Virtual Tour of the Jewish Lower East Side

Stroll through the neighborhood's 100-year-old history… VIRTUALLY!

If you cannot make it down to the Lower East Side in person for one of our signature Jewish Lower East Side Walking Tours, you're in luck! We are pleased to offer a Zoom tour of the Lower East Side that you can take from the comfort of your home.

A century ago, the Lower East Side saw unparalleled growth as waves of immigrants settled, prayed, played, worked, shopped, and attended school in this neighborhood as they built their new lives in a new land. Today, there are signs of the past hidden within the modern streets.

On October 10th at 6pm EST, join us for a Zoom tour with Museum at Eldridge Street Senior Educator, Scott Brevda, as we follow in the footsteps of these immigrants and tell their stories.

Scott Brevda serves as the Senior Educator and Visitor Services Operations Manager at the Museum at Eldridge Street. As a historian, museum educator, and lifelong New Yorker, Scott loves to bring the history of his native city to life. In his current position, Scott manages the Museum's daily operations and leads, coordinates, and develops education programming. Scott was formerly a Senior Educator at the Tenement Museum and holds a B.A. and M.A. in History from Fordham University.
