The Bowery Official Historic District Tour

Преглед

Join us on a journey through over four centuries as we walk down NYC’s oldest street! Originally a Native American footpath and Dutch farm road, site of the first free Black homesteads, it witnessed gang wars, the bloody Astor Place Riot, & Lincoln’s famous anti-slavery speech at Cooper Union. It was the working-class main street for sailors, shopgirls, gangs, gays, and waves of immigrant Irish, Italians, Germans, Jews, and Chinese. NYC’s first entertainment district, it has seminal links to tap dance, vaudeville, Yiddish theater, Houdini, Stephen Foster, Irving Berlin, Mae West, modern tattooing, Abstract Expressionism, Beat literature, improvisational jazz and punk rock. Though it declined in the 1900s, when flop houses and dive bars proliferated, it nonetheless became home to affordable jewelry, lighting, and restaurant supply stores, and a live-work home for artists like Marc Rothko, Maya Lin, William Burroughs, Robert Frank, and Debbie Harry.

Ramona was an excellent guide. Knowledgeable, interesting, accommodating. It was only me on the tour in the end (it was very cold). She answered all my question and I had a lovely afternoon.

Ramona was a great tour guide for the Bowery Tour (tommysnewyork) She dressed in period clothes for the tour which was fun. What impressed me most was Ramona's absolute enthusiasm when speaking about the area. She is well spoken & obviously knows her history. It was a pleasure to learn so much from someone who has a joy speaking about it. Great job Ramona!
