About this event
This popular and exciting walking tour through the East Village and Little Italy explores the former social clubs, homes and haunts of some of the most influential 20th century mobsters, while uncovering the truth behind many mafia legends.
We also discuss the Italian immigrant experience and the social, political and economical conditions which allowed organized gangsterism to thrive in the slums of New York City by the turn of the century.
Take an unbiased look at the Italian underworld with a 4th generation Little Italy native, author of "Manhattan Mafia Guide," and founder of Lower East Side History Project and The Museum of the American Gangster.
Every Wednesday at 10:00am and Sundays at 12:00pm. $30pp, RSVP required.
