What you'll do
Enjoy a walking tour of the Bowery Official Historic District with The New York Pass®
This road has played a central role in the development of the city, all of which your expert guide will tell you about on your tour of the area. Originally a Native American footpath and Dutch farm road, the Bowery encapsulates Manhattan's rich history.
You'll march down the same triumphal route that Washington made during the British evacuation and listen to juicy tales of gang wars and riots. You'll stroll down to the Cooper Union, where Lincoln made the anti-slavery speech that propelled him to presidency, and see how the Bowery became the main street for sailors, gangs, sportsmen and waves of immigrants from all over the world.
What's included
Guided tour of New York City's oldest street.
