Exploring an Abandoned New York Neighborhood **WHY THEY LEFT**

Pyramid corporation… Nah that doesn’t sound sketchy..

U should've interviewed the mailman. They drive around those blocks everyday, I'm sure they know what happened there

Dismantling the American dream

That tornado alarm plus the abandoned city gives me post apocalyptic vibes. I could imagine a hoard of zombies wandering the town being the former residents

I did some digging when I was there. It was a family of 7. I haven't found why they left everything, but I did find 2 family member that still live in the area. I would contact them but they obviously left because they wanted to forget.

Yo im literally the one who put that couch in the basement lol 😂 thats so cool to see in someone else's video

Every time that loud alarm went off all I could think of was Silent Hill lol

Not a tornado alarm, it’s a fire house alarm. Either for fire or rescue/ambulance.

That is an air raid siren. When I lived in New Jersey a lot of the small towns would use them when the fire department had to get out on the road. After World War II they had all these air raids sirens left over and they didn't know what to do with them so they gave them to the fire departments. And they would use them to sign everything from a disaster to they are fixing to roll on a fire. And that way it would let people know to get off the roadways for a minute so they could get through and get to the fire as quickly as possible. Actually pretty damn good idea and my town still uses them!

No kidding! I just found your channel recently and quickly became interested in the content. Just this morning I wondered how many similar buyout situations have happened near me in Troy/Albany NY and then this video shows up, perfect timing I’d never heard about this. How recently this was filmed? Also the siren you heard is used by volunteer fire departments to alert members of an incoming call, pretty common for non-paid fire services. And you’re correct the air raid sirens used are the same type used for tornados or even old repurposed missile/nuclear warning sirens during war times

Pyramid is a real estate company based out of Syracuse focuses on Massachusetts and New York, they also own 13 malls INCLUDING cross gates. Love upstate

That's insane one of the homeowners worked for pyramid. What are the odds...😮

It's not odd that people leave all their stuff, people get paid 5 × what their property is worth from COSTCO and just leave everything because they can buy more.

Tornados actually occur in all 50 states. When properties are bought up like this, they are paid so much, that they just leave it all behind and start fresh.

I feel bad for the person living along with all the abandoned houses since it got bought out. Also the vulture may have been out because of the dead animals or if it found a body (that would explain the sirens)

That alarm...You guys almost got stuck in Silent Hill

Okay but so did anyone else notice that the dead body notebook has today's date (5/21) written in the top corner 🫣🫣

stringer media thanks forsharing with me this video it was a reall cool video i really enjoyed it and God Bless.

I live in Albany New York and have to have been to Crossgates Mall over 500 times (at least) I remember when they announced the plan to develop the area into a Costco or something like that and it was a big controversy for them to buy all the houses and properties. I completely forgot about all of this until you posted this. My brother and I started watching urban exploration videos a couple months ago, and to find out we have a place so close to home, we’re definitely going to check this place out.

Man you guys are crazy for going inside these places, i don't have the balls & getting too old for it so i'm glad i can watch you guys explore these joints for me. Salute my G stay safe.
