Обзор
Delve into off-the-beaten-path New York history on the Hell Gate walking tour.

Hell Gate is the one-mile stretch of the East River between Manhattan and Queens where countless ships were sunk or destroyed by the terrifying rocks, reefs, and whirlpools. Discover the islands in and around Hell Gate—Wards, Roosevelt, Rikers, North & South Brother—as seen from Randall’s Island (accessible on foot, by car, or by bicycle via the RFK Bridge—from East Harlem, Astoria, and Port Morris—or the Wards Island Bridge/103rd Street Footbridge from Manhattan).

Main features:

Find out about Hell Gate’s ship-swallowing whirlpools.

Learn about the plot to blow up the Hell Gate Bridge.

Discover the river pirates of the Hell Gate islands.

Hear about the Hell Gate Explosions and the General Slocum Disaster.

Peer at the jail complex of Rikers Island and the quarantine ruins of North Brother Island.

I took the Hell Gate tour and the Psychiatric History of New York tour, both guided by K. Krombie, the BEST, FANTASTIC storyteller with amazing depth and breadth of knowledge based on her thorough research/investigations of the relevant history. Through her tours, I, a NYC resident, was totally mesmerized afresh by the richness of the city’s history behind both familiar and unfamiliar landscapes, buildings, architectural structures, murals, etc., including those which no longer exist or were buried under the ground. I highly recommend K. Krombie’s guided tours to anybody, NYC residents and tourists alike, who are drawn to the curious and unique history of NYC. I am looking forward to taking her Death in New York tour next.

Krombie gave a comprehensive 2 hour tour of Randalls and Wards Islands and the Hell Gate strait with unflagging enthusiasm on one of the hottest days of the year.! While her tour was clearly thoroughly researched,, her tone was never once pedantic and we were rapt the entire time. Krombie is a treasure! I highly recommend any of her tours, but this one is particularly magical.

The tour was fascinating, informative, and highly entertaining. Amazing amount of history, humor, and intrigue told in that really kept my attention. Lots of information on the many NYC urban myths that are actual real events I have heard over the 30 years I have lived in New York City. Highly recommended.
