2023 is the year I walked and photographed every neighborhood in all five boroughs of New York City.
I didn’t plan it that way when I embarked on my first photoshoot on January 15, 2023. It wasn’t on my mind when I completed my initial tours of Brooklyn and Queens in April. It really didn’t become a realistic possibility until I finished touring the Bronx and prepared to explore Staten Island at the end of July. By the time of my last photoshoot on November 19, 2023, I had walked over 480 miles, taken over 61,000 photos, and visited 381 neighborhoods.
This video is a snapshot of the rich tapestry that is New York City - one of the most diverse cities on the planet. Indeed, you can travel around the world in NYC.
This was an epic journey.
This was unprecedented.
This was NYC in 2023.

On January 28, I set out to traverse the neighborhoods of western Brooklyn. I walked 14.4 miles, covering the neighborhoods of: Bedford-Stuyvesant, Carroll Gardens, Columbia Street Waterfront District, Fort Greene, Gowanus, Green-Wood Cemetery, Greenwood Heights, Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Red Hook, South Slope, Sunset Park; and Richmond Hill East, Queens.
On a chilly winter day, I decided to walk through the central environs of the Williamsburg neighborhood in North Brooklyn. The angle of the winter sun framed the day with dramatic light and shadows. This section of Williamburg is primarily residential - although, as you will see, the major avenues are a lively hub of commerce.

The last photo shoot of 2022 came on October 30, a day before Halloween. The say was spent walking Atlantic Avenue from Jamaica, Queens to Brooklyn Heights, Brooklyn. Enjoy the beauty of a Gossamer Summer day through Brooklyn and Queens.

Gossamer Summer refers to those wonderfully temperate days that mark the end of Summer and the beginning of Autumn. This video captures a series of small photo shoots during Gossamer Summer in 2022, in Manhattan and Queens.
Happy Halloween!
New York City has a darker side. An ominous side. And here, just in time for Samhain, the season of Halloween, is a special project: NYC Gothic - a collection of spooky photos taken from across all five boroughs of New York City.
At long last, CityNeighborhoods.NYC is proud to share our page for the Manhattan Neighborhood of Marble Hill!
This neighborhood is special - while being part of the borough of Manhattan, it is not on the island of Manhattan. Instead, it is on the mainland, and is often mistaken as being part of The Bronx.
Check it out!
