An introduction to the immigrant live when they arrived in this country. Historical facts and understanding the transformation the neighborhood has gone through.The Lower East Side is the neighborhood that has been the melting pot for immigrants for generations. Immigrants from Italians, Jews, Germans, Latinos, and Asian have made this area home. As one immigrant group left another wave of immigrants came in. Once the most densely populated place on the planet it has been gentrified. Today a desired neighborhood with luxury condos. You can still find old tenements, mom and pop shops amongst hip designer boutiques and restaurants. The face of the Lower East Side has changed but come hear the tales of how immigrants struggled with it's rich history and cultural diversity.

We will walk and talk and eat in one of the oldest areas in NYC. Come see it before gentrification takes over.
