New York wasn't always the city the world fell in love with.
In the 1970s and 1980s, Midtown was struggling with financial collapse, rising crime, and a fading reputation. Today, it's one of the world's safest and most visited urban centers.
Walk from Grand Central Terminal to Bryant Park, Times Square, Rockefeller Center, Radio City Music Hall, and St. Patrick's Cathedral as you uncover the people, bold decisions, and unlikely partnerships behind one of history's greatest urban comebacks.
Who saved New York? By the end of this tour, you'll have your answer.
Led by a licensed NYC guide and lifelong New Yorker.
