This is a shorter (and larger resolution) version of a tour we’ve previously released on Chelsea Market in New York City. Chef Mark Tafoya acts as a guide walking through this wonderful market located at 9th Avenue and 15th Street in New York City.
We’d all love for things to stay the same in this life. Unfortunately they rarely do, especially on the web. That can be a good thing though.
I’m announcing via the blog, and soon via the podcasts, that I’m going to let The New York Minute Show go dormant while I focus on another project. The site will stay as is. I will still moderate comments and leave all files and feeds available as usual. There just won’t be any new content.
The good news is that the mission continues. I’ve decided to heed the same advice that I give to many others and focus. Lucky for you the focus will continue to be on New York City.
My mission is a simple one. Transfer my knowledge and passion for the city over to you. The new destination I’ve been working on is over at http://www.newyorkismykindoftown.com. I’m not finished with the branding yet but the guts of the site is in place. Please have a look and let me know if you find it useful.
Join me on a walking tour of the Chelsea area in New York City. I walk from 8th Avenue and 14th Street to 8th Avenue and 33rd Street.

This video was actually shot in 2004. I have shown a small clip of it previously but now technology has allowed me to pull the full seven minutes together into a reasonably sized file.
What you are looking at is the Macy’s Fireworks Spectacular on July 4th, 2004. This video was shot from a bridge in Greenpoint, Brooklyn looking out towards the East River. I love the fact that you can hear all the explosions. Enjoy!
