See all formats and editions

The Bowery Boys podcast is a phenomenon, thrilling audiences each month with one amazing story after the next.

Now, ten years after the companion book - The Bowery Boys: Adventures In Old New York, a guide full of exclusive and historical walking tours through Manhattan neighbourhoods - was first published, authors and podcast hosts Tom and Greg are back to lead you through the ever-changing streets of Manhattan once again.

In this 10th anniversary edition, you'll learn about the many changes that Manhattan has undergone in the last ten years.

Historical designations added! At-risk buildings saved! Historic sights demolished. Entire blocks razed. And yet, as you tour through New York's old cobblestone streets and gas-lit back alleyways, you'll also be reacquainted with the many steadfast buildings, staple restaurants, and quintessential streets that have always made and continue to make Manhattan the iconic borough that it is today.

This updated anniversary edition welcomes you to explore new and familiar places alike, including: The slimmest building in the Lower East Side; Caff(c) Palermo and the Cannoli King in Little Italy; The newest oldest church in Battery Park; The Hanging Tree in Washington Square Park; And so much more! And while things may have changed over the past decade, this book reminds us all that the energy that attracted us and millions of others to New York City in the first place is still as irresistible as ever.
