Summary
Before The Beatles, Harry Potter and The Crown, our friends across the Pond held sway on old Manahatta isle, whose (white) people were so enamored with the Royals, the place was nicknamed "Torytown." A historical walk in Lower Manhattan exposing where the first British occupiers stepped foot and the legacy they left. In a near-circular, 1.5 mile walking tour, taking in the origins of the social, financial and political whirl of NYC with hostelries, notable buildings - or their remnants - and the sites of key events like the USA's 1st Congress, the Great Fire of 1776 and, eventually, the expulsion of the royalist Brits. Folx will also get to meet the memories of the original Anglo-Scots eccentrics, including the notorious pirate Captain Kidd and the 1st Governors of the colony, Richard Nicholls and Francis Lovelace.
