See the history and hear the stories of the many lives and transformations of this beautiful Manhattan neighborhood.About this Event
We will spend two hours exploring the historic neighborhood of Turtle Bay. From the site of the original bay and why it was named for Turtles, we will see how the area transitioned from bucolic Loyalist farms to a smelly industrial center to a gentrified swanky home of celebrities to the international center it is today.
The tour covers about 1.7 miles of walking and covers an area from East 47th Street to East 54th Street between the East River and Third Avenue. I will point out a variety of celebrity homes, street murals, and historic sites.
