A Stroll Down Historic East 69th Street

Janes Walk

SOLD OUT, WAITLIST FULL

Led By Jacquelyn Ottman

Stroll down just the two blocks along East 69th Street between Second and First Avenues and experience a microcosm of the history of the entire Upper East Side. This tree-lined block features landmarked brownstones dating to 1879 on the south side, and on the north side, mid-century co-ops defining the Upper East Side lifestyle. Amidst it all, the landmarked Hungarian Reformed Church whose bells still ring each Sunday morning, calling yet another generation of Eastern Europeans to service. Tour is led by Jacquie Ottman, a popular Janes Walk tour guide, 46 year resident of the block and past president of the East 69th Street Association.
