September NYC Events + NYC on YouTube (09/15)

Pre Covid-19 we searched the internet everyday looking for the very best of What’s Happening, primarily on Manhattan’s WestSide, so that you didn’t have to.”
We made it as easy as 1-2-3.

Covid-19 has required some changes for the time being.
Stay Safe.

============================================================

For September we are going to try a different format – “Top 10 Corona Culture” – updated info and video especially suited to these difficult times or NYC related visual info (Instagram and YouTube) or all the NYC news you need to start your day.

We hope you will come back often to see what’s cooking here.
Today it’s NYC on YouTube.

There are some very fine NYC YouTube videos, it’s tough to pick just a few.
Here are some of my faves:

Treasures of New York: American Museum of Natural History

Lower Manhattan – Did you know?

New York City is a city of neighborhoods and no neighborhood has more spectacular sights, nor more important links to American history then Lower Manhattan.

The Gotham Center for New York City History, a research and public education institution, publishes “Gotham” a blog that is endlessly fascinating for scholars (and non-scholars alike) of New York City history. I am most interested in those essays that cover Lower Manhattan. Here are three more that I find especially compelling (j):

The Gateway to the Nation: The New York Custom House — The Gotham Center for New York City History

The Remarkable Life of Teuntje Straetmans, a Woman in New Amsterdam — The Gotham Center for New York City History

The Upper Barracks: Military Geography in the Heart of New York — The Gotham Center for New York City History

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Now, how about some other useful information during these trying times.
