Tenement Museum Apartment Tours

[@Concetta20]

It’s neat that it’s a house museum, not of a manor or chic townhouse, but a tenement.

Thank you for bringing the immigrant stories into life and keeping their inspirational stories, their history and their contributions to our beloved USA.

[@normalperson8484]

Well said!

[@rachelmcmahon9871]

Im coming to NY in November from England. Im definitely coming to see this

[@andywalsh8761]

I visited in November 2023. Fantastic experience and would totally recommend!

[@OursonAaron302]

I plan to visit this fall.

[@andywalsh8761]

@@OursonAaron302 The best museum visit ever. Totally immersive and fascinating. I did the one from 1870 something with the Irish resident family. I could have stayed chatting with the tour guide for hours! Would love to do each tour they offer. Hope you enjoy it as much as I did!

[@klimber10001]

I'm not usually interested in many museums outside of my own area... But I'd love to see this one. To stand in a home where people worked lived and raised their families... What a wonderful way to learn of this countries history.

[@catherinesanchez1185]

Next time I'm going to NY , I'll definitely look into this . Fascinating stuff !!

[@kathiejohns1418]

I absolutely praise this idea of a museum!

[@cmendoza9255]

The courageous people that came here to seek a better life really is what America is about. When I saw the book called " I learn to Write" ..I got emotional. It really tugged at my heart....their hard work and struggles.

[@okie-kan9240]

I love these type of museums. That is so awesome. All of the school children should have to go there once.

[@Kalichar11]

Great video. I want to visit this museum! Thank you for capturing this important part of US history.

[@bethrogers5553]

It’s cool that they have actors and actresses portraying former residents.

[@Dream-bebe]

I plan to visit these museums! ❤😊#NYC

This museum looks fascinating!

Wait, she’s from New Jersey, and now lives on Long Island, yet she’s a “lifelong New Yorker”? A lifelong “New Yorker” is someone who was born in the city and grew up in the city, and still lives in the city (one of the five boroughs).

[@misbah.m]

No she said she is from Long Island but now lives in New Jersey

[@jayflock7446]

New York is a state. You can be from NY and not live in the city.....

[@rron5641]

how is this in anyway different from modern apartments in ny. Like this looks nicer than a lot of crap apartments? What’s the bad part

[@normalperson8484]

It’s about the story and life of immigrants risking to leave their motherland for a new life in a foreign country as they settled into these tenements…

[@swisschalet1658]

Because they have to keep milking their victim storyline

[@Dream-bebe]

@@swisschalet1658 are you an anti immigrant colonizer ???

Kathryn Lloyd is wearing a lovely blouse made from traditional handwoven fabric from Guatemala!

[@cheeseisdelicious111]

Looks fantastic!!!

[@foxmulder4196]

Going up those stairs i just could imagine if it wasn't kept it would actually look like a NYCHA unit😂

[@rickybaumgartner5635]

I loved this video

[@21stCenturyMaggid]

Thank you!

[@aeprice2904]

There is more discussion of the museum tour program than of the actual apartments.

[@gregmcevoy1]

Wonderful.

[@laraparks7018]

We'll have Hoovervilles and tenaments again, 2023

[@ashleymarks3726]

my ancestors were Ashkenazi Jews from Lithuania and Latvia. they came to New York in the late 1800's. I wonder if they lived in one of those buildings.

[@PitsTasteGood]

How in the world are they going to portray a tenement with plenty of shoulder room, and lots of food? Conditions in most tenements were abhorrent. Sickness was common.

[@iankennedy9462]

I mean... I'd live there 😅😅

[@32rumandcoke]

Pss "Educators"?!? They're tour guides. And at 3:07...is that a TV in the corner?

Who built them

[@swisschalet1658]

You’re not allowed to ask that.

[@bonniepwtf]

Interesting

[@kieronevans5150]

In 100 years they will have a museum dedicated to 2024 when working professionals could only afford a walk-in closet in Manhattan

[@josephschmoe2376]

Those proud immigrants sought to enter a land of opportunity through the proper channels, not illegally enter what's now perceived to be the land of a free ride. Big difference.

[@swisschalet1658]

Now there’s nowhere to run to. They’ve ruined the “opportunity”

The immigrant people that lived in these tenements reflect a better life than people born in America at the time who lived in the country or poor states.

[@Susieq26754]

Good Lord. The people who lived here were dirt poor. Only in America, would they make this into a museum. While their are still homeless outside.

[@timbolei5482]

The rederic i think is about immigrants and illegal immigrants.
