Overview
New York’s Lower East Side is a neighborhood that transformed America. For over two centuries it has been home to waves of newly-arrived immigrants, creating a cauldron of cultures and innovation. But the historic district is quickly disappearing. In fact, the National Trust of Historic Preservation named the Lower East Side one of the most endangered places in the nation.
On this walking tour, we’ll explore the streets of the Lower East Side, uncovering remnants of its past hidden in plain sight. Through seeing history up close, you’ll learn how the immigrants lived, worked and worshipped. You’ll hear tales of the neighborhood’s colorful denizens and discover how its cultures and conflicts shaped modern America.
