Around Manhattan Boat Tour

Explore New York City’s changing waterfront on this sunset cruise, presented in partnership with Turnstile Tours.

Explore New York City’s changing waterfront on this sunset cruise. From the city’s earliest days, the rivers surrounding Manhattan and leading to the New York Harbor have been the lifeblood of commerce. Waterfront land use has undergone a striking evolution over the last two centuries, from the piers and warehouses of the industrial era to modern mixed-use districts with residential towers and sites for recreation. Remnants of the city’s past and outlines of its future can be seen—if you know where to look.

Andrew Gustafson of Turnstile Tours will lead a tour circumnavigating Manhattan, highlighting the waterfront neighborhoods along the Hudson, Harlem, and East Rivers, and revealing many of their fascinating stories.

Organized by Open House New York.
