Details

Event Type Historic Site Tour/History Description Together we will walk the banks of the Hudson from Battery Park City to the Chelsea Piers. Along the way we will explore the history of the Manhattan waterfront - its rise, decline, and rebirth. We will trace the ongoing evolution of the Hudson shoreline from a gritty line of working docks into a desirable residential enclave and a chain of inviting parks. Along the way special attention will be paid to notable buildings both historical and contemporary, to key transportation infrastructure, and to seminal historic events and personalities that shaped New York’s dynamic relationship with the river that is its raison d’être. The tour will begin at the western end of the Tribeca Bridge across West Street at Chambers Street. We will walk north for about 1.5 miles to 14th Street, pausing along the way to explore piers and buildings. Organization Hosting the Event William Hennessey Phone Number (757) 738-2090
