Sidewalk Secrets of the Upper East Side

Janes Walk

Led By Lia De Feo

I’m a licensed NYC tour guide with a photographer’s eye for discovering treasures hiding in plain sight and a writer’s passion for telling stories. Join me on a captivating walk through the East 80’s where we’ll examine city infrastructure from over 100 years ago, public art with fascinating origins, learn about the trees along the sidewalk, and even stop at a bakery that serves “the best black and white cookies in New York*”. We’ll end by taking a peek inside the very first public library in NYC—the New York Society Library.

We’ll walk about a mile and a half on this 90-minute tour. The walk is mostly flat and all paved. Wear comfortable shoes and bring a camera!

Attendees will have the option of receiving a digital PDF detailing the tour route/information.
