behind me is 9 Jay Street in Tribeca it's a quintessential loft building complete
with its own sky bridge this apartment here is located in the most expensive
neighborhood in New York City where the median sale price for a home is a
staggering three point eight five million dollars and nine Jay Street here
right behind me is on the market for thirty-five million dollars a portion of
this video is sponsored by vert desk even if you don't have millions of
dollars to call this neighborhood home there are still tons of fun and exciting
things to do while visiting in this video I'm gonna take you on a tour of
one of the most dynamic and expensive neighborhoods in New York City the
triangle below Canal Street also known as Tribeca is a popular area known for
its old industrial buildings and cobblestone streets that are lined with
trendy boutiques and restaurants the weekends are quiet and the Tribeca Film
Festival takes place here every spring it's a neighborhood almost as glitzy as
Soho and it's home to more celebrities artists and entrepreneurs per capita
than any neighborhood in the entire city if you're already subscribed this is a
brand new series and will be touring the best neighborhoods in New York City and
future episodes so make sure to click that subscribe button and what would
this neighborhood tour be without showing you a typical Tribeca apartment
you know the outside of all those beautiful lofts in Soho and Tribeca well
this is what a classic Tribeca loft looks like from the inside this unit is
a warehouse space converted into a massive luxury penthouse it's a bit of
old meets new with these high-end finishes here in the kitchen along with
this original exposed piping all in the same room now what makes these lofts so
attractive is this massive open floor plan and the fact that the space still
holds onto the original features such as these original exposed wood beams in the
large freight elevator doors which combined create a classical yet modern
functional space loft living does not come cheap this apartment recently sold
for just under 11 million dollars like who do you think
this buyer it's actually funny because I post an L my Instagram story yeah and
everyone's like oh my god that's Taylor Swift's apartment she doesn't live that
far from here someone from the West Coast who just
wants a New York pad that feels like New York they love this place back even just
thirty years ago no one would buy because this is 11 million dollars right
now this apartment the war blocks okay four blocks that way into Soho like a
sixteen and if you want to see a full tour of this Tribeca loft check out the
link down below in the description so you just left your eleven million dollar
Tribeca loft first things first is breakfast you can't go wrong with
getting breakfast and coffee at two hands two hands is a classic Australian
Cafe named after a Heath Ledger film it has a super laid-back interior and two
hands brings the care and craft of the melbourne coffee scene right to Tribeca
serving up a bowl cup of joe combined it with delicious meals
now most coffee shops in New York they don't do too much with food but at two
hands there's this whole robust coffee culture and dynamic kitchen culture all
under the same roof I recommend it starting off with the banana and walnut
bread topped off with whipped espresso with toasted buckwheat and honey on the
smashed avocado on sourdough with some poached eggs lemon juice and pickle
chili is a classic and for the sweet tooth go with the ricotta hot cake this
thing's massive definitely for two or three people it's
topped off with blackberries strawberries and honey pecans like any
place that is good in New York City you gotta get here early this place forms
look fast and usually there's a 10 to 20 minute long wait after one of the best
breakfasts of your life my next recommendation is to head it to the
Hudson River Park and enjoy the best views that the city has to offer
basically any outdoor activity that you can imagine you can do on the Hudson
River Park they have mini golf basketball courts a skate park even a
beach sand volleyball court Hudson River Park is 550 acres running the entire
length of the island of Manhattan but I would argue that the best views are
found here in the Tribeca section right behind me you have all the
of lower Manhattan you can see the One World Trade Center financial district
you can even see the Statue of Liberty off there in the distance then looking
over North you can see the Empire State Building and the newly developed Hudson
Yards pier 34 is definitely the best place in Tribeca to get a full view of
the neighborhood you can see right along the river there's all the new
developments then you make your way inward you can see all those old loft
buildings my recommendation give yourself three
four or five even six hours make a day out of it
grab a Citi bike and just enjoy the best that Tribeca has to offer now for lunch
I recommend going to the Odeon it's a French American bistro with incredible
food outdoor seating the best thing about this place is you can dine right
on the street be fully immersed in the neighborhood for lunch today I got the
chicken salad sandwich we also have here some mac and cheese with this crusts on
it that is perfectly I want to say it's burnt just it's nice and crispy special
today which is French onion soup my tip is to get here early as you can see
behind me all the tables are pretty much empty grab the table right on the corner
and soak in the best of Tribeca as you're having amazing food and of course
Tribeca is home to three six eight Broadway where my good friend Sam
Sheppard works from my name is Sam Scheffer I'm a youtuber and I work right
