SUMMARY:Radical History Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:Organized by the Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space\nSATURDAYS & SUNDAYS\, 3:00-5:00PM | $25/person | No reservations needed!\nMeet @ The Museum of Reclaimed Urban Space – 155 Ave C\, 9th & 10th St\nTours need three people to run – and almost always do.\nMuseum of Reclaimed Urban Space organic historian Bill Weinberg reveals the stories behind squats\, gardens\, riots\, uprisings and more. From the Civil War Draft Riots of the 1860s — to the Young Lords\, Black Panthers\, hippies\, Yippies and Up Against the Wall Motherf*ckers of the 1960s — to the Tompkins Square anarchists of the ’80s — to the tree-hugging urban enviros of the ’90s to the neighborhood Earthies keeping the legacy alive today. Unlike other neighborhood tours\, we broaden beyond individual anecdotes to paint a strong historical\, academic\, and cultural big picture of the Lower East Side. \n\n\nFive things you will learn on the Lower East Side Radical History Tour that you probably didn’t know:\n1. The radical politics of the songwriter who penned the “Wizard of Oz” soundtrack.\n2. What building in the East Village links the Gershwin brothers\, the Black Panthers and Iggy Pop.\n3. What park in the East Village was the secret birthplace of both the Hare Krishna movement and Occupy Wall Street.\n4. How New York City’s recycling program began as an initiative of East Village community activists.\n5. Why the same area of the city has been variously known as Burnt Mill Point\, Drydock\, Little Germany\, Klein Deutschland\, the Lower East Side\, Loisaida\, the East Village and Alphabet City.

SUMMARY:Walking Tour: Building on the LES
DESCRIPTION:Organized by The Tenement Museum\nJoin a Museum educator as they guide you on an outdoor walking tour of the Lower East Side to reveal the unique stories that buildings can tell. Over the neighborhood’s history\, many different communities have lived\, worked and played here––and just as many communities have had ideas about what the neighborhood’s buildings should look like. On this tour\, explore the changes in buildings before\, during and after the era of tenements\, and how the Lower East Side’s architecture mirrors debates across the city and country. \nAmong others\, stops on this tour include: \n\nThe 1950s utopian\, Modernist Seward Park Housing Cooperative\, an experiment in co-owned housing\nAn 1830s row house\, one of the oldest structures in the neighborhood\nAngel Orensanz Center\, a 19th Century synagogue repurposed as an art and performance space\n\nTicket Link: https://www.tenement.org/tour/w2-building-on-the-les/?tour_date=2026-05-02

SUMMARY:Walking Tour: Foods of the LES
DESCRIPTION:Organized by The Tenement Museum\nGet a taste of tenement history! Explore over 150 years of Lower East Side history through the stories of immigrant and migrant communities and the unique food cultures that defined life in the neighborhood. Together with a Museum Educator\, examine ways in which tenement residents both preserved and adapted the food traditions of their homelands\, and how generations of street vendors\, restaurateurs\, home cooks\, and grocers sustained communities while shaping wider ideas of American cuisine and identity. \nVisit 8 unique stops and try small tastings from local Lower East Side vendors! Tastings include: \n\nCafe Katja (pretzels & beer)\nPickle Guys (new pickle\, garlic stuffed olive\, pickled pineapple)\nEssex Olive and Spice (olive oils & balsamic vinaigrettes)\nLower East Side Ice Cream Factory (ice cream)\n\nAlongside tastings\, tour a modern public market with a surprisingly deep history in the neighborhood and learn about everything from Kleindeutschland\, NYC’s first non-English speaking community\, to how public schools in the Lower East Side became the front line in the battle to “Americanize” immigrant cuisine. \n*Currently\, discounts are only available to Museum members. \nTicket Link: https://www.tenement.org/tour/f1-foods-of-the-les/?tour_date=2026-05-01
