To truly know the Village\, you must first get to know the Square and the many historic sites that surround it.  \nThis 75-minute walking tour is a kind of “Washington Square 101” introducing some of the historical and cultural highlights of the territory that borders the Square.  \nIt explores the rich and powerful history of the Square’s neighborhood – from the days of the Lenape Native Americans (who were the first inhabitants of what is now the Village area) through to the more recent times of great modern Village artists such as writer Willa Cather\, painter Edward Hopper and photographer Diane Arbus. \nThe journey begins at the fountain in Washington Square\, where we reflect on the pauper’s graveyard and the still-running creek underneath the surface of the Park – and look up to the sky\, hoping to catch sight of the red-tailed hawks who make the Park their home. Then\, while strolling from the archway around the path encircling the Park\, we make a voyage of stories through which we consider a few of the key Park landmarks along the way… from the nearby site of the horrific Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire to the longtime home of Eleanor Roosevelt and the early hang-outs of Buddy Holly and Bob Dylan. \n\nJohn Sorenson\n\nMeet at the Washington Square Arch\, Fifth Ave & Washington Square North\, New York NY 10012\n\n\n\n \n \n \n BUY TICKETS ON EVENTBRITE URL:https://www.thevillagetrip.com/event/washington-square/ LOCATION:Washington Square Arch at Fifth Avenue & Washington Square North\, NY\, NY 10012\, United States CATEGORIES:2023 Civil Rights,2023 Tour ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://www.thevillagetrip.com/festival/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/Washington-Square-Arch-Postcard.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20230910T130000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20230910T153000 DTSTAMP:20260525T021127 CREATED:20230802T124459Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230805T103926Z UID:10000164-1694350800-1694359800@www.thevillagetrip.com SUMMARY:NYU & Washington Square: Changing Strategies of Growth and Design.
