Tenement History and Immigrant Life in the Lower East Side

Tenement History and Immigrant Life in the Lower East Side

Преглед

From the Five Points and Mulberry Bend, through the Italian and Jewish immigrant waves, and finally what is today's Chinatown, this tour explores the development of a rustic landscape of lakes and farms into what became the mostly densely overcrowded neighborhood on earth barely 100 years ago. The incremental step-by-step process of putting the need for adequate housing over the drive for profit to house the immigrant poor, from disease-ridden cellar dwelling in tumble down shanties. to pre-, old- and new-law tenements, this tour uses pictures to show what is no longer there, and finds what continues to stand in the street walls today to tell the immensely rich, tragic and redemptive story of New York's Lower East Side.

Шта да очекујете

Foley Square

We begin at the former sites of The Five Points neighborhood and Mulberry Bend, one-time notorious slums in New York City's history. The focus is on the "tenement," the early purpose-built housing for the working class, mostly immigrant poor whose history begins not far from this spot.

Columbus Park

Jacob Riis and his seminal work, How the Other Half Lives, helps bring to life the past communities that once occupied the site of today's Columbus Park, between Chinatown and the Court District.

Lower East Side

The heart of the tour is along the blocks of the Lower East Side and the non-stop tenement buildings that proliferated in the Lower East Side from the mid-19th to the early-20th Centuries. Not all tenements were associated with slum communities, though living conditions could be hard. We'll identify different tenements types from different eras, and witness the decades-long process of tenement evolution following advancing laws.

Manhattan Bridge

We will have a stunning view of the Municipal Building and the Woolworth Building East Broadway, one of Chinatowns most vibrant street scenes with hidden-in-plain-sight historic gems.

Museum At Eldridge Street

One of the most beautiful edifices in the city, The Eldridge Street Synagogue begins discussion of the Jewish experience in the Lower East Side, who, like the massive immigrant waves before them, have their own unique story to tell.

Tenement Museum

We pass the back of the museum where they replicate tenement life. Outhouses and clothes line help transport one back in time.

Williamsburg Bridge

DeLancey Street was the clothing discount outlet center of the past.

A wonderful and thoughtful tour including the history of the development of Manhattan. The tour focuses on the lower east side of Manhattan which is where 5-points and Chinatown originate. Truly worthwhile if you're a history person or you like learning cool stuff about urban development from a housing perspective. Five stars!

The tour was amazing. We learned so much in about 2.5 hours. Our tour guide is very well informed and we got a detailed account accompanied with photos. The time just flew by.

Our tickets printed from the website had 10 a.m. at one point and 1 p.m. at another. We saw 1 p.m. and didn't question it to look the ticket over to see a different time elsewhere. We showed up at the statue at 1 p.m. waited 20 minutes and no one showed. Then we scrutinized the tickets and saw two different times listed. Apparently 10 a.m. was correct and 1 p.m. was a misprint. We walked to the Tenement Museum, which we thought from your website, we had to take one of your tours to get in. When we showed them the tickets to see if we could still get in, they said the tour had nothing to do with them. I don't see any way I could search the Tenement Museum and end up on your website led to believe the only way we could visit it was to take one of your tours, without being intentionally mislead by you, just as we were mislead by your tickets. I feel scammed.

Why wouldn't you have contacted me sooner? Of course you can get a refund. Sorry about the two times printed on your ticket, there was a window of time when that was happening but it's been fixed. And as far as the Tenement Museum, people have made that mistake before and I've gone out of my way to make it clear that I am not associated with the museum (it's a wonderful museum, but I am different). The problem is with the Viator algorithm, this tour of tenement history shows up when you search Tenement Museum, that's because the Tenement Museum doesn't offer their own tours through the Viator platform but they are listed as a "site" on the platform and not a "tour". I've complained to Viator a number of times about this confusion for fear of this very thing. As you can see by my reviews, of course, this is not a scam and I'll gladly refund your money. So sorry about your experience.
