Description
Curious about how and why Manhattan is built up the way it is? Looking for a fun, alternative daytime activity to do during your visit? A departure from your average sightseeing tour, you'll be receiving the 'locals-only treatment' that won't disappoint. Using curated sites on the streets as our canvas, this 2.5 hour walking tour explores the Big Apple’s built landscape through world-class architecture, fascinating urban planning, and fun facts about the city's early days along the way. You'll also learn about the history and details of structures that are overlooked in everyday life, and how buildings and public spaces have informed each other from the late 19th century until today. David tours guests through either the Chelsea/Meatpacking, the Lower East Side/SoHo area, or the Financial District (not including World Trade Center). Each stop along the tour's route will discuss a different theme of planning and architecture that will build upon each other until the conclusion of the tour. Each route covers the same topics.Includes
Guests will have the opportunity to walk indoors to stop for a snack/beverage along the way, and there will be plenty of opportunities to use the restroom.
