The Bowery Boys’ Adventures in Old New York Book Talk SOLD OUT

As new skyscrapers shoot up throughout the city, there are still countless nooks and crannies that hide the ghosts of New York’s past. For those that know where to find them, these physical remnants of old New York lurk everywhere from the High Line to upper Manhattan’s craggy cliffs. Greg Young and Tom Meyers, the historians behind the wildly successful Bowery Boys podcast, explore these places in their first-ever book, Adventures in Old New York: An unconventional exploration of Manhattan’s historic neighborhoods, secret spots, and colorful characters. With curator Donald Albrecht as moderator, learn secrets about places you’ve never been and places you’ve always known through tales from the city’s past as a Dutch colony, Gilded Age metropolis, and Prohibition-era mafia war zone.
