Don’t miss this upcoming 2024 Local Event in New York, NY. Happening on Sunday, September 22, 2024 at East 33rd Street. Doors open at 11:00 AM.

Join our jaunt to the Gilded Age, when a rollicking Manhattan entertainment zone centered around 23rd Street, with Tin Pan Alley nearby.

This walk will feature Gilded Age era hotels, restaurants, and sites like that of the Haymarket dance hall on West 30th Street, which was captured by John Sloan in a 1907 painting. Two blocks south, Tin Pan Alley is the birthplace of popular music, where sheet music was turned out for shows, concerts and entertainment venues around the world.

Victorian manners and mores will be explored in the context of the public and private spaces which offered amusements, high and low. We will see former gambling spots in “Satan’s Circus” and a surviving section of a luncheonette’s terra cotta seahorse frieze hiding in plain sight. Learn about the variety of architectural styles represented along the way, as well as about watershed events that influenced the form and function of this intriguing section of New York City.

Join us after the tour for lunch in the Tenderloin, if you like.
