Lower East Side and Tenement Museum

Step back in time and appreciate the resilience of immigrant women through interactive apartment tours. Observe how multiple generations from Puerto Rico, Europe and China balanced work, family life and culture in cramped quarters. Appreciate how these 19th C. buildings housed over 7,000 people for more than 100 years, among them these women who survived hardships and asserted their rights as citizens, inspiring generations of Americans to come. Lunch on your own between tours.
