New York City | Roosevelt Island Tram | “Little Manila” | Woodside, Queens

Ever wondered what the view NYC would look like from 250 ft. in the air? Well, join us as we do just that! This week we take a ride on the Roosevelt Island Tram which connects Manhattan at 59th St. to an 800 ft. strip of land called Roosevelt Island. The 5 minute tram ride offers incredible views to and from Manhattan as you travel directly above the East River. Take a look at some of the links below for so interesting facts and history of the tram and Roosevelt Island.

We also take you on a trip to Roosevelt Ave. in Woodside located in the borough of Queens. This area of Woodside has a large Filipino influence and you can find all the restaurants and stores for all your Filipino needs. We took the time to eat and shop, enjoying all that Roosevelt Ave. has to offer. Thank you for joining us and please subscribe if you haven’t already and please leave us a comment! Mabuhay!
