to bet? To let people know they are in the Italian neighborhood of the Bronx. ... Careful though youse might run into Frankie ... Tony and maybe ? Carmine ... A few wise guys .... Oh Oops I meant a few nice guy's ... Anyway thanks for bringing us with you? On your stroll in the Morris Park area. Ciao
If you had gone to your right instead of your left when leaving the train station, you would have been approximately 2 blocks from MPA.
Great video! The movie “True Love” (1989) brought me here. I really like your accent and it is the same as the accents in the movie. Apparently the director Nancy Savoca grew up in Morris Park neighbourhood
Amazing video 👍👍👍👍

These mundane places are still nevertheless worth seeing.People world over too often think anyone crazy for wanting to look around-if not a threat. Now I want to find out the background to those connecting arches and in particular if they are efficient in reinforcing the connected units.The houses with steps up would be valued highly where I am.These increase security and this was realized when a police station was built at Brighton on the south coast of England, which was expected to be at risk of being stormed some time by anarchic day- trippers such as in the past by the famous mods and rockers- upset that their freinds were being kept there.The commercial areas of this part of the city are very like London (UK) suburbs and as such would be valued there to dwell in.Thanks for this item i'll keep it in likes and other storage for as long as seems possible.
