About:

I specialize in walking tours of Lower Manhattan, The Lower East Side, the Financial District and the site of the former WTC.   These are New York's first settled areas.  Plus Central Park, Greenwich Village and of course Brooklyn.  I was born and raised in Brooklyn; my knowledge of that boro is unsurpassed, by anyone.
