Tenement Museum and Immigration



Lil and I had a great day in a part of NYC that we haven't been to in a long while, the L.E.S. area better known as the Lower East Side. The area has always been known as an immigrant area, Jews, Italians, Irish and many other people became Americans from there.

We went to the Tenement Museum at 90 Orchard Street, a fascinating look into the hard life of those who came, "where the streets are paved with gold".
