If landscape is history, as Henry James suggested, then housing is the history of New York. This fascinating and comprehensive architectural tour explores the overcrowded neighborhoods and housing on the Lower East Side, from the Federal era to the pre-housing legislation of 1867, from the edge of Chinatown to Corlears Hook.
An experienced guide from the Lower East Side Jewish Conservancy, a nonprofit Jewish educational organization, leads these tours. Meet at 235 East Broadway, between Clinton and Montgomery streets. Please wear comfortable shoes. Subway: F train to East Broadway.
