The Gilded Divide: Upstairs & Downstairs in Gramercy

Janes Walk

SOLD OUT, WAITLIST FULL

Led By Erin Donnelly, Reel New York City LLC

Beyond the private keys and iron gates of Gramercy Park lies a history of two New Yorks. While the city’s elite promenaded in the square, an army of servants operated out of sight in the basements and garrets. This walk traces the literal and figurative lines that separated the privileged from domestic workers.
