SUMMARY:New York Historic Center (in English)
DESCRIPTION:\n10% of all profits go to support Ukrainian Armed Forces\n\n\n\nNew York does not have one center. Instead it has several! Commercial, Financial, Theatre, Visual Art, Fashion districts of New York are all mostly distinct and separate from each other. But did you know Manhattan has a historic center? \n\n\n\nI define the part of Manhattan roughly corresponding to South Midtown as New York Historic Center. It goes from Madison Square and Flatiron district to Union Square and 14th street. This is where life was at full swing in 1870-90s. Let me show you the architecture and life in New York as it was after the Civil War and before the skyscraper boom. The route includes the Flatiron building, part of Broadway that used to be called Ladies’ Mile, house museum of Theodore Roosevelt, the last private park in New York – at Gramercy and much more. I will tell the stories of unique buildings populating this historic area, the very center of New York just 100-120 years ago.\n\n\n\n\n	\n		\n			\n		\n	\n		\n			\n\n\n		\n			\n			Appellate courthoues\n				New York State Appellate Courthouse together with the old Metlife building\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Appellate courthoues\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Grand Madison\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Grand Madison\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Metlife\n				The shorter building on the left was supposed to be the highest in the world in 1920s\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Metlife\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Flatiron building front view\n				Flatiron and the clock that stood next to the old Fifth ave hotel\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Flatiron building front view\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Ladies’ Mile\n				Old shopping district called Ladies’ Mile\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Ladies’ Mile\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			George Washington\n				The oldest sculpture in New York\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	George Washington\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Gandhi\n				Most recent permanent sculpture in Union Square – Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Gandhi\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			New York Life Insurance\n				This is were 2 of the original Madison Square Gardens stood\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	New York Life Insurance\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Me near Gramercy Park\n				One of my favorite stops on this tour is Gramercy Park\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Me near Gramercy Park\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Me showing pics\n				I use my laptop to show photos and pictures during my tours\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Me showing pics\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Me with Washington\n				Union Square is the end of New York Historic Center tour\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Me with Washington\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Slava and Pete’s Tavern\n				One of the oldest bars in New York\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Slava and Pete’s Tavern\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n		\n			\n			Me on Broadway\n				Explaining the importance of Ladies’ Mile as a phenomenon\n		\n						\n				\n\n	\n			\n	\n		\n			\n\n	\n		\n				\n	\n\n	Me on Broadway\n		\n	\n			\n					\n		\n\n\n\n	\n\n	\n\n\n\n	\n\n	\n\n\n		\n		\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n    var historicCenterEnCallback = function() {\n        console.log('Order complete!');\n    };\n\n    window.EBWidgets.createWidget({\n        // Required\n        widgetType: 'checkout',\n        eventId: '321528720057',\n        iframeContainerId: 'eventbrite-widget-container-321528720057',\n\n        // Optional\n        iframeContainerHeight: 425,  // Widget height in pixels.

I have never appreciated history before I moved to New York in 2010. Maybe it was an immigrant thing – to study up on the new city and country – but it quickly fascinated me. Now 4 shelves of USA and New York history books and 10 years guiding experience behind me I more than ever want to share the stories I learned.\n\n\n\nAny questions or comments?Ask me anything!CONTACT
