New York City Walks, Shopping
From the Square walk north along New York
City's heart of sophisticated glitter, Fifth
Avenue. The breezes in the Ginkgo Trees
whisper permission to absorb the Fifth
Avenue luxury and shop, Fifteen blocks of
glamorous boutiques will quell that simmering
passion for acquisition. Bric-a-brac, or
bauble, Armani or Matsuda, tidbit or treasure.
Teddy Roosevelt was a fellow walker. He,
the original Teddy Bear, charged up San
Juan Hill leading his troops and later led
visiting dignitaries on walking tours of DC. In
every walker's heart as a preserver of the
natural places, our 26th President, winner of
a Nobel Peace Prize, was born on East 20th
Street and our walk passes the museum that
was his house.

Start the Boutique Tour in lower midtown
with a walk through Washington Square in
the heart of Greenwich Village. In the 60s,
flattop acoustic tunes about Bleeker Street
rallied Bohemian artists and poets, street
singers and protesters to the arch and
fountain. High rents have chased the
poets to SoHo and East Village but their
children occasionally prowl the park in
hippie tie-dye.

The fourth tour, The River Walk starts on Wall Street at The Federal Hall National Monument
where George Washington took the oath of office as our first President. Most visitors spend
a quiet moment at the huge black fenced area contemplating the hole in the heart of the city
where once stood the spires of the World Trade Center. The Deli beside the site will always
be a memorable stop because it stayed open during the rescue and cleanup, keeping the
coffee flowing for the firefighters who searched for their brethren after the tragedy.
Cross-town to the east, the old Fulton Fish Market, reborn as a shopping district, borders the
river walk beneath the Brooklyn Bridge. To walk the longest suspension bridge in the world
at its opening in 1883 and the first to light its roadway with electricity, start 9 blocks west of
the Riverwalk at the 1811 French Renaissance/Georgian style City Hall.
South on the Riverwalk, the antique, square-rigged tall ships, tug boat, and cargo vessels of
the Seaport Museum make this an historic and exciting area. Walk south to the Museum of
Jewish Heritage, the New York City Police Museum, The National Museum of the American
Indian, or the Fraunces Tavern museum, and to the Battery Park and the boat for the Ellis
Island Immigration Museum.
Between 1892 and 1938 twelve million immigrants passed through the museums portal to
freedom in America. You will need two to three hours to explore the processing center where
you can examine the ship's records for names of your immigrant ancestors. From Battery
Park, tours run to the Hudson River for views of the Statue of Liberty.
Fly high during a two-hour trapeze lesson at Trapeze School New York, located in Hudson
River Park, where you fly through the air and into the hands of a catcher, a safe and exciting
finale of your New York City walking tour.
New York City offers more than even the most ambitious visitor could cover in one week.
Investigating hidden treasures in quirky boutiques, strolling the hundreds of fine art galleries,
sampling exotic foods in ethnic neighborhoods, and chatting with friendly New Yorkers turns a
walk on any street into a journey of discovery, often a slow one. Let these four walking tours
guide you and help make New York City your Big Apple; how you slice it will be up to you.
