Uncover the history of one of New York City’s oldest and most culturally diverse neighborhoods! This walking tour explores how both everyday buildings and places of historical significance reflect and shape a community. Together, trace the transformation of the area from its origins as the Native American Lenape village of Werpoes Hill to the vibrant Chinatown it is today. Highlighted sites include the oldest streets in Chinatown, a bustling neighborhood park and a Catholic church with layered histories, Chinatown’s oldest general store, and a Chinese eatery that catered to the needs of Chinatown’s turn-of-the-century “bachelor society." Walking tours leave promptly from the main lobby at 215 Centre Street, NY, NY 10013. They are best for children ages 12 and up. Tickets include admission to the museum before and/or after your tour. Tickets: $25/adult, $20/adult 55 & up, $20/student (with valid ID), free for children under 5. MyMOCA Members receive one free walking tour per year. After that, tickets may be purchased at a rate of $15/member. Advanced RSVP required. Day of tickets may be available, pending availability.
