​You're invited to The Tenement Museum

​On August 3rd, we will gather to explore the lives of working-class tenement residents in early 20th-century New York City.

​Please, arrive at the museum at 3:00 pm to proceed with the entry, as at 3:15 pm the Apartment Tour by museum guide will begin.

​About the Tour

​In the early 1900s, when the city and nation saw an unprecedented number of new arrivals, conditions in tenements and factories inspired critical debates about life in cities and the government’s role in housing and workplaces. Trace this period of high immigration and political change through the stories of the Rogarshevskys and the Baldizzis, a Jewish family and an Italian family who became neighbors in 97 Orchard Street.

​About the Museum

​The Tenement Museum welcomes you into the homes of immigrant families and tells the stories of working-class tenement residents who moved to New York City from other countries and other parts of the country. Their work helped build the city and nation, and their stories help us understand our history.
